Pros: NONE

Cons: This product stopped working in 32 days. Since I did not keep the packaging Newegg will not replace the item. I am very dissatisfied. When I go to the manufacturing website I am unable to contact anyone and the phone number given is an answering machine.

Pros: Two video outputs.

Cons: Not compatible with all monitors.

This is a confirmed issue with some ATI cards and monitors, mine is a brand new westinghouse 22" LCD.

Other Thoughts: The NVidia driver doesn't let the user forcefully set (correct) output resolutions. Look up on the forms and this is a common complaint for some people who, after upgrading to certain models of NVidia cards including this one, find their monitors not working at proper resolutions. This is crucial to have a nice LCD picture. In my case I was able to plug in an extra monitor, have the card autodetect it's modes, then reconnect the actual monitor I wanted to use while running. This proved to me that the official driver was faulty and not the hardware. It took me hours to diagnose and find a patch that worked. According to the forums it's been years that this issue was known and still no fix from NVidia. They blame the monitor manufactures for the incompatibility but the fact remains that NVideo cards shouldn't require 3rd party patches to set the resolutions. At the very least they should provide a list of monitors which they do not support.

1 out of 5 eggsDont Get this

Pros: This card needs a fan, I had it running in a smaller case and it literally went out within 2 months of having it. Ive never had a video card ever do that

Cons: You can get a much better card for 20 dollars cheaper than this in the X700 by ATI which is 128 bit.

Other Thoughts: Nvidia put this card on the market tricking people calling it the 8400GS when a 6600GT blows this card out of the water by alot. The card being 64 bit's really is what hurts it the most.
Their are better options out there, just skip this one if your a gamer on a budget.

5 out of 5 eggsNot bad!

Pros: Easy to install, great upgrade for older motherboards (2.4ghz Celeron/1gb RAM/this graphics card can run Sims 2 on full with no lag!), and instructions are short but sweet and helpful.

Cons: No fan? I'm not sure exactly how hot it might get, but so far no problems. None other I can really think of.

Other Thoughts: Be sure to set the BIOS to PCI mode! I also had to disable the integrated graphics (in safe mode) after installing the drivers, otherwise all I saw was a blank screen. There is a minor driver update online (I use DriverMax) but so far, great card! A+!

5 out of 5 eggsnice

Pros: no fan to fail, decent for upgrade from mobo video....will add a couple years to my old gateway...good instructions for newby

Cons: none so far

Other Thoughts: install drivers from website...upgrading from onboard video you must disable mobo display and go into the bios and select pci config....
