Only for REALLY budget rigs
Pros: -Cheap -Can still handle most games, as long as the rest of your system compensates.
Cons: -Not DX10 compatible -Noticably slow on many games, this will be quite a bottleneck for anything other than light or office use.
Other Thoughts: Let me put this bluntly - This is not a very good card.
Yeah, it'll last forever, but you're not going to want it to.
Even if you're building a low end system, you can get something better than this for less. Try the low end 8 or 9 series, you can catch them on sale for about $30, and it'll perform better.

Great for low profile gaming
Pros: Did exactly what i wanted it to do. It enable my HP compaq work desktop (that i got for free) to play all the games i really like. Its a great card for mild gaming. It runs tf2-medium l4d-medium css-high obilvion-high, and about every other new game on low.
Cons: The fan is small so it gets hot when running big games. Not hot enough to overheat, but it will defiantly warm up your case and other hardware, so make sure your other fans are running on a good level.
Other Thoughts: This is a good card for the price, and is really good if you have a bad computer that you want to play semi-modern games on and not wast a lot of money. For the games i run its just fine.
BE WARNED, if your planning on getting this card to play all the new big games you might want to look else wear. The games i play don't require lots of graphics for good game play. I tried running Batman Arkham Asylum, yes it could run it, but on the lowest of everything, and it didn't even run smooth, rather slow (also because of my lack of ram) and games like that are all visual so it was kind of a bummer when i couldn't even see a batarang flying in the air, or when people where completely blurry from 20 ft away. If you have a low profile system and you want a card that will play all the new games look for a card that has 512mb instead for 256mb, a good 512 will be able to handle about anything perfectly if you have enough ram and hd space.

Decent video card at a good price
Pros: Dropped right in to a customer's Dell, replacing their original Dell card (same video chipset)
Cons: Some of the customer's games had to be re-installed, despite the fact that the chipset was same as the old card.
Other Thoughts: Need to re-install the games MIGHT have been the fault of the fact that the original Dell had their custom firmware, or the fact that this card has twice the video memory. In any event, it was very minor to do so.

GREAT!!!!!....for the price
Pros: I have used this card for almost 2 yrs now and, despite that there are better cards out there, the 7300 has atleast met the minimum requirement for every game that i have seen so far. For the price, you cant get a better deal
Cons: The only cons is that it is a lower end video card, but for the price, its a great deal

Budget Card
Pros: Cheap. Dual Monitor Support. Easy install.
Cons: Fans are ultra cheap and fail. Removing heatsink it is easy to damage the GPU.
Other Thoughts: I purchased a half dozen of these and run them in WinXP. They are about 6 months old and the fans are all failing one by one. U-Lucky Fan = junk. With a name like U-Lucky how can it be good?

JATON Video-PX7300LE-256 GeForce 7300LE PCI Express Low Profile Video Card
Pros: Card installs easily and is a great choice for DDR2 systems. Comes with appropriate brackets and is SO simple to assemble for low-profile computers.
Cons: A quiet system will become noticeably less quiet when this card is installed - the fan is pretty noisy.
