Breathe some life into your AGP system with this Radeon X1650PRO based card from HIS. The GPU clocks in at 600MHz for speedy game play. The memory clock on the 256MB of GDDR2 runs at 800MHz with a 128bit data path to reduce bottlenecks.

Radeon X1650 Pro 256MB Review

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very nice card. Is very quiet. Runs Oblivion, Call of Duty 2, and Company of Heroes at 1280X1024 very smoothly. Good card for the price if you are still running AGP. Great upgrade from my old Nvidia 5200 Ultra. Had no problems with install got the latest drivers from www.ati.com
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: It uses the floppy drive power connector, i dont use floppy anymore so no problem for me

Pros: The price/Performance is wonderful.
Bought this card to replace my wife's 6800 which was glitchy. Great card when she isn't overheating and locking up.
Cons: HEAT HEAT HEAT!

If you look the stock cooler on this card is a joke. After running Oblivion for about 3 hours it locks hard and you have to wait for it to cool off. Confirmed that it was a heat issue by removing all extra hard ware (Hard drives and Non essential fans) Power supply is 630 watts so I have the power to run it.
Other Thoughts: If you buy this card I strongly recommend a after market cooler for this thing. Newegg has a good selection of them. We have one on order currently. I'll update this if I find it didn't work.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: well ive upgraded from a bfg 5700 LE OC and there was some difference in some of my games but like the one guy said OpenGL games it cant handle, i play alot of CS condition zero and it can only handle about 50 fps which is garbage considering i was expecting it to handle the game in full, after all it is a fairly old game
Cons: the core clock isnt what the specs said they would be, over heating problems, low fps rates, your much better going for an Nvidia 7000 series or greater at least u will get your moneys worth
Other Thoughts: i wouldnt waste your money on this card, this was my first ATI and now ive learned to stick with nvidia only,,,

Pros: Not many. Runs fine for surfing the web
Cons: Noisy. Can't run games at all. Sims 2, Bloodrayne 2 will run for about 5 minutes and then freeze or go to a black screen.
Other Thoughts: I tried getting new drivers from both the ATI/AMD website and the HIS website and the newer drivers don't work (on XP or Vista.)

Pros: works great for surfin web
Cons: Under heavy stress and OpenGL games it stinks,something to do with the VIA chipset,I used variuos drivers and same thing lock-up or freeze
Other Thoughts: HIS,ATI,VIA,AMD need to fix this so it works together.That`s why my card is a doorstop. I went back to NVIDIA and no problems.
