I just put this into my Dell Dimension 5100 and I'm very happy with it. I had an nVidia card of the same generation that gave me many hours of grief tweaking driver settings and configurations in order to use a flight simulator. This VisionTek card worked right out of the box!
What's great about it: Very easy to install
What's not so great: Long driver and software loading process - thought I had to reboot my system at one point. Need more info about process
I would recommend this to a friend!

I recently purchase this video card for a new HP Pavillion system, which came with only integrated graphics. I am not a gamer, so I don't know how the card performs for that crowd, but it does work very well with Vista Home Premium and the Media Center. I have it in dual mode using DVI to Connect to the moniter and the S-Video for connecting to a home TV network. It did improve my Vista Graphical Index rating from 2.6 to 3.4. I would recommend downloading the newest drivers for this card from the Visiontek website. For me the updated drivers increased the performance over the original driver package that came with the packaged CD.
I would recommend this to a friend!
