AWSUM....for PCI

Best thing for a reg 'ol PCI system....runnin an old Intel board with a 2.4ghz and had no AGP system even....put this in and my games are rockin!!!!

wish they had at least a 8000 or 9000 x600 nVidia series for PCI....but this will have to do!!!

get this if you only have PCI and not AGP or PCI-E compatible MoBo!!!!

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Mixed Feelings

It ran all Source Engine games perfectly with everything maxed but Antialiasing, and runs Crysis Warhead and Crysis Wars at about 20-25 fps, which I consider playable.

It broke after 1 month of use when I plugged my USB stick in. I'm getting it replaced from Newegg as we speak.

According to a tech expert I recently talk to, Sparkle does NOT make reliable cards. I don't plan on buying anything from them again anytime soon.
