Awesome mid-range video card

Nov 28, 2007 - By A. Quintero (PA United States)

I switched from an ATI X1950GT and didn't really think that it would make such a difference to switch to the GeForce 8600, boy was I wrong!!! Now all my games(Half Life 2, Gears of War, Call of Duty2, Supreme Commander,Quake 4,FEAR...) run smooth and without lag. I am sure that the frame rates could be better and even smoother with the GeForce 8800 but who can afford that if you have real bills like me and when it is double the price of this card. This card is definitely the card to get to get the bang for your buck and then some!!!!

Awesome Video Card

Jun 30, 2007 - By K. Hoyal

Went from a Nvidia 6150LE onboard with lots of problems playing games. But now I can play games like Oblivion, World of Warcraft, and others at really high resolution. Not choppy at all.

not bad but was expecting more

Oct 5, 2007 - By V. L. Rodriguez (Panama, Panama)

I bought this card replacing my Nvidia 7300, of course the card a lot faster but was kind of expecting more. is a good card for the price but if you want to play the latest games with full dx10 you better get a 8800gts. One of the reason that I decided for the 8600 gts was that it supports DX10. But the truth is that DX demads more from your video card and for me, the 8600 gts is still short. so at the end you will end up playing with DX9c because of performance.
I hope this one gets resolved with better drivers

The best graphics card in cheapest price

Sep 7, 2007 - By Moh'd Jassim Hasan Sanad (Bahrain)

The best thing in this graphics card that its support direct X 10 which is the latest graphics programs in the computer games.I test it on two games FEAR and Lost Planet and it was a very good.More over you can use it as SLI.
