Used in a Dell E310 with only PCI. A great improvment from the built in video on the MoBo. Using for photo editing, not gaming. It works.

I bought this card to replace my 6yr old card in my XP desktop that I've had for that long, but have been upgrading it along to keep it up to date. I've had it for over a month now and have had no problems whatsoever with it. Install was easy as well. I'm not a gamer, so this card works very well for me. The resolution is awesome on my 22" HD monitor.

Ive been using this card for an old Dell Dimension E310. 3g of processer, 2g of ram. It cant play streaming movies in fullscreen, it lags and eventually freezes until you minimize and bring back to full screen. Once back in fullscreen, it takes about 3 minutes to freeze again. DvD playback has me stumped as everytime i open any media application, it gives a driver crash (i have the most recent drivers to date) and goes immidately into a blue screen. Mpeg playback is about good as you can expect. Games such as Fallout 3 play like a champ and is pretty impressive. Games such as World of Warcraft is a waste of time, on the lowest settings across the board, i couldnt get more than 8fps no matter how you fiddled with Nvidias control panel (such as going to high performance, turning off all antialiasinig, etc etc) It seemed to have a hard time rendering content in WoW. to sum it up, you can spend better money on a different card.

This card works well on my old HP Pavilion desktop running Windows 7. I'm not into gaming so I can't comment on that, but works great for movies, with very good resolution. Good card if PCI is your only option.

The cd that came with the card was scratched and unreadable, so I had to locate the drivers myself. Let me tell you that this is no easy task. The drivers arent on the manufacture's site. I had to find them in some random forum somewhere. After the forementioned hassle, works great, games run smooth. Keep in mind though that PCI bus speeds do limit this card, but if you are playing medium high ranged games, it works great! Works great with fallout 3!

do NOT buy this POC. Dell PC w/ Vista would not recognize it and no matter how I loaded the drivers the card would not work! A huge waste of $

Go for a different brand card!! Shipped on time, but the card's heatsink was so darn big i had to saw off a piece of connector plastic on my pc's fan to let give it room. I also had to put it on the last slot b/c otherwise it covered the slot next to it. Then the CD gave me an error and shut off everytime i tried to install the drivers. I downloaded the drivers from Sparkle's website (surprised they have one) and from Nvidia's but to no avail. The installer told me it didn't recognize any hardware on my pc supported by the driver. I had to call up TigerD to get sparkle's number b/c all their website gives is a freaking fax # to Taiwan!!! Too late to call now, hopefully they'll help me tomorrow.

It works great so far. I bought this for an older computer I'm fixing up, and it took it. It will work until I get enough money saved up to build my dream pc.
