I bought this card to go with the new PC I was building:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 Quad Core 2.5
Asrock P45 Mother Board
4GB DDR3
and obviously the GX2 9 9800
It runs really nicely and I'm getting great framerates even on Crysis on High. As reccomended in another review I used the EVGA tool and I have 4 fans on my case and I'm running at around 70C at peak loads so I'm pretty pleased.
A downside is that this card requires a PSU with an 8 pin PCI-E connector which are normally quite expensive however you can get a 6 Pin - 8Pin converter so you may should be able to use your current PSU.
Overall, great card!
Good Card, Amazing Value

PNY 9800 GX2 GF Card
This is a great GF card, plays Call Of Duty 5 easily at 1680x1050 with everything on full.
Basically all these GX2 cards are the same except the price, buy a BFG at £329 buy this card at £199. It's a no brainer really!!
The only thing that I knocked 1 point off for is that it runs really hot. Like the guy above I downloaded an app to change the fan speed. The one I downloaded was free from EVGA & have the fan cranked up to about 68%, you can barely hear it at that speed & both cores run at about 55 'c under normal load & about 70'c when playing Call Of Duty 5.
Mind you, I had a 1/2 hour blast on COD4 last night & when I'd finished & looked at the EVGA app I noticed that both cores had been running at 90'c. Ran fine though. No glitches!!
Great but gets very HOT!!
