I have been using this card for the last year after upgrading from my 8600gt. This one required additional power from the PSU but after reading around i thought it was a pound for pound very good graphics card. I have used it occassionaly for gaming and to be honest it has done well and have a dual monitor display set up. What i dont expect from Nvidia is for it to die on me after just over 14months of buying it. I expect 3 year minimum really. I am not happy and it cost me a morning of downtime trying to fix and diagnose the problem. Maybe i got a bad one but considering i didnt feel i had tested it that much, i thought value for money was pretty poor overall.
