This is the card I have.

It runs GREAT, although a little hot even at idle. But everyone that has ones says the same, so I am not too concerned. I just bought an Antec pci slot fan and plopped it under the video card for some extra cooling. Seems to have worked b/c my idle temps went from around 62-64 down to around 58 (before overclocking).
As far as overclocking goes. I download coolbits 2.0 for forceware and hit the auto overclock. It jumped the setting from core350mhz->414mhz and memory1ghz->1.15ghz. Those specs made me a little nervous, so I scaled them down to 385mhz and 1.08ghz. The card runs great and doesn't get that much hotter.
I paid $285 from Monarch b/c it was on sale a few weeks back. I used
www.pricewatch.com to keep an eye on the $$$. But $303 isn't so bad.
