Most Favorable Review

Great choice for older PCI interface

EVGA GeForce FX 5500 128MB DDR PCI Low Profile Graphics Card 128-P1-N320-LX
EVGA GeForce FX 5500 128MB DDR PCI Low Profile Graphics Card 128-P1-N320-LX

Pros: - Great choice for older PCI interface... this card is one of the best performaning cards for PCI at 128mb - eVGA stands behind their products and has good US presence if you need support, warranty, etc. - Product was truly plug and play for me in my Dell Dimension 3000 - Nice upgrade that will be needed if you plan on running Windows Vitsa

Cons: - None that I can think of... other then PCI is slow and out dated... but that is no fault of this card... fault of my old motherboard.

Overall Review: NVIDIA supports Windows Vista better/faster with their older generation PCI cards then ATI does.

Works great with my Dell Dimension 3000

Patriot 1GB DDR 400 (PC 3200) Desktop Memory Model PSD1G400

Pros: - Plug and play with my Dell Dimesnion 3000 no issues - Shipping and price can't be beat... $93.99 after mail in rebate - Patriot Memory makes the product in the USA and stands behind their product in terms of support, warranty, etc. - Patriot Memory has a decent web site with support, contact info, product info, etc. They also have a nice configurator tool to make sure you get the correct memory for your computer

Cons: - None

Overall Review: Similar memory but computer hardware branded/spec'd... was 30% to 85% more when you factor in shipping, tax, etc.
