I love these cards, I got an EVGA 6800 in 2003ish, and it is still being heavily used by my girlfriend whom can't afford a new computer. After unlocking disabled vertex/pixel shaders she can max out all but the most recent dx11 games.
@pingu1444 They can still operate in DX 9 mode, just not very efficiently as they do not support Open Gl 3 or Direct X 10, nor do they have stream processors. So while it's far more powerful then a Radeon 4200, they will not perform as effectively on, say, Fear 3. I wasn't saying that the cards had DX11, I was stating that I got more than my money's worth when I got the card.
Back in the old days this card was a beast.
