BFG GTS250 1024MB OC revision B

Well I finally got around to finishing the games machine build.

Its a repurpose of a machine and is an Intel Q8200 (2.33GHz) with 4GB OCZ Gold DDR2, 320GB Seagate SATA, Gigabyte P5Q motherboard. It used to have a pants ATi card, but yesterday I found a BFG Nvidia based GTS250 card and wow I am impressed.

I am running Call Of Duty: World at War and have it maxed out on my screen at 1920×1080 with 4xAA/16xAF all options at max quality. During normal MP Gaming I am seeing 80-120fps.

The card is pretty quiet under load and isnt a power hog either (it does need 2×6pin PCIe power cables). The OCZ Modstream 600 is happy with this setup.

I paid €185 locally here in Malta which is a bargain (local prices range from €200 to €220).

all in all I give this card 5/5
