- Reference cards are more likely to be stable, and I encountered problems with the non-reference card I'd purchased.I like the blue protector shields over the HDMI and DVI ports, and for the PCIe connector. Nice touch.This card is fast, though your case's interior bay has to be wider than 10" for this to fit. The Antec 300 case does fit, but space is tight so route any cables properly.Lastly, Amazon.com did not add any cushioning material to the package inside the outer box. When I opened the outer box, I was surprised to see the Gigabyte box with no protection (the plastic air packs). When I removed the card from the Gigabyte box, I noted the front plate was slightly bent at the bottom.…
- Bought this card as an upgrade for my Hackintosh running Lion. I'm not an expert gamer or video editor, however it does everything I ask it to do well. Gaming with the card with maximum resolution set rarely gets the card hot. Converting videos with Handbrake also does well. Get this card for your Hack!
