ASUS Radeon HD 3450 DirectX 10.1 EAH3450/HTP/256M 256MB 64-Bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card

Pros: Pros for me: No fan to break down. Good sized heat sink for the size of the board. Very good looking board.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I just built a new AMD Athlon 64x2 5400 computer. Everything is new from the ground up. I have a Biostar A77 AM2+ board which has the AMD 770 chipset. This is the budget version of the 790. So far I haven't experienced any problems with this video card. I must admit I don't do a lot of gaming. I do play Battle stations Midway, which is a bit video intensive. This video card hasn't failed me yet. Even after playing for 2 to 3 hours at a time. I'll update this if something happens.

Pros: Great card for watching movies using PowerDvd 7 and Sony internal Blu-Ray player. CPU loads in single to low teens while watching movies. Does not get hot. Fanless design works great. 1080P looks great!

Cons: Took hours to find drivers that did not have issues (side bar not loading, parts of windows left on desktop after closing). ATI 8.5 drivers works great. 8.6 and newer had problems. No DVI to HDMI converter.

Overall Review: HP Media Center PC with Intel E6400 CPU. 2 gig ram. Replaced ATI 1950 Pro because of fan noise. Would have been 5 eggs if newer drivers worked. Vista Home Premium. Using DVI to HDMI converter (from ATI 3870 purchase) to Sony HDTV.. Not using cards internal sound (only 5.1).

Pros: Looks and works amazing. Pretty small in size. Mid-cool card- 50c idle, 60c loaded. Low power consumption; Works flawlessly in a 250w (with +12v total 16a, total system using 13a now). Overclocked 15mhz core & 100mhz core. 3DMark03 score of 5200, 3DMark06 score of 2500. Huge upgrade from onboard graphics. Games pretty well to, plays CoD2 max detail, 4xaa,af at 30fps. Raised vista experience index from 3.0 to 4.0 with stock clock, and 4.4 with oc. $35 plus 10 dollar rebate.

Cons: Drivers. Don't use CD; just download latest drivers from AMD Game and you're good to go.

Overall Review: Pre-Built Acer Aspire M3100 2 x 1g RAM Athlon 64 4400+ X2 250w PSU w/ 16a total in vrail 32-bit Vista Home Premium Nothing overclocked except this card, (see pros).

Pros: On my brother's Dell Dimension 8400 (3.6GHz 4GB DDR2 800FSB) this thing ran TF2 @ 1024x768 with all textures at the highest settings, no AA, AFx4 at a steady FPS of 50-60. Never dropped below 18 when playing on a full 32 player server. You're not gonna find too many cards that'll do that for the price. Even without a fan, this thing stays nice and cool and my brother's PC, is at times, like a small heater because of that power sucking processor. Enough said.

Cons: None. Totally satisfied.

Overall Review: This card isn't going to run Crysis, tuck you in at night, or kiss your boo boos when you get an owwie. But for the price, I can't see how anyone would expect those sorts of results from this particular GPU. Great deal for the price. I love Asus.

Pros: Much better than the onboard nforce HDMI in my media PC. Scores a 4.2 in Vista 64-bit, and although it doesn't explicitly say so, it does correctly route digital audio through the DVI connector. Excellent picture quality and performance at 1080p

Cons: It doesn't include the DVI to HDMI adapter, and it does obviously use a lot more power than the onboard video- my temp-sensitive fans are definitely moving a lot more air now, which is a con for a media pc.

Overall Review: Great bang for the buck especially with the rebate.

Pros: This card works great for the price. Fast, and I was able to play COD 4 on it with a couple lower settinng of course. It dosent seem to run warm on my PC.

Cons: DON'T INSTALL DRIVERS FROM DISK! Go to ATI website and download a 3400 series driver and your good to go.

Overall Review: Its a good budget card if your like me and not willing to pay hundreds of dollars on a video card. For the people who are having problems and giving this card low ratings read other comments and take some computer lessons ;)

Pros: Low profile, no fan, component out.

Cons: none that I can think off.

Overall Review: I bought this card with specific purpose of putting it into HTPC machine I am putting together. My older HDTV does not have a digital input, so I had to have a card with component out. The card works like a champ with no issues and no noise.

Pros: It does what I expected and no more. Low end card, but hey, that's why it is cheap.

Cons: Wish I was richer.
