Defective (Near DOA)

When I ordered this card, I was thinking I was getting the deal of a lifetime. Too bad it was defective. At first I couldn't get it to boot (even with a 650W Thermaltake PSU) After a bit of fidgeting I was able to get it to boot. After making sure it boots, and it can run perfectly fine for low resource tasks. However I would start up Dead Space 3 or Saints Row the Third and after about five minutes (even on the menus) it would split the image and render the game unplayable. If it worked, it would have been a five star item. Instead I opted for the 7850 which fits in my case better anyways.

Item arrived defective.

Was really excited to get the card, especially for the price. Unfortunately it arrived defective. After 10 minutes of use, the screen would split in half and the only way to fix it was to restart the computer. Contacted Visiontek, and although they were friendly, they were unable to help me. They adviced that i return it back for a refund or replacement.

Great Value

I bought this for $190 on Black Friday Weekend. It seems very high quality and very high performance. You will need a powerful power supply with at least 2 six pin pci power plugs for this card.550 watt+
