This customer review is funny

Pros: Let me tell you a story about a lil card called the 4850... it made nvidia cry because it cost half the price for the same performance... the money saved was used to save the little town of ATI from the evil doers of Nvidia. They bought an E8400 and some DDR3 1333 to fight off the nasties.... the nvidia's extra 3 frames per second did nothing in the bloody battle. A little overclocking sent the Nvidia demons running in dispair as the little town of ATI rested peacefully for ever... thank you 4850!
Cons: none... you guys aren't downloading the lastest bios updates... that's why your cards are hot... NEVER USE ATI DRIVERS INCLUDED IN THE BOX!! download drivers from asus.com
Other Thoughts: oc'd 725 gpu & 1120 vRAM paired with an e8400 oc'd to 3.7ghz makes for a result in greatness. WARNING: underestimating this card will leave you hiding in your closet sucking your thumb trying to forget why your mother beat you for not taking good deals...
