Reviewed By: Pr0tOCoL on 5/5/2009

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: cheap, DX10...

Cons: performs no better than the 8400GS since its a 64-bit card... i have owned the 128-bit 8500GT and u can really notice a difference in performance...

Other Thoughts: built a budget pc for my mom and slapped this card in to replace the onboard graphics without noticing it was 64-bit (bad planning on my part) she plays The Sims 2 almost non-stop and with a 128-bit 8500GT the game plays fine @ 1440x900 resolution and with this card it lags badly on 1280x800 resolution... 64-bit really hinders this card from performing the way it could and should...

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Good card, takes the load of my servers memory.

Cons: Bought this for my Gaming PC but forgot to look at how many bits it had. Oh well, I needed one for my server anyways.

Other Thoughts: This is a great card for stuff like video capturing but for high speed gaming go for the 128-bit and up.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: cheap

Cons: get what u pay for card was DOA but Newegg issued RMA immediately so satisfied with newegg disapointed in Biostar

Other Thoughts: realized card was probably under powered for what i wanted it for ( replacing a dieing 7900gt ) so ordered a 8800gt instead
