j'ai achete cette carte pour me permettre d'utiliser un ordi de quelques annees, Le format pci etait parfait. Je voulais utiliser deux ecrans a la fois avec une resolution elevee, je suis tres satisfais. Je suis juste surpris de ne pouvoir utiliser des accents dans mes commentaires. TG pense que seul l'anglais peu servir |

REceived in perfect timing. Installed in a Dimension 2400 as well. Install procedure was not perfect but with help from the manufacturer, got it running within minutes for dual monitor mode. Works flawlessly at the office. (To install, in the device manager of Control Panel - System, must disable onboard video) |

For me this card is just OK. I was not able to hang 2 monitors off the card, which is what I wanted to do, to make sure both monitors looked the same. Had to settle for 1 off the card and 1 of the video on the mobo. |

I needed to add a second VGA monitor to an old Dell Dimension running XP Pro. The card went in with no problem and the software provided worked fine. It was a good inexpensive solution to my need. |

I purchased to be able to run a projector from a desktop. This product is definitely a good choice for someone who needs a dual vga (without converting dvi to vga). This was a very hard product to find, but was worth the searching. |

I did not buy this card for gaming or high end graphics, I just wanted to drive a monitors and a projector in a training facilitiy. IT WORKS GREAT with ALL three Windows Operating Systems(XP, Vista,7). Great value and quality from Nvidia. |

This card works and is extremely easy to install. Most games require more then this, but I installed it into my nephew's computer which is a P4 with 512 ram and the computer will now run on line FPS games, such as Combat Arms with no problems. |

Installed in a Dell Dimension 2400, which utilized shared video from the motherboard RAM. Experience hesitations with Power Point, but performance improved dramatically, with the new card. Great addition to this machine. |

This is a good video card for the money. I am using it to upgrade from XP to Vista. The Vista graphics all work now! I did however have a glitch with the Vista 3D screen saver, as it hung a few times. It seems there are no up to date drivers available for this card which would solve the problem. Other than that, I'm totally satisfied. |

Cons: Still not good for anything other than several year old games. Most game requiring Direct X 9 wouldn't run well on this card. Heatsink very warm.
Pros: Much better than onboard on an old Socket A system. 128-bit memory interface. Direct X 9 support. Fanless = no noise Comment:
I purchased this to install in my brothers' computer that had an onboard SIS Xabre 200 video card. I remember purchasing that motherboard "back in the day", and boy was it great for that time. Not shared video, but actual on board video with its own built in RAM. Anyways. He purchased a couple bargain bin hunting/fishing games that ran, but barely on his system. Now they seem to run fine. This would probably be good enough for games that are a few years old, but won't run anything considered new at all. For comparison, the Xabre 200 got 3249 3dmark 2001, and this got 5109. I seem to recall one of my old systems with a similar CPU (Athlon XP 2000+) and a Radeon 9600 XT getting around 8000.I have to say that this is probably the fastest PCI video card I have ever personally seen, but it is still a PCI card (not PCI-E), and if anybody thinks they are going to purchase this card and magically have a good gaming computer, think again. This card worked out perfect for my use, and if you have a few games that could use a bit of help, and are stuck with PCI, this may be good for you too.4 star rating is based on card meeting my expectations as well as price. |

This card is great for the price. Installation was simple. All software on the computer works better and faster. The overall performance is much better. If you want a better graphics card you'll just have to pay more, but for the money this card is great for general computing and gaming. |

This graphics card was a great deal in order to run an inexpensive dual monitor setup on my IBM Thinkcentre M52. I only had a PCI slot, and my graphics were noticeably better right away than with the on-board Intel chipset. Tiger even price-matched Best Buy, who had free shipping and $10 cheaper price, after the fact. Tiger also has blazing fast shipping.. Had it in 2 days. Thanks Tiger! |

I tried two monitors on my desk first, found that by having two work spaces, I was able to get more things done with greater ease. So ordered three more duel monitor cards for our existing XP units. Employee's are happy, I am happy they get more work done on one monitor and they have one for face book. Come on we all know this is what happens, but still, they have improved our work flow. Yep, go ahead, they worked for us. |

This is a great video card for the money. Install the card, install the driver, disable on board video if you have it and go. Very fast and great graphics. No complaints or problems. Great 3D and shadowing. You won't be dissapointed if you get this one. |

This card works great! I use it at church to run a projector and monitor. It runs smoothly and has several settings to get everything just right. I thought I would push the limits so I used used it in conjuction with the exsiting AGP card it can run 3 monitors, projectors, or whatever independantly! |

Card Installation was simple, but performance slow and of poor quality. Perhaps there was a defect in the card. Have lost confidence in this product will try card different make and components. |

Do not purchase this monitor if you want to use it for Win 7. The BSOD's started immediately and I spent hours and hours finding the problem. Replaced it with EVGA Geforce 9500 for only about $20 more. Downloaded the latest driver from EVGA site and the problems were all gone. The EVGA card also supports dual monitors very nicely, my bad. |

This Vid card is a nice upgrade at an unbeatable value for your older or aging computer that has a PCI only slot. |

The card worked flawlessly since I installed it. The correct drivers loaded immediately, and automatically changed the bios on my computer from on board to pci card. This is an older computer, but I can play Fancast TV and HULU with no problem. The monitors I'm using will not let me take full advantage of the cards resolution. |
I bought this same graphics board about 2 years ago. It worked great until last week when it crashed. I bought a new one and it works perfect. The first board was next to another graphics board in my PC which added to the heat which I believe caused the failure. Keep it cool baby...
