easy install very good support [Posted on 2007-02-13] This works great in my Emachine PC. had a little trouble installing because drivers from ATI card I had before wouldn't uninstall. eVGA support was very helpful solving this.
Thank you [Posted on 2007-02-24] I have searched and searched and spent about 300 dollars searching for the right video card for me. Buying high end cards and none of them working the way they should, Online the other day looking for a great deal hoping for a good item. I have finally found the card for me I had my doubts because I am running Vista Home Premium, the card went in without any problems no software needed for the instal. I love it thank you Amazon!
Works great [Posted on 2007-03-23] Once we replaced this card in our hard drive, everything is working just fine.
Buy another one, this is not for gaming [Posted on 2007-03-30] I bought this card thinking I was going to have a better performence than shared video memory, but I think is almost the same, so buy another.
Best video card for the money [Posted on 2007-05-13] This card is great, especially if you want a second video output to a tv with S-video(the cord that has several pins coming out).
On a computer with a 2.6 GHz Celeron processor and 256 MB of RAM, the NVidia control panel took a long time to load, but once it loads, it's pretty useful. You won't have to run that control panel but maybe once anyway. The control panel I speak of is actually the downloaded program from their website, I didn't use the installer on the CD due to a crack in the disc(shipping's fault, I'm sure).
This card may not be the best for 3D gaming, but it's good for everything else. I even ran Google Sketchup through it(low-level 3D program). I haven't tried it with 3D games, but from the specs, I wouldn't expect it to play the latest games very smoothly. Check the game's system requirements.
One caveat, though: I'm sure this applies to all video cards, so I won't count this against it, but, if your computer uses integrated graphics(video output built in to the motherboard rather than a card), the card will deactivate that output. You may be able change the settings to reactivate the card through the BIOS, but that's only recommended for people comfortable with going into the computer's BIOS. Read the manual before going into the BIOS.
In spite of that caveat, you can still have dual monitor support by using the VGA output AND the S-video output on this card. The S-video output is lower resolution, though, because it's designed to go to a TV, which has lower quality than a computer monitor. You can activate the dual output through the NVidia control panel.
All-in-all, a great card.
