Neat little card

white Reviewed By: Audune on 5/27/2008
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Cheaply priced, came with 512Megs of Ram, Bought as upgrade for when my 7300GT OC blew some capacitors and I was on a strict budget. Been playing games like Doom3, SWG, and EQ2 maxing it out as far as I could, and it performed beautifully.

I've been an Nvidia fan for years, I needed a cheap card that would do great things, and their 8400 was just what I needed.
Cons: Cant say there are any cons.
Other Thoughts: I'm keeping with Nvidia. Nothing else comes close.

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: dirt cheap for this type of card
Cons: complete and total failure, had to jiggle the monitor wire to get it to make a connection and the s-video port refused to work at all. Obviously the card was defective but if it passes ECS QA in this condition I can only assume others have as well
Other Thoughts: as stated above card seemed to be built poorly and not inspected.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Fast, cheap, powerful, and mine came with 512mb (gotta love when companies make mistakes and give you better stuff), kept me playing games even after my computer with an 8800 went down.
Cons: Small fan on the heatsink really doesn't help out too much.
Other Thoughts: Used in a computer that i really only use to surf the Internet and some light gaming, came in handy when my good computer fell apart on me.
