The flicker will drive you nuts
03/30/2010
This review is from: BFG Tech GeForce 210 512MB DDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Low Profile Ready Video Card BFGE210512D2E
Pros:
Cheap. Runs everything fine. Not a bad card, but not a good card either. Adequate at best.
Cons:
With multiple monitors enabled, your screens will flicker in Windows 7. You can mostly get rid of it by using a 'Basic' or 'Classic' theme, but then it looks like you're running a PC from 1999. Doesn't matter if you upgrade to the latest nVidia drivers, you'll always get the flicker when Aero Glass is turned on.
Overall Review:
Buy it only if for somebody else that does not use multiple monitors. If the card if for you, spend the extra 5 to 10 bucks for something better. You won't be sorry. Even the next BFG card up from this one is much better - an NO FLICKERING.
