PC HD6850 stock
Price in Amazon pretty steep so bought this from an independent reseller.DX11 is absolutely gorgeous, I tested it using Black Ops and blood gore never looked so good.Full-load the fan noise sounds like a turbine engine, totally noisy, thinking of either bypassing the fans connection to the card and splice a fan controller or surround the case tower with honeycomb cardboard to minimize noise.(edit: turns out, the noise came from the stock CPU fan, replaced it with a ...

Nice upgrade
This card was an upgrade from a Nvidia Geforce GT220 that I had in a stock rig. I was concerned a bit about the potential size issues as well as power consumption because my machine is a mini-tower and only has a 500W power supply but the card fit fine (had to move a bit around but it worked) and haven't had any issues with power so far.I also purchased mine from a 3rd party retailer because the price was much lower than it is here and came with Deus Ex: Human Revolutions. I am absol...

This card will support Battlefield 3!!!
I received a copy of Battlefield 3 for Christmas. The older Nvidia cards in my system were not able to run the Battlefield 3 game.:( This card, the ATI Radeon HD6850, was very easy to install. In addition, I've had a chance to over-clock the card using MSI Afterburner. The card stays cool and runs without problems. The price is very good for this card and yes it supports Battlefield 3. Game on!!

Powercolor does it right
I bought this directly as part of a computer from CyberPowerPC, but they sell a similar configuration on Amazon: CyberpowerPC Gamer Xtreme GXi220 Desktop Computer.Both share the Powercolor 6850.I was nearly feeling like this was a waste of money, when I realized that someone (not me!) had plugged my monitor into the Intel on-board graphics. No wonder my Windows Experience number was so bad.A quick reconnect, and I was finally seeing the benefit of the video ca...

Check your case size!
This GPU is 9" long and will take up two expansion slots on the back of your case, so make sure your computer tower is large enough to accommodate it.I bought it for Star Wars: The Old Republic and get an average of 70 FPS at 1600x900 resolution, bloom and shadow turned on, and all graphics settings at high. Haven't yet seen the card heat to over 40 degrees Celsius.

Impressive upgrade from HD5770
I purchased this to replaced a dying HIS Radeon HD5770 (fan was starting to screech).I was originally concerned that the additional power consumption of the HD6850 would generate more heat. However, I am totally impressed by this card. The fan is nearly silent and my old favorite (Battlefield 1942 HD) plays in perfect 1920x1600 with all settings max'ed out including highest quality AA Catalyst settings.Nearly silent operation and seems to run really cool compared to the...

Best bang for the buck out there!
I bought this card expecting pretty good performance. I was shocked when I actually tried running it. With overclocking, the card will run games like GTA IV, Planet Side 2, Far Cry 3, and Just Cause 2 at High-Ultra settings. The card remains fairly cool during overclocking and gaming. I've never seen the temps go beyond 70 degrees celcius (I do have a case fan located right next to it though.) While playing lower gpu-intensive games, temps run anywhere from 40-50 degrees celcius. I am planning o...

Good for BF3
I got this new for like $130 I think so now its way higher. On medium BF3 it goes between 45-60 with 60 capped because of vsync. I would love to get another one and be able to play ultra with 60 fps consistently but the price has gone up too high. Maybe Ill get once from not powercolor. Powercolor was $10 cheaper at the time I got it. Don't try overclocking it to AMD Overdrive's limit. This card can't handle it you will crash. I have amazing airflow in my case antec 900 and it could not handle i...
