larrie Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/5/2010 9:13:27 AM Good Option for Continued M90 Use Pros: Small, low power need, great video response, dual monitor. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Purchased this to try an wrest more usable life from a Dell M90 out of warranty and with the familiar Nvidea FXnnnnM problem (would've been the 3rd video card in 3 years). Didn't want to spend more wasted money on another nvidea internal FXnnnnM video card. Decided to instead use the notebook as an alternative desktop with the dell dock that allows one PCI expansion card. WORKS GREAT and this is one of the FEW cards that will FIT in the dock's expansion port, AND one of the few cards that the dock's power supply will handle. I did have to mod the VGA connector a little in order to fit the card into the dock, as I wanted to run dual monitors, so I need both DVI and VGA out. Had to cut off the top of the black connector (where it attaches to the card, in order to gain clearance - didn't really hurt the connector). I am modifying the installation just a little, such that I am going to mount on the back of the dock a small CPU fan, as the card's heatsink runs hot in such a small spot Did you find this review helpful?

Richrollin Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	1/8/2010 11:33:36 PM Jaton Geforce 6200 Pros: Best card for my HP Dc5000 SFF! Installation went smoothly, I can run Counter Strike Source on all high settings, and Street Fighter IV on low settings. My specs are: -Windows XP -Pentium 4 2.8ghz -1gb Ram -Jaton Geforce 6200! Cons: I thought I was getting a 128bit interface w/ a fan, but it turns out that I have the 64bit interface with a heat sink. This is the second time it has happened to me for this Jaton Gefoce 6200, but I'll stick with this card until I get a new comp. Other Thoughts: Its a great upgrade for my old low profile PC. Runs the Call of Duty 4 demo very well, even for a 64bit interface. I'm really satisfied with this card! Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
iGotEgged Tech Level: average Ownership: more than 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	6/27/2009 7:12:19 AM wrong card Pros: it was better than my on board 64 mb video card Cons: well today i decided to overclock my card witch should have been this card. so i go searching around and i run a program called GPU-Z and well my card that is installed is this card EXCEPT my card is 64 bit and it should have been a 128 bit card. i got EGGED Other Thoughts: thought i got what i payed for at the time i bought this card and i did not even think to check and see if i had been scamed or ripped off thats 1 mistake i will never make again. it was 92$ when i bought the card now its been to long and i have no way of returning this card to get what i payed for i doubt i will be using newegg or any sites connected to or partnered with newegg. since i am here i might as well check the other things i bought at the same time i bought this card and see if i got ripped off on those items as well 1 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

channelv Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year	5/17/2009 2:31:35 AM Decent card for multi-monitors Pros: I use this in a docking station that accomodates a PCI card, this I am able to output FOUR monitors total which is great for productivity. Cons: NOT for gamers. This card is 64-bit unlike what it says in the description - BEWARE. Also, the card is just a tad laggy in Vista Aero, but isn't really an annoyance. I just upgraded to a Jaton 8400 GS since I have had great experience with them and it works superbly. Other Thoughts: Jaton makes incredible cards for multiple monitors. Just use the nVidia unified drivers, and get Geforece 6 series and up and you'll be happy - especially if your laptop dock can take another PCI card - running 4 monitors on a laptop does wonders for multitasking and impressing friends! : ) Did you find this review helpful?

diesel78 Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: less than 1 day This user purchased this item from Newegg	4/9/2009 2:10:10 PM Pros: Easy to install. Prety much took care of itself once I put in and turned on. Didn't really have to mess with installation disc other than seeing if I really needed/wanted anything off of it. Card is awesome is you don't have a lot of room in your machine. Cons: None that I am aware of. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/18/2009 2:12:14 PM Quick, Easy and Effective Pros: Works great with limited-expansion systems like Dell Dimension E310/3100. No power supply needed. Cons: None, given the limitations of my system. Other Thoughts: I cheaped out in 2005 when getting a desktop and got a Dell Dimension E310/3100. The onboard video was passable at the time but I had been resigned to only paying older games at the lowest settings. Finally got around to upgrading the video card and this is like a new machine. PLEASE NOTE: Do not use the drivers on the CD that comes with the card. They are horribly outdated and didn't install properly on XP SP3. Go to NVIDIA's website and download the latest driver for your OS. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
C han Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: more than 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	12/14/2008 4:25:47 PM Pros: overclocked easly with Riva tuner not many good things managed to play CSS everything on high but got like 15 FPS Cons: Well when i installed the card with the CD that came with it it said that it might not work cause the drivers arent signed ? or something. i installed it and everytime i used the computer on the next boot up it would freeze on the windows logo :( really annoying so i finally downloaded i think recent drivers and it worked Other Thoughts: I bought a $ 15 VGA cooler from Stapels with a cool blue L.E.D. and i managed to overclock even more and got more playable frame rate on CSS :) but playing on de_dust was still a little hard :( Did you find this review helpful?

