i have xfx 8600GT udf7 model which is quite commonly available in the market.

1)its working but severely overheats. goes beyond 100C sometimes . many times crosses 90C
2) ya , i have it. ^^
3) it costed me 8k wen i bought it in june07. now its around 5k
4) its enough for COD4 . u cant run crysis with eyecandy . it wont run crysis well enough. but it runs crysis in mid-low settings.

my advice. stay away from xfx for 8600GT . if u can get xfx 8600GT udd3(7) or use3(7) models , get them . stay away from udf7(3) models.
get POV/galaxy 8600GT if ur budget is around 5k.
8600GT doesnt need a gr8 psu . it runs well on local smps as well . if u have enough money , get a zebronics 500/400W pure platinum

if u can extend ur budget upto 14k , get xfx 8800GT.

if ur budget permits then ..8800gt is the way to go

and if ur still going for 8600gt then galaxy 8600gt oc model is very good ..i had that ..came with cooler master cooler and overclocked very well and no heating. performance was good too.
