EVGA GeForce 9500 GT 01G-P3-N959-TR Video Card

Comment:
Installed easily on a system running Windows 7 RC with a quad core intel processor. Windows 7 installed all necessary drivers and the card has a beautiful display hooked up to a monitor via the digital connection. Windows 7 rates the card performance at 4.9 out of a perfect score of 7.0.

The Best video card you can get for the money. Period.

Installed on my Intel Core2Duo Gaming/Entertainment Center without any glitches save for a little feedback through HDMI audio channels which worked out after fine tuning to accomodate with new BluRay Drive. Video was a definite improvement with the upgrade from the 7300 GT - NO LAG time with Call of duty World at War - Recommend downloading updated drivers from Nvidia before install. will reccomend to other gamers/Media Center Enthusiasts

I build business machines primarily using Supermicro boards and when the customer asks for media capability I must have the parts. On Board Graphics or PCI, AGP and the PCIe cards have differing level of capabilities depending upon their usage. My 2009 tests for PCIe cards from the 8000 (X700 also) through the 260 (4870 also) showed this card has the best mid-range performance per dollar for the applications that I install. It doesn't even need a high power supply! EVGA cards over the years have lasted the longest.

i play a few games on my desktop and they are running so smoothly and beautifully since i installed this card. i would recommend it to any one.

Comment:
Better than the onboard card. Works great for a good price.

Comment:
great for XP, not so for Vista. great for video not recomended for gaming.

I am no gamer, but business applications and HD video fan. So I upgraded to the highest GeForce the Dell recommendation for my laptop was. If only everything in life were so smooth: early delivery, easy install and works great. So great that I am writing my first review. Great job EVGA and TigerDirect. I really love the dual monitor functionality an enjoy the resolution on my full HD Samsung P2370HD monitor. No regrets.

Useful for getting all the new features in Photoshop CS4 and After Effects runs much better. Best Deal for the price!

After having an integrated GPU for a long time, it feels great that I can at least get a mainstream, cheap graphics card for gamming. BF2 (I know it's an old game) runs great on maxed everything. The EVGA Precision tool that you can download is a pretty nifty overclock tool.

I installed the card and it worked fantastic for a while. The price and performance were wonderful. However, a few weeks later I got an error message when loading the Crysis game (I'd played quite a bit previously) that one of the drivers failed or wasn't working. I'm still working with Nvidia to figure out what's going on.

This card is the best card that you will find for so cheap. This video card plays games really clear and now I watch more movies on my computer than on my tv. GREAT CARD.

Purchased this for my desktop after the stock card started glitching. Installed a new PSU as well and couldn't be happier. This was mostly for home office use with dual DVI screens and some rather light gaming. Could see a noticible improvement in the games at highest settings and have no more problems with glitches.

Comment:
Great video card and pretty cheap. If you're not a heavy gamer, I recommend this vid card. It can play Crysis, C&C red alert 3, and street fighter VI perfectly.

Comment:
the only prob was truing to find the 3 layers buried option to set it for a 22'' wide screen monitor

Comment:
Not a heavy gamer as of late, but seems to have sped up response time for me - no complaints.

I have been buying parts and systems for more than 10 years from this retailer. I've never had any problems with the performance or quality of anything i've bought. They're always a phone call away if I have any tech questions of any kind. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Just Installed The Card Today And It's Just What I Needed. At A Great Price To Go Along With It. Played Prototype, Spore, And Team Fortress 2 All At Max Settings And Had No Lagggg!! It's Must Buy!!

Comment:
can't complain about it

Comment:
I bought the card with 1GB DDR2 and use it in my multi-media machine to feed my HDTV set. I had no problem converting the DVI to HDMI with the correct cable, but discovered that the router in my TV switched to S/PBDIF aduio when the driver for the video card was loaded. I had run a jumper wire from the S/PDIF pin on the mother board to the digital audio pass through pin at the top of the video card. The audio then routed through the DVI port. I found it odd that this card came with all sorts of cables I don't need but not with the digital audio pass through cable that I did need.

Comment:
Purchased 2 of these. One for a dual monitor system, the other for a spare. One of the cards only half worked. Ya pays your money ya takes your chances!!!

Comment:
for the price this is one of the best graphic cards you could find..runs very smooth and havent had any problems for the past few weeks that i've had it

Comment:
This is a pretty good card for the price, make sure your psu is up and ready for the job, and also if you are so inclined you may want to step up to a card that performs a little better. Overall I am more than happy with this purchase, system performance has been increased and I am able to run everything from Valve's "Orange Box" at full specs.

As a online gamer i was looking for a good card for my Dell xps gen 5. This card works great zoneing in EQ2 is faster than ever and no more lockups in large mobs. I you are a hardcore gamer this is not your card but if you want a great card for the money this is it.
