MSI N630GT-MD4GD3 GeForce GT 630 4GB 128-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card

Pros: Quick and easy to install. Drivers installed without any issue. I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to computer hardware. However, I can tell you there's a huge difference in how my computer runs after installing this video card. Games are crisper and clearer, the frame rate on (WoW) tripled. I'm thrilled with it! :)

Cons: Haven't found any cons so far.

Pros: It didn't kill my dog.

Cons: doesn't work.
No choice on giving ZERO eggs for a review

Other Thoughts: Installed the card and the drivers.
Worked for about 5 mins.
Computer shut down for no reason.
After a restart the computer did not recognize the card.
Went to the Nvidia website and used their software to re-install the drivers.
Restarted the computer.
Worked fine.
Five mins later computer shut down again and forgot the card.
Removed card re-installed old card. Problem gone.
Will RMA this card and report back on how that went.

Pros: Great quality for Crysis 3 and SWTOR on high settings. Install was easy and I was very surprised this card has no external power source requirements.

Cons: On boot the video is displayed in what I can only describe as tears or sheared like a bad cable tv reception pixelation. Let the card warm up and reboot about twice and seems to work great.

Other Thoughts: Runs all my games on high resolution settings without much issue. Older quad-core AMD system with brand new (at the time it was built) parts, this card has extended the life of my system for at least 2 more years. Now if I could only fix this boot issue.

Pros: Good basic card for a very small investment.
Can handle games like Diablo III on med to high settings.
No need for expensive psu since this card does not have a pci-e plug in.

Cons: the 4gb ddr3 I don't think is enough on this card. Outdated before it was produced. Spend the extra money and get a better card if you plan to game.

Other Thoughts: Was upgrading from a asus 4970 dk/top with 512mb ddr5 graphics card. The asus card can handle 2 Diablo 3 windows while the gt630 can only handle 1 window. I do notice with the one window open the I can bump the settings up higher but does get a little choppy. Not the best cpu but main system parts are as follows.
Asus Maximus Formula(ROG), Intel Q6600 2.4ghz overclocked to 3.0ghz, 4gb ddr2, toughpower 700w psu, XP 32bit,

Pros: Works well with everything I have thrown at it. Works great with high end games....Works well with all video content. My grandson has not complained at all. Works as well if not better than XBox 360 games. For the price, I think we got a pretty good deal. Great buy.

Cons: Non so far.

Other Thoughts: N/A

Pros: For only an 80$ price tag, you are getting an excellent bundle of performance. As long as you don't expect it to perform like a GTX series card for 80 bucks, you're good to go. If you're trying to build a great gaming PC or video/image editing PC for a lower cost, this is your card.

And with only an 80$ investment, upgrading in the future isn't a huge issue.

I play Planetside 2 on low settings with max FPS at all times even in extreme combat. Other games like Minecraft and Diablo 3 are on max and run smooth like butter.

Cons: Obviously not as good as a 300$ card. But for less than 1/3rd the cost, you're getting more than what you're paying for.

Other Thoughts: I would recommend this card to anyone trying to build a gaming PC on a budget.

Pros: Great Graphics. Easy install. Vivid Colors. Makes games easier to play due to better detail. Added bonus of 3D capatibility just need glasses to make it work.

Cons: None as of yet.

Pros: So far so good. Put it in a WIN 8 PC and hooked up to my enter entertainment center via HDMI - Onkyo receiver & 50" Samsung plasma TV and picture quality on internet TV is impressive.

Cons: None so far...

Pros: Works

Cons: Worse score and performance than a gt240

Other Thoughts: Works great for my daughter to play free realms other than that i would save money and get a better card if at all possible

This card should outperform GT240 by a big margin but should not be underperformed.

Pros: Runs youtube videos very well, and even though my network connection is dismal compared to standard, I can watch most videos in 720p. Most video games have no problem with the fact that it ISN'T a GTX(higher quality gaming card, quite a bit more expensive) and I can run 30FPS on high quality, most games like Skyrim and Assassin's Creed.

Cons: I think this is a bad move on Sony's part, but this specific card isn't supported by Planetside 2, on account of the lower CUDA cores. As far as nVidia cards go, if you want to run PS2 you'll need a GTX 500 or higher.