N/A Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	11/7/2008 3:41:15 PM Excellent Card, Dual Monitor easy installation Pros: Excellent Card, very good video quality, installed it on a low profile PCI slot on a Dimension 745. Works Perfect with Dual Monitor. Coudn't ask for a better card. Cons: None 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
JoeNC Tech Level: average Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	8/23/2008 9:02:43 AM Good Card Pros: This was a major upgrade from my intergrated intel card on my motherboard. Intel 845g on a old IBM 8303 sb2. Works pretty good with 2moons mmorp Cons: the CD that came with it was useless...had to go to jaton to get drivers...took me some time to get going but I am not a pc expert. probably more expensive then I needed but so far so good Other Thoughts: took some time to get going...changed the psu for mor wattage.....I would shop newegg again for sure.... 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

alper Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: less than 1 day This user purchased this item from Newegg	7/30/2008 3:18:56 PM Great for Dell Docking D Pros: It has different mode shingles. Adapter for dvi to vga. I installed it on my 6300M precision laptop. It worked like a breeze Cons: Installing was difficult but not graphic cards problem Other Thoughts: Great for adding a 3rd + 4th monitor scenerio. Lasts see how long it will last in there.

Matt Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	7/24/2008 12:32:33 PM Does the job Pros: I got this card to update my old celeron driven gateway. It does the job considering how ancient the PC is. Installation was easy and low-profile adapters were easy to swap out. Allows me to play all of my games at good settings. Was good to find a video card that allows us in the stone age to have fun too. Cons: It's outdated but then again so are the PCs that you would use it for so its not a con really. Other Thoughts: I previously used another Jaton Geforce card and it served me well for quite a while until it died on me. I really think it was the poor circulation in my micro tower that led to its failure rather than poor quality. Thats why I wasnt the least bit reluctant to go with another one. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Kev Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	6/19/2008 8:48:35 AM Pros: It is a good very card for the price. Cons: If my PC could handle it I would buy a better video card because it is a bit sluggish when playing really high demand graphic games. Did you find this review helpful?

Stywo0 Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	6/7/2008 4:35:47 PM Best PCI card I know of Pros: This is a great card considering it's PCI. This is how well it will run the following games in minimum settings, and my cpu is only 1.8ghz. Bioshock: 15 fps CSS: 30 fps Doom 3: 60 fps HL2: 40 fps Quake 4 (using Q4Max): 60 fps or 90 on duel servers. UT3: 30 fps (10 fps on the 5200 I upgraded from) It's probably the best Nvidia PCI card you can get, if not the best all together. Cons: None. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

Razor Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	3/20/2008 1:17:53 AM Nice Pros: I upgraded from an NVid 5200 to this card. They both have the same memory (256 Mb) and the core clock of this one is just a mere 50Mhz faster. The difference was night and day! The quality of things on most games (C&C3 Tiberium Wars, WoW) is twice as nice, while framerate only increases an average of 5-7 fps higher. If you're stuck with PCI, this is THE card to get! Cons: None, if you're looking for a PCI card, and not a PCI-e card. Other Thoughts: Wish I bought it months ago so I wouldnt've had to upgrade from my old Chaintech video card. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

T3h Tech Level: high Ownership: less than 1 day This user purchased this item from Newegg	3/16/2008 3:15:24 PM BROKE Pros: NONE Cons: i got it and opened the box. i put it in/instaled the drivers then guess what? A BLACK SCREEN. tryed to do it again then..... same thing Other Thoughts: dont buy this 1 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	1/9/2008 6:06:43 PM Very nice Pros: No fan, runs cool, extra brackets for low profile cases, DVI-to-VGA adaptor. Cons: Can't think of any. Other Thoughts: I needed a two-headed video card for a small form factor PC that only had PCI slots. I'm a programmer, not a gamer, so I can't speak to its performance. It is perfect for my needs. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
West Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	7/25/2007 2:47:08 PM As expected. Pros: Good G-force card. Cons: Obviously not an 8 series. you get what you pay for. Other Thoughts: Very good card for the money. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you?

