description

Better than reality. Gaming "reality" was once defined as having a graphics card that could deliver true-to-life images... until complex images or more than one character entered the scene. Now, with XFX's GeForce GTX 200 graphics cards, you can experience truly immersive 3D gaming experience that will make your heart race and your palms sweat. Harnessing the power of second generation unified architecture, SLI technology and top-of-the-line DirectX 10 support, an in-your-face experience, delivered in blazing fast frame rates, is yours. Real life has never been this realistic.

Great card, and great service!
Reviewed by m00c0w. Review Posted 04/10/2009

Just to confirm, this IS the newer 216 core model. Beast of a card, thought i was going to have to by a new case at first, hardly fit in, but with a little fiddling its in. great service from dabs, paid for next day delivery, and indeed it arrived next day, unlike a couple of other retailers i could mention. first time buyer, will definitly be using dabs for future purchases! thanks, Callum

Fals Start But Happy Ending
Reviewed by Ratio. Review Posted 01/08/2009

This card is one of the best out there for the money and is on a par with any GTX 280 when it comes to performance as stated in earlier reviews and the Double Lifetime Warrenty should be a major selling point in its self. However I would like to highlight and confirm a statement made by one reviewee that some Black Edition cards are faulty as my first card was, from the research I did I found a number of references to a high heat intolerence in the said cards. After testing it in two rigs with Furmark the thresh hold was confirmed at 72oC. Dabs didn't hesitate in sending me a new card and I have had no problems since. I would highly recommend this card and the customer service not only with Dabs but with XFX themselves.
