After realizing that I could buy two 25.5 inch ASUS monitors for considerable less than the cost of my original 19 inch monitor, I wanted to get two. I use very large spreadsheet and with that old monitor I could have characters so small, I could hardly read them. from Amazon.com Pros: Inexpensive dual DVI with 1gb ram Cons: Only get a 4.2 rating on windows areo index under Win78800GTs is a lot faster Other Thoughts: Not bad for short money. from Newegg.com Pros: low price. good performance.easy to overclock and manage with supplied EVGA software.software includes in game display showing temp, fps, etc. also supports G15 keyboard display. from Newegg.com Pros: Runs some games great, COD4, MAX PAYNE, CS, WOW. Overall decent budget card for the entry level gamer, as long as you have a good CPU and good memory, this card is not much of a bottle neck. Cons: If you have Nforce onboard video, you might want to get rid of the drivers, sometimes the card's drivers and certain built in video mobos can cause stability problems and blue screens. from Newegg.com Other Thoughts: I guess I will try one more time and if it turns out to be 3 out of 4 bad then I will really get mad! Trying to set up an SLI on an ASUS A8N Manufacturer Response:Hello,Thank you for the review. I apologize about the issues you are having with your EVGA product. We stand behind our products and would like to assist you with troubleshooting and replacement of these products if necessary. from Newegg.com Pros: Nice card when it works. Cons: Bought three of these so far for a ASUS SLI setup! First one is still working,2nd one was DOA and the 3rd lasted 2 weeks.two bad and 1 good is not my idea of a good product. The last one had a ram failure after 2 weeks! from Newegg.com Put this in son's computer for online gaming and it made a big difference, didn't make it perfect, but enough. We went for the 9500 because it was about as big as I could go without straining the power supply (350W). from Amazon.com Pros: I just got this card in yesterday, so I cant say much about the durability, but this card was an excellent, low cost upgrade for my computer. I started WOW after installing the new video card; and without changing any of my graphics options my frame rate went from 30fps(old card) to 75-80fps- which, if you know, is faster than the human I can detect, so, I was very happy with that. from Newegg.com Pros: Solid card, especially considering the price. Ran WOW without issue. from Newegg.com Pros: Easy to install, plays sims 3 on high graphics flawlessly. Delivery was right on time. from Newegg.com
