Best card for the money! no contest
Strengths: This card is the best 8800gt available, hands down. It is next to silent, and extremely fast. You won't find a better 8800gt for the money.
Weakness: the minor problem that many other people have talked about was the plastic fan guard hitting the fan. All you have to do is move it away from the fan a very small amount and you'll be good to go.
This 8800gt uses a zalman designed cooler, and not only does it enable for some extreme overclocking, but it does that all while keeping it cool and silent. I can't even hear the card over my 3 case fans. You can't go wrong with this card. All your games will run buttery smooth if you pair this up with a nice core 2 duo.
