Pros:
High frame rates per seconds.
GDDR5.
Cons:
Stuttering and laggy.
Ugly colour and look.
Rather stick with my 2 8800GTX's.
I don't have a long story to tell because I sold the card 1 week after i got it. I wanted to "upgrade" from my two 8800gtxs which have served me long and well. When i actually did upgrade I was disappointed with the ugly grayish look of the card and when i popped it into my machine all the problems i had with having to reformat my drive to get it to work properly. When I got it working it ran very well on the FPS (frame rates per second) side of it but I was unimpressed with all the lagish stuttering it had in some games. I know i'm an Nvidia man and the mistake i made now will surely not repeat.

Staying with Nvidia all the way...
