5 out of 5 stars Great One (works for Me)   August 18, 2008
Asif Mahmood (NJ)
I wanted this to watch movies on netflix and it worked for me. So I am happy.


2 out of 5 stars Not so good   April 20, 2008
JOSE CARRASCO MORENO
The hardware is like all the cheap products from China. The Vista performance test gave my PC an average rating of 3.0 and the lowest score was awarded to the Graphics sub system, so it's not very good.


5 out of 5 stars super suprised   April 8, 2008
T. Muse (NJ)
this cames with a 2 year warinty if you register it. I do a lot of graphics and when my graphics card went out I grabbed the first thing off of Amizon I could find. I was super surprised at the way this has preformed. so glad I did not spend mega bucks when this one really is all that I needed.


4 out of 5 stars Good enough to run Vista Aero, but fan a little noisy   March 28, 2008
Teeohem (San Diego, CA United States)
I specifically bought this card in order to run Vista on my machine. I have a nearly 3 yr old Dell Dimension 5100 and have upgraded the RAM to 2.5 GB and installed a new 250 GB SATA hard drive. The only upgrade needed from there was a video card. I needed a card that did not require that I upgrade my power supply (305 watt) as many of the PCIe cards do. I did not need anything to run high end games, only business apps and this was an inexpensive solution. The card runs Vista Aero very well. The only downfall is that the fan increased the noise level on my machine. It is easily the loudest component, but not overwhelming. I am happy with this choice of fan based on value and performance for my needs.


1 out of 5 stars LOUD Fan - horrible customer service   February 21, 2008
B. Walker
The fan on this card was exceptionally loud from the start and only got louder. When I called to have it replaced they would NOT replace the card without me paying a $30 processing fee. Bad card + bad service = don't by PNY.
