Top of the line performance, Gigabye scores again with another passive video card

Pros Fantastic performance with modern games, Passive = Silent, 45C maximum idle: 80C maximum...
Cons Large heavy cooler and heatpipes, blocks adjacent port on rear of card
Recommended it? Yes

Recommended it? No

This product review will be fairly short, as was the product life. I had wanted a better graphics card than the old 64 mb card I had, and this was seemingly a good product, 256 mb of memory, and was Vista ready. Its a AGP card, requires a power supply off the computers power, and requires your... Read full review »
