Joe 5/17/2013 9:32:08 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5work as expected in hackintosh, dual monitor support, but noisy Pros: - Work as expected - Hackintosh Mountain Lion - Dual monitor support - inexpensive Cons: - fan is noisy Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 5/6/2013 1:32:33 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Works for me ... times five Pros: cheap PCI-e card for running dual monitors ... I've had no problem what so ever in the five units I installed these. Pick up a used Dell 760 off the auction website that shall remain nameless and toss one of these in and you have a nice simple business workstation. Cons: none yet Did you find this review helpful?

JetSpeed 5/2/2013 4:10:44 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Can't beat it for the price Pros: Installed this card in a Dell XPS 420 with no issues at all, fired it up in Windows 7 64bit and all was well, updated the driver in NVIDIA's site. Windows Experience Index score of 3.4 and 5.0 which is plenty for a decent workstation. Cons: No Cons to speak of with this card, obviously a graphics card in this price range is going to have marginal performance. Other Thoughts: Don't mess around with the included drivers on the CD, download the latest Geforce driver from Nvidia's site. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
ISH 5/1/2013 11:55:00 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 1/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5It works Pros: Cheap and it works. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: I was reluctant to purchase this video card with all the DOA reviews, but I needed an inexpensive video card for a server build. This fit the bill perfectly. It was on special for only $10 after rebate. Video card works fine, I am not concerned about performance other than it just working. Did you find this review helpful?

zeusenergy 4/4/2013 6:56:28 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5 Pros: The first one worked great. Cons: The second one did not work so well. Installing it into my hackintosh or any other machine prevents the computer from booting at all. Other Thoughts: Buyer beware. I paid for two of these and only one works. Sending it back for RMA is pointless at this low price, I'll keep the fan off the second card as a spare for the first- and make a better decision on what to buy next time!

zeusenergy 2/22/2013 5:25:54 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Works awesome Pros: Works in OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, like someone else was saying. Two DVI ports. Small size overall. Low power consumption. Single slot. Its black, except the bracket, but that can be painted.... Cons: If only it cost less..... :-) Other Thoughts: Great value buy it now. Seriously. It's a powerful GPU, don't let the specs and price fool you. These entry-level chipsets provide PLENTY of power for everything except Hard Core, high-end gaming. 1 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you?
