Runs great. What else can I say.. The stock Sapphire cooler does a better job than I was expecting (I'm kind of biased against stock coolers). Through an entire 15-min 1920x1080 burn-in benchmark on FurMark1.10.1 with an ambient of around 28C, temps didn't rise above 77C. The next day, after my testing and "breaking it in," I set this up in Crossfire with my HD6850 I already had—I'm so grateful that this Sapphire came with a Crossfire bridge!—and everything ran smoothly from the get-go. Performance now is amazing. At the sale price I got this card, I am extremely happy with this investment and am pleased with the performance of Sapphire's card and cooler.

I got this card to replace my 8800GT, and it provided an immediate improvement in performance. It runs much cooler than my old card did, though the cooling fan does at times make a little more noise than it used to. This card gave my E8400 rig at least another year of life for my gaming needs (at 1680x1050).

Good videocard, good performance for the money paid. Would recommend it to a friend for sure. Get it if on limited budget and want good performance overall.

I usually change the cooling of those beast with anything Zalman can make to fit on it... but that thing is soooo quiet it's amazing. And the power it deliver is great as well

Got this on sale for $150, runs pretty smoothly most games on 1920X1080, tempted to try out 2 of these in Crossfire when it goes on sale again. Had some problems with drivers.