gtr225 Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	6/23/2007 9:02:13 PM Great PCI Video Card Pros: One of the most powerful GPU's available for the PCI interface. Works fine with Ubuntu. On board fan is pretty quiet. Included DVI-RGB converter allows for dual monitor display + TV out. Cons: None Other Thoughts: I bought this card because my machine doesn't have AGP or PCI-E. The card installed relatively easily with Ubuntu 7.04 and now all of those detailed screen savers and desktop eye candy run good. This card is good for those who are stuck with old fashioned PCI but want a decent video card. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Jeremy Tech Level: high Ownership: more than 1 year	6/12/2007 2:23:13 PM Gets the job done, sorta Pros: its great if you have a low level motherboard and not much money. Cons: Not great for games. If your a soft gamer, like Counter Strike 1.6 or games from or before 2004, this is the card for you. Unfortunately, if your a gamer, like me, upgrade. i used to get like 10 FPS on Counter Strike Source, options recommended. Other Thoughts: If you have a lot of money, i would buy a new motherboard and get a PCI Express card. Much faster and cards are overall better. If your just looking to play solitare or Counter Strike 1.6, get this card. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
James Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	6/11/2007 8:59:31 PM Not a good match for VIA EPIA M motherboard Pros: Easy install. Low profile (hard to find). PCI. Wide screen support. Cons: "dxdiag" dies when running DX8 or higher. Quicktime fails. Noisy fan. Other Thoughts: I bought this card to replace the onboard video for my VIA EPIA M mini-ITX motherboard. The BIOS only allows me to select which is primary. I disabled onboard video via Windows XP, however, I do get a BSOD when running DX8 or higher. I ran dxdiag to figure out occaisional crashes. I think this is a good board, but not a good match for my motherboard. I do like the wide screen support, which the onboard video didn't. The fan is noisy when watching DVDs. I am not sure if I will continue to use it, or upgrade it for a different low profile PCI video card. YMMV (Your mileage may vary). 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you?

Audman Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	5/28/2007 9:19:45 AM Great Card when you are limited to PCI - low profile Pros: I bought this card to fit in a Small Form Factor HP desktop with a PCI slot. The LP bracket was easy to swap, and the card works great. If you need the low profile card AND bracket AND PCI slot, this is a great card. It is one of the best PCI - Low Profile cards I was able to find. Cons: The fan is a bit noisy, but its not a killer. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

Mylo Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	5/25/2007 5:03:05 PM DVI Pros: I bought a high definition monitor with a DVI port so I bought this video card and I noticed a difference immediately. I would recommend upgrading to DVI to anyone who's monitor supports it and this video card works great if all you support is PCI like me. Also this video card is very small, I had a GeForce 5500 FX before this and it was literally twice the size. Cons: none yet. Other Thoughts: convert to DVI Did you find this review helpful?

Hallucinator Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: less than 1 day	5/15/2007 2:12:56 AM Not bad Pros: I bought this (Open Box) card for $xx - it's for my Tyan s2850 because of 128-bit memory as stated by Newegg and it runs great, but........... Cons: ......only to learn shortly after ordering this video card that it REALLY has a 64-bit memory interface, not 128 bit! I was told that to have 128-bit memory, the card with NV43 core would have 8 memory chips with a bridge chip - while 64-bit NV44A only has 4. Other Thoughts: It's great for motherboards with PCI slots like my Tyan s2850 running by AMD64 FX-51 & 2x512mb ECC DDR3200. Did you find this review helpful?

