Bought it used for a great price. Works perfectly and meets all my needs! It's much quieter than other people claimed it to be. The only downside is that it does indeed run very hot; but that's just how the GTX 480 is. Overall a great product and I would definitely recommend it! Just remember that it has 2 DVI-I ports and one *mini* HDMI port, not regular HDMI.

This item came with a damaged contact that was not disclosed before purchase. My current PC is not current enough to run this strong of a graphics card so I don't know if it works but it was a great price. I'm going to take the gamble and hope that it works when I upgrade PC's. Here's hoping.

Runs markedly better than my GTX 295. Is much better than a 5870 if running high resolution (1920x1200 and above). ATI cards don't even have support for high levels of anti-aliasing (i.e. 32x). Runs games in 32xAA, DX11 without much of a performance hit, maybe 10%, would like to see any other card currently out do that.. Don't believe the so called heat issues, runs about the same temps as my GTX 295, sometimes ~90C, which is well under spec, but the card idles around 50C. If you want a "futureproof" card, or something close, get this to have support for latest DX11 games, with support for tesselation and PhysX.
Read alot a review for the Nvidia GTX 480 and finally decide to purchase one after the GTX 500 launch, The GPU accelerate many popular PC games with excellent frame rate, and graphics just look incredible on the GTX 480, but it does run a bit hot, so long as you have a adequate ventilation in the tower case you should be fine. Overall, I was satisfy with the choosing the GTX 480 as a hard core gaming card, sure there may be better and faster video card, but it will break your wallet and bank account to buy one. Just buy this one and you won't be dissapointed.
Great product, running in SLI now, max fps on everything. Too bad they stopped manufacturing these because they came out with the 580s, which are overclocked 480s...and for triple the price. 580s/590s are a scam to make you think you are buying some new and improved, when all you have to do is a minor overclock. Dirty move by NVIDIA. No one can deny this because its fact.
the cards performance is the best ive ever had it handled any game I installed maxed out in 1080p including bfbc2, just cause 2, and even crysis however it gets really hot...and I mean really hot to the point to where you could literally grille steak on it....so with the right tower and cooling you will be fine but keep in mind the rumors of it getting hot are all true other than that the card is amazing
This 5 years old works like charm if you're doing light gaming or don't play on Ultra settings, runs hot (around 90C) but it's powerful.

I really like it I just play wow though so I'm afraid that I'm not really testing it. I also do some photo editing seems to run photo shop well too but I'm pretty basic in this regard. I can say that it runs many applications simultaneously like a champ as I will almost always be doing on thing on each of my three monitors.
with this card you can max everything. nonetheless, you won't be able to max Crysis and get 60 FPS, you'll only get 40 fps. the heat is very bad so you need a good case. on my haf 932 it reaches 90°C on full load. you can play MEtro 2033 on very high without problems.
Very nice card. I have two rigs and one has 3-way sli using 3 GTX SSC 285's and 2 of these blows it away. I don't have the heat issues that most people have because I water cool which is the only way to go. I highly recommend this card.
