GIGA-BYTE GF GTX 550 TI OC 1GB PCI-E 1GB 900MHZ GDDR5 DVI VGA HDMI

Overall, this is a very good card. I'm really enjoying it.

I needed to get a little more life out of my old desktop, and the graphics card that came with it just wasn't cutting it. I knew it was PCI-Express, but I had no idea if it was PCIe 1 or 2. I think it's 1, but this card works and looks GREAT ;...

Not really any cons. I'm guessing if you're looking at this card you're trying to do minor upgrades like I did to get more life out of your machine ; I would mention, it's easier to download the drivers before you switch out the cards

Since I have only had this card for less than 3 weeks I have not gotten a chance to fully put it through its paces.

I have been building systems for about 7 years now so I have a pretty good idea of what I am doing ; This card has cut my transcoding time in half. I transcode a lot of .mov files ranging from 10~15 minutes to .mp4 format for use on my phone and...

2 days after I ordered it and had not received this card from UPS, the EVGA 01G-P3-1370-KR GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 card was only $20 bucks more!!!! Without a rebate though. It did have free shipping but only over that weekend. After...

Using OEM AMD Processor P II 970 @ 4088. Hyper 212 cooler. 8gb of inexpensive ram (2 sticks) @ 8 9 8 25 34 2T, DDR3 1473.2. Processor and this GPU as of now pretty much exactly the same price. A 8+2 phase board-take your pick for $100-110. DDR3 1600...

Within the quest to build the best FSX flight Sim at reasonable cost, i flew the little brother heatsink-similar GTS 450 Gigabyte for quite some time as I worked on getting the AMD quad core platform optimized -overclock and ram-wise. The hard work...

It runs a bit warmer than the 450 (they have the same Fan/Heatsink solution,) 50* vs 48* (i'm in a cold room),but -not a con! Compare a classic GTX 285... they run the game in the 58's to 62'+s (fan cranked). Does not have two DVI outs, but does have...

Quiet and runs pretty cool. The heat sink and fan assembly is a little bulky but get the job done. Runs at 44C at idle and 55-60 at full load

Need to trash install cd and download new nvidia drivers

Handles every game i throw at it ; cod, crysis2, and i will be playing bf3 soon ; great quality

nothing

Will be installing Windows tommorrow maybe and testing it out on other games.

Easy to install, Huge upgrade from my Geforce 8400 GS, Plays nice with Minecraft. With around 40-50 FPS using a 256x Texture Pack in full screen in Linux, so it might do better in Windows

Nothing

If your looking for a budget/high end GPU look no further I feel like this was a homerun on Gigabyte's behalf totally satisfied as of yet and intend on buying another for SLi buy buy buy buy :P

Handles everything I can throw at it on Ultra High Settings Skyrim 1920x1200 at 40fps UtraHigh Settings ; BattleField 3 1920x1200 at 38fps Highest Video Settings ; Mass Effect 2 1920x1200 at 40fps Highest Video Settings ; I haven't tried 3D as of yet...

None as of yet .... well maybe that I don't have another for SLi setup but that can be accomplished for a meer addition $120
