Best Value There IS!
- Pros: Works well in Vista (Sp2 RTM) and XP. I can tell that it has quite an edge over my old 3650, it's specs are roughly double in some areas. At current pricing it is unbeatable.
For gaming it is a great card. It's computational power isn't great, though with FSAA abd such turned down or off the card will run anything at an excellent framerate.
This is the card you want if you are on a tight budget but want to be able to play games. Being DX 10.1 compliant it should run anything so long as settings are turned down. As I said it just doesn't have a huge amount of processing power. It is like having half of a 4830. At the pricing it would be pointless to try to run these in crossfire when two of these are the price of one 4830.
- Cons: Well, if you like fancy visual effects, you won't like this card. In newer games you will need to lower the effects and detail levels otherwise the card will run slow trying to do all of that wonderful math.
Though I do recall that back in my day when a Voodoo1 was hot, the REAL gamers turned down all their settings for max frame rates. lol, so perhaps this IS the card for hardcore gamers??? ;)
- Other Thoughts: If you're looking at it, just buy it. It's going to be worth it unless you really need something better. like was mentioned previously, the card has VGA out and DVI out, NO ADAPTERS or anything will come in the box. That's life, and that's why it's cheap!
CCC sets the overclock to 700/540 for me and my fan is congested by a PCI card right below it. My case also has mediocre air flow. At 700 it's like 7% behind a 4670 in speed or around there. (4670 is 750MHz)
Good card, odd fan control
- Pros: Good GPU for dirt cheap, doesn't require separate power cable, runs cool.
- Cons: I don't know if mine is defective, but when sitting idle at the desktop the fan keeps repeatedly speeding up and slowing down, over and over. ATI Catalyst 9.1 shows temps between 31 and 32 with the fan bouncing between 0% and 100%. In other words, it's really annoying because of course you hear the fan cycling on and off every 5-10 seconds. Was able to work around this by setting manual fan control, but I don't like that solution. Like I said, I don't know if they all do this or just mine.
- Other Thoughts: Other than the weird fan control, the card does a good job for a budget system with light-medium gaming.
3dmark06=5466/3dmark03=17652
- Pros: overclocked card to 700/540(1080 ddr2) card still running cool max 60c after 2 hours of crysis 1024x768 med settings card is very quite even when gaming- msi did a great job with fan and heatsink on this one crysis benchmark at above settings min=32 max=68 avg=53 great for a 17 inch or 19 inch lcd plays all other games at 1280x768 50+ frames cod4,bf2,wow,farcry,spellforce2,king kong,rainbow6,bro. in arms,nfs hot pursuit,prince of persia this card is stunning in crysis on med would have gave card 5 stars but see the con this is an awsome card low heat,quite,no aux.power needed + and overclocks well
- Cons: cd/software from msi would not work with xp/sp3 even with xphotfix from amd tried 3 times to reinstall with msi software gave up twice from cd once from their website downloaded hisxxx software and amd hotfix for xp to get card working
- Other Thoughts: come on ati you have been making video cards for years, xp has been around for 7 years -sp3 pre feb.-08 and released april-08 and these cards just came out around sept.-08 come on xp hotfix/sp3 should be written in the software bundle get some QA and make sure this stuff works and is user friendly great product visually better than the other guy when it works
