ZOTAC GeForce GTX 580 AMP! 1536MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 Dual DVI/mini HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card, ZT-50102-10P

, at 5/29/2012

I purchased this several months ago to replace my aging EVGA 8800s. It was part of an overall upgrade to my rig and probably my favorite component. I was only slightly concerned that I had been using EVGA and liked the brand but wasn't familiar with Zotac. I can keep this short and sweet and say this card is blazing fast. I have new games maxed out on graphics and it maintains a high FPS. I am purchasing another one of these to SLI them together in anticipation of Battlefield 3.I'll also happily recommend Zotac as a brand.. I'm very happy with this card and the tools that come to control it. I don't tweak anything further but the GUI provided is very easy to use and monitors temperatures if you're one of the tweaking types. I'm running at around 70 degrees fully maxed out at the moment. Be aware that I also have an Antec 1200 case which includes 7 fans. I strongly suggest a cool case. In addition to this I'm using an 850W power supply by Corsair and recommend a high-end power supply to…

Zotac 810MHz/3608MHz GeForce GTS 450 1 GB GDDR5 128-bit PCI Express Graphic Card ZT-40501-10L

Bought this card when it was on sale; great card for the value! I needed a fast, DX11 card and this fit the bill perfectly
Doesn't run too hot and much quieter than I expected. With no extra cooling built into the card I was afraid that it would either run hot, sound like a jet or fail from the heat...none of that happened. When you consider the price and the fact that Zotac is not as well known as some of the other brands I think this is a great buy.

ZOTAC nVidia GeForce GT240 AMP! 512 MB DDR5 VGA/DVI/HDMI PCI-Express Video Card ZT-20405-10L

I bought this for my HP PC that came with built in Nvidea 9100 graphics. It has boosted the graphics capability dramatically, with experience scores from 4 to 6.8. More importantly, the performance in games is excellent. Bioshock and Silent Hunter IV run at max detail settings on my 20" monitor at native resolution of 1440X900. The card is quiet and only heard when playing the above graphics intensive games. All in all, an excellent card to upgrade a mid-level system.
I bought this card to replace a dying GeForce 8600GT, and the difference between the two cards is dramatic. Frame rates have more than doubled. HAWX plays smoothly with no jarring or hesitations. Moreover, the temperature of the GPU rarely rises above 120F and usually hovers around 105F. The card is solidly built and well laid out, with the fan placed amid the large heatsink.My choice of card was limited by the power of the PSU -- 300 watts. I could have upgraded the PSU, but for my needs the GT240 works well enough. I strongly recommend downloading the latest drivers from Nvidia. The installation disc contains separate PhysX divers, which should be avoided like poison. I initially had problems…

Everything worked as intended on the first try, the board fit easily inside the case, and was able to overclock with plenty of headroom, which means this was well designed.
