N/A 12/13/2012 5:12:13 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5pretty sweet Pros: pluged it in and worked without even iinstalling the drivers...quiet... and i love the hdmi option...this card is pretty sweet and for the price you really cant beat it!! Cons: the only thing i have bad to say about this card is that the heat sink is huge and if you have a small case it may be difficult to fit inside.. or if you have 4 HDD like me wires and such could get in the way making installation a lil bit of a headache...but once you get it in its GREAT!! Other Thoughts: big heatsink is the price you pay for no noise its still a great card for under 50 bucks Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Retired Montana Guy 12/12/2012 2:24:45 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Fully satisfied. Pros: I bought an HP P7-1227C computer and wiped out Windows and installed Linux Ubuntu. My desktop worked fine in two dimensions, but I could not get a working 3-D desktop. It required proprietary AMD video drivers that, when I installed them, did not work well. Also the video out was DVI and I wanted HDMI. I bought and installed this card and it worked right out of the box. No proprietary drivers were needed and my Ubuntu 3-D desktop works perfectly. I couldn't be happier with this card. Cons: None. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
NewEggFan 11/22/2012 3:28:47 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Works In The HP 5750 Pros: Smooths out videos, graphics are great. Haven't tried the HDMI but the vga/dvi makes a good dual screen card. Drivers installed like a champ in Windows 7. Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: I had to bend the last cooling fin back flat to clear a CPU post. Fit fine then. The min requirements were a 300watt PS and the HP 5750 only has a 240 I think. I haven't had any blips so far. Nice card for the money, never gets hot. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
