Customer Reviews

Very good cheap card
I got this card in April 08 and thus far it's fantastic. For the price it's excellent. I've recently got Spore and it runs it perfectly. Great card for the money, and a good all rounder.

Excellent product.

Great value
I've had experience with two of these - one was mine, another was a friend's.

Be warned that this isn't a card for high resolution, high eye candy gaming. However, it's the perfect solution for a PC that is only occasionally used for gaming, or for a media centre.

I was able to run mine at a 200mhz overclock for 9 months without isues, despite the diminutive cooler, and using a 300W unbranded power supply. I used it mainly for gaming on a small CRT monitor.

I've sinced upgraded my PC and monitor, and this card now resides happily in the family's office PC. It works a treat for DVD playback, and it's folding rate of 640ppd is modest, but impresive if you compare it to a similarly priced CPU.

GOOD
hi, brought this from local small PC specialist
£49.

putting it in was easy, only takes one expansion slot.
has its own fan, however i dont hear it.

it it brilliant, can now run games like BF2142 on High, Call of Duty 4 on medium and even Crysis on low-medium.

however the rest of my computer isnt the equivalent
1.8ghx dual core
1gb ram
305 watt PSU
so if your wondering why its struggling its cos of my processor and ram.

anyway, it plays games well, especially on my 22" monitor. images are crisp with dvd and video. and even the desktop just looks generally better.

buy it, its amazing