computer maniac Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	4/25/2007 11:38:06 AM best pci video card Pros: could play games on high settings and it still runs great and it is better than a intergrade video card Cons: none Other Thoughts: if you cant play any video b/c of this video car then go to: http://db.jaton.com.tw/DownloadSiteSelect.aspx?ID=84338KL-T256-02&A=1&C=1 but download the FTP-2 and then you could play videos on your video card. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Gatorade Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week	3/30/2007 9:12:39 AM Great Pros: Great video card if you can only use PCI, like in a Dell. Runs CounterStrike: Source on full settings with HDR on full, Antialiasing(AA) 4x, Anisotropic(AS) 8x, everything else at highest setting at 1024 x 768. Runs Doom 3 at 800 x 600 on High settings with 2x AA. Same settings with Quake 4, but without AA runs smoother. Overall great card. Cons: Fails to run VLC media player or Windows media player(videos). Sound runs fine. Can't run Doom 3 at highest settings at 1024 x 768. Had to force it a little to get it in the slot. Other Thoughts: Dell Dimension 2400, Pentium 4 2.399 GHz, 1 GB ram. Nu-Eg ish aweshum. 10 out of 12 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
notovny Tech Level: average Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	3/5/2007 4:39:08 AM Pros: Basic 256 PCI Video card. Better than integrated graphics on an old machine, but won't knock socks off. Cons: Loud, but only for the first ten minutes or so. Probably not a card you want to use in a room someone has to sleep in. A bit pricey for what it does. Other Thoughts: Hooked into a Dell Dimension 2350. It wasn't completely compatible with the most recent NVidia drivers (WinAmp and Windows Media Player 11 kept crashing if hardware acceleration was on). Initially rolled back to the 84.21 drivers, but had some crashing issues with The Sims 2: Seasons. Finally downloaded drivers from Jaton's website, and so far, been steady. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/22/2007 8:52:01 AM Not bad card Pros: Worked perfectly after I got it installed. If PCI is the only thing you have then this is definitely the card to get. Fan works fine, hasn't over heated at all. Cons: It is a tight fit (or was with me). I had to take my sound card out to get this one in. Other Thoughts: Nice card, and as always with Newegg, great delivery. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

thomas144 Tech Level: average Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/21/2007 10:23:49 AM Unbelievably noisy little card Pros: Small, just managed to fit inside a mini-itx case, which was the reason I bought this card. Now using this in an old Dell Optiplex. Cons: Extremely noisy fan. Not suitable for use in any kind of media center PC. Caused my mini-itx system to immediatley reboot when running any kind of 3D graphics, like 3dMark2000. Could not use it for the purpose I had intended, but am able to use it in an old Dell Optiplex. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
oicu Tech Level: average Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/16/2007 6:47:32 AM Works great as second card Pros: I have an older dell and used this as a second card for running dual monitors. It works flawlessly with the onboard video. Cons: None discovered. Other Thoughts: This card is capable of running dual montiors by itself, however for isolation/performance I decided to use both the onboard video and the add-on card for each monitor. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Psychless Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/10/2007 2:38:36 PM Pros: Performs very well for all the games I play. If you have an older motherboard that only has PCI then this is the card for you. Cons: None really. Little high price for an older video card but not bad. Other Thoughts: If you are using onboard video, don't expect this card to disable it by itself. A quick call to customer support will help you get it working. Did you find this review helpful?

Gasman251 Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	1/25/2007 11:02:03 AM Good Card Pros: Easily installed as usual with PCI. Works GREAT for Second Life and SIM type games. Sped up the video performance nicely. Cons: None yet, other than as already stated, it's the old PCI style, but I like it. Other Thoughts: If you don't want to venture into the world of PCI Express or AGP, this is an outstanding card. And you don't have to deal with the price of the others.

chrislively Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	12/8/2006 12:31:23 PM Works in Vista Aero Pros: Works out of the box with Vista Aero. Cons: A little pricey for an older card, but there's not much choice in this area. Other Thoughts: I bought this to drive a third monitor for my Vista x64 build. It runs Aero fine, although there is a noticeable difference in dragging windows around on that monitor compared with the monitors tied to my main 6800xt agp card. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

K.Mandla Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg	12/3/2006 9:22:18 AM Good value and performance for a PCI card Pros: Great performance for the price. probably the best video card available to PCI-only machines. Low profile makes it very flexible. Low power requirements so it's useful in older systems. Several brackets for attaching to different cases. DVI-VGA converter. Silent onboard fan. Can run dual monitors. Plenty of memory. Good chipset. And of course, great shipping. Cons: No longer top of the line, so some recent games are still beyond its ability. Small performance drop between single-screen and dual-screen gaming. Other Thoughts: The card doesn't really have any faults outside of the fact that it's becoming dated. So if you need a good, solid video card that will fit a PCI slot, this is a great pick for the money. However, if you're after performance and can use a different slot format, go with something else. 11 out of 13 people found this review helpful. Did you?

N/A Tech Level: average Ownership: 1 day to 1 week	11/15/2006 2:47:26 PM Pros: The good news is that this card comes with SM 3.0 which runs Splinter Cell: Double Agent and most recent games Cons: low profile so it runs the game at a fair pace but low resolution Other Thoughts: if you want to play the most basic new games then this is the card you want. 2 out of 5 people found this review helpful.
