Thanks for posting this as it saved me the time in doing so.
When you consider that a mere over-clocked 8600 GT 256MB managed 175 degrees of heat over the weekend and this is over twice as fast for less than £15 more go and figure how hot this should be! Benchmarks here - http://www.legitreviews.com/article/591/1/ A 300W power supply will be fine unless you have a monster over-clocked CPU but you will need a 6 pin PCIe power connector or adapter. |

I agree, the 8600GT wasn't a hot deal for me, this card is way faster, or this http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/17874...d-2/:thumbsup: |

Excellent graphics card, im using the MSI 3850 512mb and it will play any game i throw at it all on high settings apart from crysis which is fine on medium/high  unless your playing on a v.low res i dont see how this card can play crysis even on medium! |
