I cant stress enough on how the quality of this card is so good. I honestly did not expect it to be as good as it has been. It works great on my intel dual core pc i have a 550w power supply with a 160gb hard drive in a gaming case that has 4 fans that keeps my pc running cool. |

This product is OK. Very thoughtfull of Sparkle to include a low-profile bracket. It performs well. My only problems have been with the fact that the S-Video out is 9-pin DIN which is VERY rare and does not readily interface with the most common 4-pin DIN on the TV I was trying to connect this to. And Sparkle tech support is aweful! I have not yet found a 4-pin DIN to 9-pin DIN adapter. |

I bought this to upgrade a new monitor for my Dell E310. Very easy to install. I do video editing on this machine and this card has great resolution for my needs. Very satisfied. The PCI interface was a plus for me with the Dell E310's limited card slots. |

Good 1st time driver install, easy update to latest driver. Used as part of a tripple monitor solution. Heat sink gets very hot. Be sure you case is cooled well and cabling is clear. |

I was looking for a PCI graphics card that I could run dual monitors with and this fit the bill. I have had in installed a couple of months and have had no problems. I mainly do CAD drafting and do not do any type of 3D modeling. |

I bought this to replace an aging FX 5200, and it performs perfectly. At first I had trouble installing, but only because of my own stupidity(If your replacing a VGA card, remove the VGA card, and drivers, first). It'll run Crysis rather well, most MMO's are fine at high settings, the Battlefield series also runs perfectly. Overall, if you have an old system with no PCI-Express slots, this is the card for you. (P.S.-Make sure you have a suitable Power Supply first, at least 300w in my opinion.) |

Works fine for Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 4, and Call of Duty 5. But, it came with the wrong installation disk and it took a while to figure it out as it did install.....after downloading the correct driver and then the updates all is well. |

Had to run 3 monitors on an HP with quad processor and built in graphic card. The machine runs pretty slow but I use the computer for stock investing and for that application is works okay. I had to have a PCI card as my computer will not run with the internal video and a PCI-e card. This one was a good choice. |

I bought this card to improve the performance of a Dell desktop (250GHz Celeron running NT), and it appears to be doing that. Nonetheless, the installation was a hassle due to problems with the installation CD. It would not launch to the installation wizard, but did load the main menu screen. When I selected an option to load the drivers, though, I got an SInstall error message: something to the effect of it being an unsupported operation. Disabling the on-board video driver did nothing to correct the problem. Finally, I found a NVidia driver download on the Sparkle web site that I loaded. It doesn't provide me all the utilities and options as the CD, but enough to use the Sparkle card. It's unfortunate I had to invest that much time getting this thing to work. |

I bought this card for a shuttle k45 running dual boot linux mint and Vista. In vista it worked fine, except that my Vista user experiance went from 3 down to 2. In Linux the NVIDIA Driver that it wanted to use (177) messed up xserver and I had to re install to corret. The proper driver is in the (218) driver package and even that didn't work right. In short if your shopping for a K45 and it's devices then look at the K48, It has built in DVI. If your looking at a add one for Vista Thsi will do. And Don't look at this for Linux, at least not Ubuntu 8.10, yet. Nvidia does all of there own drivers for the linux end, read up on there site about support for this product before buying. About the product physicly. It seems solid. Mine was fan-less. The heat sink was too tall to fit the case of the k45 (one slot, standard spacing to case). Nothing bending heat fins won't fix but Don't expect a ruturn after that. |
What can i say, its a good video card. Its a good quality car at a low price. My brother has this card on his pc and since im the one who uses it the most i can say its a great card. It is a litle expensive but i think its worth it. plus i dont think you can get a better card then this one at a lower price.
