Galaxy 52GGS4HX2HXZ GeForce GT 520 (Fermi) 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card

Pros: It was good for the first few months.

Cons: It's fan is now locked up due to dust, now I am without a GPU, good job galaxy, never buying from you EVER again.

Other Thoughts: It was an amazing little GPU for the first few months, then started overheating. BEST. EVER. Sarcasm ^^

Pros: Minecraft: 100+ FPS Normal render distance.
This card is pretty epic for the price. I'd get it if I were you.
TF2: 80 FPS Medium - High Settings
GMOD: 70 FPS Max Settings
Terraria: 60 FPS Max (Locked at 60)
Saints Row The Third 50 - 30 Fps

Cons: None, it's a pretty good card.

Other Thoughts: It's light. Plays games good. Gonna get a actual gaming card / PC Christmas though.

Pros: The card was very easy so install i downloaded the newest Nvida drivers instalation went smooth
the price with rebate was only $27 something with the 20 mail in rebate i opted for the expedited rebate offer so it will end up being 18 something but the differance between 6 to 8 weeks or whatever to 6 to 8 days it is worth it to me

as allways

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: newegg shipping is great have never had any trouble with that or any parts i have orderd but i do know it can happen but i am very satisfied with the dedication to the customer

Pros: Powerful for the price, plays all the games that I wanted to play on medium/high settings. Oblivion, StarCraft II, Splinter Cell Convictions, Resident Evil 5, and Call of Duty are all running on at LEAST meduim settings at playable FPS.

Cons: The fan is loud. My system went from barely audible to noticable after the installation of this card. It's not a deal-breaker, and it's not THAT loud, but you will hear this card.

Other Thoughts: My system is not the most powerful in the world, which is why I was supprised that all of the aboved mentioned games were running so smoothly.

Specs:
2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo E4400
2GB DDR2 memory
GeForce GT 520 1GB (running on a 16x slot, not 2.0)

Pros: cheap

Cons: Ive had his card for a little over a month and randomly the fan started to fail. I bought it as a temp card until i can get a higher end one, but its not even holding up that long

Other Thoughts: Another thing is trying to get ahold of Galaxy to discuss the warranty is useless. I spent 3 hours on hold before the auto disconnect and im still waiting on a reply email

Pros: inexpensive, 1g, rebate

Cons: 64bit

Other Thoughts: I actually own the galaxy gt430 which has given me great performance with my video editing and HD playback.
But the thing I wanted to mention is that I received my $18 rebate today.
I paid the $2 for 'express' processing and it took just under 4 weeks to receive my rebate. Basically I paid $33 for my video card. Awesome deal!

Pros: Good chipset.

Cons: BEWARE! No low profile bracket included. If you intend to use this video card in a low profile computer you'd better already have a bracket that can accomodate the card. I was able to find one online that looks like it will fit, and EVGA # 843368006365 and ordered it. But nothing from Galaxy.

Other Thoughts: Lesson learned to look closer at the pictures and not just the item description. After call Galaxy support, the tech even acknowledged that the description is a bit deceptive.

Pros: 1. i have had this card for 6 months, runs most o my games at low or medium with no to 2x AA.

2. has Cuda, DX11.

3. very small card, about the length of the pci express interface.

4.very low TDP. runs with my no-name 350W psu even though my processor takes about 120W.

Cons: 1. preforms on par and about the same as my old 9500GT.
2. can get pretty hot on max load.

3. was 80 bucks when i got it....

Other Thoughts: dece3nt for the money NOW...

80 bucks when i got it.
i need a whole computer upgrade.

Pros: Direct X11 compatible, good for HTPC or business/non-gamer PC, small and low power, quiet. May be able to play some games if the game is on low settings or is older. One Gig of video ram (although DDR3).

Cons: At regular price it is overpriced, although it does beat an 8400GS (or the like) for an HTPC, etc.

Other Thoughts: At about 35ish it's a decent card for what it's designed for. At 55, there are better options, even if you have to spend a few more bucks. Benchmarks about like a 7900gs.

Pros: low power consumption/heat, accelerates applications and windows
satisfied, the fan on max isn't that loud

Cons: none, its a little weak but its strong for the price
you get what you pay for

Other Thoughts: got it to 1000 core, 2000 shader and 2040 (as far as the slider would go in afterburner) and stressed test successfully in furmark and FFXIV benchmarks
score in FFXIV 1540 OCed
phenom II 720BE @3.5GHz
4GB of 1600 ram
