MSI N620GT-MD1GD3/LP GeForce GT 620 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card

Pros: Fit the low-profile Dell system just fine it was going in that needed dual screens. Well designed, quiet larger fan.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Not using this card for gaming, just office use and works like a charm!

Pros: Very cost effective card for upgrading those system that have only CPU-embedded graphics. I have systems with Intel HN2000, HD3000 and HD4000 graphics, but with Fedora Linux and VMware WS9, I wasn't able to get the graphics to provide 3D and Hardware Acceleration. With this card, almost pocket-change after rebate, the NVIDIA drivers resolved the issue. I had to remove the toy fan to clear the mini-case, but it seems very happy sitting next to the open cooling vent.

Cons: None for a bargain card.

Other Thoughts: It's not a high-end card, but you aren't risking much at the bargain rebate price. I'd order two the next time.

Pros: Cheap, quiet, small

Cons: FPS below 30 for streaming HD -- unwatchable for any online video above 800x600. This is what I got it for, so it's useless to me. Going back to a 4 yr old MSI N9600GT. Worth $15 for the test, but if I'd known, I wouldn't have bought it.

Other Thoughts: System I'm using it on: Asus P6T, i7 920 @2.67GHz, 18 GB RAM, win7 pro sp1, Samsung 840 Pro 256. Don't know how to measure fps for online video. Very jerky.

Pros: Very cheap with Mfr. rebate and promotional extra of HDMI cable. Can support our 27" WQHD monitor running at 2560 x 1440 resolution. A good value for my purposes as I am not a gamer and just wanted to offload the video processing from the integrated Intel 2500 graphics of my new i7-3770 build without having to upgrade my power supply.

Cons: Like the other user "Relap" I was pretty shocked to received an open box unit when nothing in the description indicated this would be anything but a new card. The one egg is for Newegg, not the card! I have never experienced this kind of deceptive practice from them before and am disappointed, but it is not worth the cost of shipping a return since I only paid $15 net for the card. Like Relap, I did not see any driver disc or user manual in the box until I lifted the egg-crate carton containing the video card and low-profile endplates out of the box and found them underneath it. That was a relief, at least, even though I knew I could download the drivers from the MSI site if necessary. I am still waiting on parts for the rest of the build and cannot comment on the card's performance yet. As long as it is not DOA I will be satisfied with my purchase but still a little leary of Newegg's practices now.

Other Thoughts: Will update review when it is installed.

Manufacturer Response:

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Received card today and couldn't install. upon closer inspection I can see where the manufacturer forgot to cut the slot on the PCI-e card connector.

Other Thoughts: Disappointing that I'm paying for shipping for a manufacturing defect.

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

We apologize for the issues that you are having with this product.
The blue protective cover for the PCIE connector needs to be removed first before you can install it into the system.

Pros: Works great

Cons: None

Pros: Very cheap card, 15 bucks after rebate.

Cons: Not good for gaming despite the 1 Gb of memory. Minecraft runs poorly and it is the most basic game( low pc requirements).

Other Thoughts: Not worth the cost of postage to return it. Maybe I'll use it in a media center PC, it does have an HDMI port.

Manufacturer Response:

This card should work with minecraft smoothly without any issues, please check driver and settings, but if problem persists then return to Newegg to get a replacement.

Pros: Dont know. Did not get anything but the card. Did not open or install it. To send back I have to pay shipping. Not right! Why should I pay for their mistake. Send e-mail have not gotten answer. Never had problem with New egg before. Sucks to be ignored!

Cons: Thought it was a good deal until I got t in the mail and found it to be someone elses hand me down. Was open , no software (drivers), no manual, nothing that should have been there, was there, except the card. Send e-mail, got no answer. To bad! thought NewEgg was better than that.

Other Thoughts: Be nice if someone took the time to recognize a low life customer. Sorry to bother you....

Pros: Used in a recent HTPC build to replace the onboard graphics on a Micro-ATX board. HDMI video and HD audio codec out are very nice looks and sounds good on my large LED LCD 1080p output. Low heat, low power consumption. Highly recommend. No problems with light gaming (however this is NOT a gaming card), works great with Win 7, Win 8 and Linux.

Cons: Card is a little wide 1½ slots maybe, heat sink and fan blocked the adjacent PCIe slot on my MSI motherboard, however, a PCIe riser cable allowed me to use that slot - HSF only blocks the back end of the card.
