Cons:
First card had issues, had to RMA
Pros: Inexpensive, fast card for the $$$ Comment:
I researched this card before buying it, and realized it is not the fastest card out there these days, but the price/performance ratio was about the best.The first card installed fine, and worked fine while not working it, but as soon as anything other than just Windows was running, there were artifacts and the system would freeze, or give errors regarding the video card.NCIX was great with the RMA process, and the second video card seems just fine.I almost purchased another one of these for a different system, and would have if I didn't have quality concerns.I could have received the one bad card out of hundreds of these, but am a bit gun shy.If the second card were my only experience, I would highly recommend it for the price. |

it doesn't feed the cat
Pros: Installed easily, runs the games my kids wanted it to Comment:
I just installed this card today but it seems to be fine. It runs the semi-recent games my kids wanted just fine. They think it looks cool, so I guess that's a bonus. Worth the purchase so far. |

Pros: quiet fanperformace/price Comment:
I bought this for my daughters upgrade, Its a hand me down effect around here and she gets her brothers gamer pc parts as he moves up. Shes moving from a amd939 system to amd am2 so gone is the agp 6800gt and this card is the replacement for the pciex 16 slot.This card is great for almost everygame, lots of power at this price and will overclock a little on memory and normal 4800series overclocks on gpu.but a stock speed its also fine for the mid level gamer .hdmi is nice reasonably quiet fan when on auto and not annoying on full.No xfire bridge connector so only 1 lane pciex16.If directx10 is enough for you then this card will not dissapoint, its too bad more 4800 series are still not avail as low cost alternatives. |
Not the best gpu out there, but certainly isnt the worst. Although this is an older diretx 10 gpu, it will run games smoothly at medium to highest settings. 64.99 is an excellent price for this card and has the best performance/price ratio.
