Works fine, VGA output is junk

It works. This is not a blazingly fast card but that isn't what you would buy it for. You would buy this card to replace ghastly integrated video in a low-profile PC. A low profile PCI slot cover bracket comes in the box.

While the DVI output works great, the quality of the DAC used for VGA output is terrible. The image is fuzzy, even with a high quality LCD monitor and well-shielded VGA cable. The VGA output is usable for a second monitor, but just barely.

If you are only going to use the DVI output, this card is just fine. I am using this card in a low-profile Dell machine with two monitors connected via DVI and VGA outputs.

Nice cheap card, but HOT!

Nice card, very cheap but does the job. I don't use it for gaming - I was hoping to use the card to enhance an HTPC I have, but it turns out the hardware acceleration I need is not well supported yet in general. Still, does the job nicely. Easy install as well.

oh wow does it run hot. Hot hot hot. The heatsink and sad little fan on there will burn your hand off if you touch it while running at full speed. Beware!
