Nice Card

Reviewed By: mock on 12/14/2006

Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Nice card for the money. Every game I've played runs great. Nice picture on my flatscreen.

Cons: Svid input is terrible, falls out easily.

Other Thoughts: I was going to get a second card to run SLI, but haven't needed it yet.

Decent budget card

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Pros: 12pixel pixel pipe.
EVGA makes quality video cards.
Physically resembles a quality electronics assembly.
Hooked this up to my ECS "El cheapo" mobo and runs without an issue. The visual quality is better on my eyes than my Radeon 9800 pro. ATI cards are not as vivid with color as Nvidia cards. This is a good card. Runs FEAR on 75% maxed out settings. Not as fast as I expected, but the image quality is great. The ATI cards are fast but are somewhat blurry.--Just a little. For direct 8 generation games--this card kills!--high frame rates. This card eats games like Call of Duty maxed out. I had no problems with ATI but I think the Nvidia cards are more colorfully appealing in my eyes.

ECS939 basic Nforce 4 board (non SLI)--1PCIe slot
1.5 gig of DDR 400 generic
3700 San Diego 1MB L2 cache AMD
500 watt Rosewill 16Amp 12+Rail Power suppy.-- SLI ready.

Cons: Should be about $15 bucks cheaper since it's 128bit memory interface.
The EVGA site and box recommends a 18Amp 12+ Rail Powersupply. Im using a 16 Amp with no issues and running two 7200rpm EIDE ATA Seagate drives.

Other Thoughts: Not a significant performance jump from my 9800pro, however it's PCIe and AGP is going away. The image quality really stands out, even in desktop 2D pics look more vivid than my ATI 9800pro and 9600pro.

Pretty good for the $$

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Good price point that can do pretty much whatever i need it to

Cons: Card started showing corruption in windows pretty much the same day i installed it (showed pink/green flag like pixelation throughout the picture). I tried everything to fix it; re-install the os, different pc, different drivers, etc.. I returned the card to newegg (awesome turnaround!) and got a new one which works perfectly! The other thing i dont like about this card is that the component/s-video out cable doesnt plug into the card very firmly and can fall out with a slight breeze.

Other Thoughts: I bought this card for my media center (so i dont even use this card with a monitor) and it performs very well rendering every type of video i throw at it with no stuttering or quality issues.
