Best upgrade dollars I've ever spent

Strengths: -Reasonable price point (05/08 avg $150AR) -Great performance -Best card warranty out there -Package included full Company of Heroes game

Weakness: -Card is long. Make sure you have room in case and a dedicated 6-Pin PCI power connector

My system (yes, it's about 2 yrs old)- Pentium D 820 Dual Core 2.8Ghz,800FSb, 2gig Dual Channel 533Mhz DDR2, Windows XP SP2, SBlaster X-Fi 500W Rosewill Stallion ATX12v v2.2 PSU Old Vid Card: EVGA 256MB 7600GT GDDR3 Before removing my old card I did benchmarks with 3dmark03 and 3dmark06 Installing the XFX card was relatively easy. It's almost twice as long as my old 7600 and required a dedicated...

best midpriced video card available

Strengths: great performance, double lifetime warranty (you and next owner), single slot card

Weakness: gpu fan is locked @ 29%, currently still uses a smaller, gpu fan; many retailers are price gouging 8800gt cards

the 8800gt gpu series offers the best best price/performance currently available. it is better than the older 8800gts and offers performance that is competitive with the gtx series. the price and performance of this line of gpu's has made the 8800gt a very popular item. this series' popularity has resulted in retailer price gouging, which has made this once $250 card closer to $300. still,...

GeForce 8800 GT Video Card (512MB, PCI Express x16,...

Strengths: Extremely capable video card, can handle the latest graphic intensive games like Crysis, double-lifetime warranty.

Weakness: None so far

The XFX GeForce 8800GT Video Card is one the best buys on the market today. It actually performs better in many areas than a GeForce GTS or GTX card. I upgraded from a BFG GeForece 7900 GT OC and am very happy with the performace of the XFX card. It handles Crysis at high settings with no problem at all. With the BFG card I could only run the game on medium settings. The card is easy to overclock...

Strong Card, better than the current 8800GTS series

Strengths: Great support from XFX, 65 nm technology Strong Benchmark performance

Weakness: Cost, Requires Windows Vista for DX10 support (Microsoft's limitation)

Many of the 8800GT cards are roughly the same technology, offering the same GPU, with the same RAM speeds, and the same IO. However, XFX rises above the herd by offering higher quality components, as seen in their "double lifetime" warranty. This, along with the great performance / price of the card, makes it a must-have. You, and the person to whom you sell the card are both covered for life. If...

Bang For The Buck

Strengths: - Handles any game I throw at it- OC's well

Weakness: - Cost was over MSRP- Gets a little hot

I purchased the card for $229.99 now the the companies are raising the prices.Some companies are even charging more than the MS do. Just sad it really is. Hope the price drop down soon because I'd like to get another

XFX 8800 GT 512MB

Strengths: fast card, best warranty in the market

Weakness: none so far

This is the best bang for the buck if you are a computer gamer. 8800GT is so affordable than ever before. For less than $150 (with rebate and etc.) you could almost play every game smoothly. Plus XFX has the best of the best warranty - double lifetime! it justs keeps the resale value of the card, coz you know you are gonna upgrade in no more than 2 years when new generations come out.

Amazing Graphics Card

Strengths: Almost everything, Warranty from XFX

Weakness: Pricey

I got this to upgrade my old graphics card. This card is amazing. It can handle almost any game even at high frame rates. The build quality is very nice. Never faced any issue about any type of incompatibility. I have VISTA on my comp. The card comes with Double lifetime warranty which is the best warranty a graphics card company can offer. The warranty is valid even if you overclock it. The...

WOW!

Strengths: Powerful graphics, double lifetime-warranty, dual dvi, includes game

Weakness: Price! Runs Hot! Card is too long, Fan is loud

Finally splurge and bought myself a near high-end graphics card for my gaming needs at the time. This card totally fulfills it. Crysis runs great and smooth with the settings all on high. Double lifetime warranty is a great bonus, helps cut down cost if and when I choose to upgrade again. The stock cooling is too loud for my taste, seems like its running on high all the time. Will be going for an...

XFX 8800 GT video card

Strengths: compact, single slot

Weakness: still expensive

I had quite a hard time finding this 8800 GT video card from online merchants, i.e. finding it at MSRP. Most sell this above MSRP. I bought this because of the favorable reviews out there. This does not take a lot of space in your computer real estate.

Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS | 512 MB

The GeForce 8800 GTS is an upper-tier model in Nvidias 8 series of mid-range, consumer desktop graphics cards. The SLI-ready 8800 GTS is available with 320, 512 or 640 MB of memory. With DirectX 10 support, even the 320MB GeForce 8800 GTS should run most of 2009s mainstream PC games with ease, although perhaps not at the highest detail settings, while the 640MB model would be more suited to...

The new GeForce 8800 GT is not only considerably faster than the 8800 GTS, but amazingly it is also much cheaper.
