- The card is fine, does the job but...-Automatic fan speed is not enough to keep the card cool at 100% load, It will reach 80C in no time while playing and it's going to reset itself every time gets close to that temp, and the Firestorm (Zotac's program to overclock and control fan speed)s#$%#!, 2 possible solutions, download EVGA Precsicion, customize the fan speed, change the curve temp vs fan speed in a way it gets faster everytime the temp gets higher but is gonna be LOUD, like you have a jet in your room, or buy a video card cooler, it will run quieter and you will have better temp control. I have a well vent case, it is a cooler maste HAF and still have some temp problems with this card…
- I purchased this video card last week for about $120, and I have to say this is a great video card for the money. This card plays every game in 1900x1200 with all the bells and whisles turned on. I thought I needed 2 of these cards in SLI to play PC games in high resolution, but I was wrong, this card rocks all my games with ease, unreal.You dont need a 560, 570, or 580 card, this card does it all with ease, paired up with my AMD 6 Core CPU and 12gigs of DDR3 memory.I highly recommend it.
