Excellent One Slot Card
Strengths: Excellent price ~$140 (good price in this performance range), Silent fan, Cool design (blue color), came with lots of connector/cables. Easy install. Consume only one PCI-Express slot.
Weakness: None so far, but no 7-pin to 4-pin s-video adapter which makes 4-pin s-video cable useless. Keep in mind that it does not support DX10.
If you’re looking for an affordable high-end graphic card, this would be a right choice. I bought this after two years of using ATI Radeon 9800Pro with satisfaction. What I don’t like about ATI card is I have to install .net framework version 2.0 or better before I can install ATI driver with no error. If not, I have to uninstall the driver and reinstall again after I install .net framework...

Incorrect offer
Strengths: none
Weakness: It's not the correct card
I've checked every one of these links and none of them take me to a crossfire edition of ANY kind. The card it takes you to is Crossfire ready but not the Crossfire Edition card you need to run in conjunction with a Crossfire Ready card. I hope no-one has ordered this already and thinking they are getting an x1950 CE video card.

X1950 PRO CrossFire Edition Video Card
Strengths: A powerful video card, pure gaming heaven!!
Weakness: too big, can't put the second HD in the bay
This is what gamers have been waiting for since Crossfire was introduced. ATI has done away with the dopey dongles and external adapters. The connections are now bi-directional and internal.
The performance on the new chipset is astonishing. The 1950pro Crossfire can certainly give the 8800GTX a run for its money.

Good Video Card
Strengths: Silent fan, Many connectors and cables included, Good price
Weakness: No 7-pin to 4-pin s-video
This is a nice video card. I bought it about two months ago and I am very satisfied with the picture quality. I had my friend installed it for me and he said that the installation is a little complicated because it needs .net framework before driver installation. Except for that everything is very good. Highly reccommended.

Good price to take
Strengths: Very powerful ATi graphic card with cheap price
Weakness: Too hot and noisy fan
No DX.10 support, but it's a great product to support DX.9.
Compare with NVida 7900GS, it has better performance even with higher price. But it's a great time to purchase this card as the price is dropped.
