- I ordered this card to upgrade my Dell Precision 370 so that I could use it as a gaming box. I installed the card in my cpu and it was able to give me signal off of the HDMI port right out of the box. Of course I downloaded the drivers but I was very happy that I could hook it up to my 40" Sony Bravia right away to look for them online. The card runs fairly quiet. You can hear the fan but I was surprised how quiet it was for such a large fan. Overall I am very happy with it.
- I bought this card because the 9800GT that came with my HP computer gave up the ghost after 2 years. I've been extremely happy with the performance of the 9800...it runs everything that has come out in the past 2 years with graphics quality maxed out and at 1920x1200. The thing I didn't like about the original one was that it had a large heat sink and a cheap little fan to cool it, which is what I attribute to it's demise. This card, on the other hand, has a monster of a fan. The picture that some user submitted with the gigantic black fan on this card is the same as what I received. (120mm maybe?) For it's size it is very quiet.The card takes up 2 slots in the machine, so keep that in mind…
