Didnt work for me

i bought this item last nov dec time and it worked for a while but this last week it suddenly stopped working it was a great unit while it lasted but buying something this expensive($200)i would expect it to outlast its warranty of 3 years instead it died inside of 3 months. Advise stress it as much as possible to make sure it works as soon as you get it, if it hold up then you have a good one.

above average, plays everything, bad drivers

Good card, plays all my games on high settings but the drivers still need work. sometimes games freeze but only for a split second. 'Gears Of War PC' has an under water effect when turning around to fast. I'm worried about Kepler being that the drivers for GTX560 series aren't even completed. I struggled with the no sound issue which is popular on the forms, g00gle it. For Nvidia's sake i hope this is just a Gigabyte issue. Will do more research.

Awesome price vs performance

Pros: This card runs Skyrim at high settings with only 6gb of ddr2 800mhz and an Athlon dual core 3.1 ghz processor. It is definetly carrying the weight. some of my settings are actually on ultra. Pricepoint is great for this card. Wish I would have bought TI though lol. Cons: Advertised as needing only 500 watt psu. That's a lie. I had 600 watt ultra and it wouldn't run. I could run windows, but I couldn't game it would black out and shut down. Anyhow I bought an 850 watt psu and wow nice card. Also doen't overclock as well as I'd like it to. Great Bang for the buck at $179.00 with Arkam City.

Excellent GPS

I replaced a GTS250 with the GTX560. The gts250 always ran hot at 48 to 52C. This card runs at 28 to 30c. Excellent for the price.

great bang for your buck!

Runs BF3 in high settings, WOW, Skyrim, every other game I have with no problems. Fans are quiet, easily overclockable. Don't use the mini hdmi connection so no ccomments there. Replaced a EVGA 9800GT with this GTX560..over 2 months running smooth so far. Great bang for your buck!
