Rating: - Great card, very fast, runs everything.
Before running this card I bought a water block for it. I can run full tilt for hours and the temp never rises above about 45C. I would not recommend running a card like this without water cooling. Also, the Swiftech cooler for these sucks, Don't waste your money. Get the Koolance, you will not be sorry for the added expense. I can't say enough good about the card with the above warnings. GO WATER!!!!!

Rating: - Overheats like madddd
Unfortunately this card overheated within 3 minutes of playing any recent game. Crysis, Call of Duty 4, even Heroes of Might and Magic. Returned for replacement, got another one and it lasted about 2 minutes longer. It didn't just lock up my computer, it shut it down completely. Also made crackling sounds come out of my speakers when I had headphones in.
Rating: - This card sucks
Whenever this card reaches 70 degrees C, it will lock up playing games like Call of Duty 4 on Vista. It doesn't matter which nVidia driver is used, the problem is that this graphics card will always lock up with the driver not responding. I've seen other GeForce 8800 Ultras reach over 90 C and no problems but this one locks at 70.
