Good Card!

Pros: Good, quiet card for use in an HTPC or for light gaming. Good value for the money.

Cons: Bumps my Windows experience rating down to a 3.4, but I wasn't expecting a high powered video card, so that's ok.

Overall Review: It's a great card for the HTPC I built, an Athlon 5200 based system (from parts lying around) with 3 gigs of RAM running Vista Ultimate x64. It runs Vista no problem at 1920x1080 resolution and so far has run every HD movie I've thrown at it beautifully, including a couple 1080p video files over 40 gigs! It's not a high end gaming card, but for an HTPC system, anything else is almost overkill.
