ASUS GeForce 9500 GT 1GB DDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card EN9500GT/DI/1GD2/V2/A

Pros: The card performs as you would expect given it's specs and it's pretty inexpensive. I bought it so I could watch movies from my hard drive on my 55" HDTV using the HDMI port and it plays Planet Earth in 1080p in stunning quality. However, I had some difficulty setting up the sound to come from the TV speakers. I used the SPDIF wire that comes with the card but it wouldn't play sound. I contacted the asus support guy who posted a response to another customer who had the same problem as me. Three days later he responded to my email with very detailed directions and diagrams. Once I did that, it worked great.

Cons: Wish it picked up sound like the ATI based GPUs do. It would have saved me a headache.

Overall Review: I am very pleased with Asus support

Pros: Even with running WoW with graphics up and distance extended, it stays quiet and cool. Graphics are very nice and and it fits easily into small form factor machines. (Shuttle)

Cons: The fan on the card is so large that it overlapped on to the spot where I would insert an additional PCI card, but I have really everything I need on the motherboard, so it does not matter for me.

Pros: Native HDMI output!! Nice fan is quiet yet it keeps the card always cool, even after hours of gaming. SLI ready, in fact I just bought another one of this to install SLI bridge.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Like I said I've always liked ASUS This card runs almost everything, just finished World at War, you cant run stuff on max but then again this is not a high end card. the 9800 might be better. But this card is the best for the money.

Pros: Great cooling, Very smooth, high FPS on Fallout 3

Cons: Rather large Heat sink n fan, but besides that, nothing wrong with it

Overall Review: The HS n F almost make this a tripple profile because of how far it sticks out. just keep n eye out for that. using a mid sized ATX board and it fills the PCI-3 + 2 other PCI slots that were well spaced.

Pros: price for a whooping 1Gb mem, Ease of installation, huge fan so it wouldn't fry your MB and handles Hulu desktop well.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Had it for $44 after MIR with free shipping. Couldn't be happier.

Pros: Plug and play, three video connections with HDMI, digital sound. seems to run ok with a reasonably quiet fan. well packaged.

Cons: none so far that I have encountered.

Overall Review: fairly fast shipping which was free from New Egg, supposed to have a rebate but haven't got that done yet.

Pros: Running 2 in SLI mode. They run great and quiet, easy setup.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Newegg is the best. Have doing business with them for years. Ordered the cards on monday afternoon and the cards were at my front door wednesday afternoon.

Pros: 1 GB of dedicated ram is nice for video viewing. the fan is very quiet and the design profile is quite compact. best choice for HTPC.

Cons: not the fastest chipset for gaming. gamer should get 9800 GT instead.

Overall Review: I was able to play Modern Warfare 2 with decent FPS
