Strengths: Fast !!! this card runs twice as fast as my older TI4200 little brother in 3D Mark 03
Weakness: Driver...what do I need to say. This card cannot recognize my monitor so I have to spend extra time and load up Pnp driver to force it to work.

Weakness: Have to register to get 3-year warranty? Some odd problem with DVI main monitor at bootup.

Right now this is the best value in terms of price/performance ratio. Only about 10-15% slower than the Pro and XT cards, for way less money. I've only run BF:V so far but it runs well. Shame it only does 1280x960--I think that is a DX9 problem and not an...
