5 of 5 Nice card. Works well. Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Douglas from Boston, Ma.  

Sped up web browsing and downloading alot. Stable. Much better detail on screen. I use two large flat LCD monitors with dual core Intel CPU. No problems. Was also on sale at at Buy.com for a decent price and also the best price I could find. Otherwise somewhat expensive. Researched before purchase and found many positive reviews on internet. Not the most expensive card, but not junk either. More mid-level yet still a strong performer and a suitable alternative for most needs. Is also optimized for Vista. Easy to install.

5 of 5 A true workhorse Friday, August 15, 2008
PJ from Santa Cruz  
I had the same issue when I bought this card as the previous reviewer (BSOD) few times. I ran the system tests and realized that the motherboard memory was the issue not the card. That memory area was probably not used that heavenly before. Any way after putting in new memories there has not been any problems so far. It is working like a charm, its hooked to 42" LCD and I use it primarily to play Quake4, Crysis and other games.

1 of 5 Unstable, BSOD, no support from the company Thursday, August 07, 2008
A Customer from Sunnyvale CA  
I went through 7 reinstalls of windows XP for this card. Every time my computer was unstable after installing drivers for this card. Will not buy any more AMD/ATI products.

4 of 5 GOOD for HD TV, but a little loud Monday, April 07, 2008
A Customer from OREGON  
Works great for the price (65.xx). Except for the fan, its pretty loud compare to my PYN 8600GTS. I connected to my 37 LCD HD TV. Everything runs great and smooth.

5 of 5 Cheap 512MB card... Saturday, March 15, 2008
A Customer from Middleton, WI  
Upgraded from a 128MB ATI card to this. Had some issues with the driver installation. Make sure to uninstall ALL ATI software before installing this card. On initial bootup after installing the drivers, I had a blank screen but the computer successfully rebooted. I was able to initiate a reboot using keyboard combination and it came up fine since. The card is a bit loud with the fan, but nothing too bad. Performance is nothing great, but the 512MB is helping me with additional textures I was trying to load when running two copies of EverQuest on the same machine.
