Hey thanks for the great reviews... The information on the thermal paste problem was a great asset to me. I recently purchased this card 2400GT GS.... to replace a 5600GT from Gainward. Once installed the 2400GT seemed to be running hot, idle was about 61 degrees. I recalled this review and I dismantled the card and found that only about 2/3 of the GPU was coverd with thermal paste. I fixed that and the card runs at 50 degrees now..... Thanks again....

By the way I love the card and only had a small problem mounting it.... I use a Gigabyte GA8-IPE1000 Pro2... the video card does interfere with one of the SATA conectors. A small piece of the shroud on the card had to be removed to allow the conector to be inserted.
