What's great about it: Copper heat sinks, No aluminum. Cool.
What's not so great: Most everything else.
Took too long to install driver and Catalyst program. Would not run COD4, Although it did run Doom 3 at max. Tried eveything I could think of to rectify. Ultimately I had to return it. I you need it for Doom then buy it, If you need it for COD 4, Don't buy it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: can't find any
What's not so great: wouldn't work out of the box. driver issues
i thought that i could get one last upgrade for my poor old agp system. Boy was i wrong! this card has never worked since i purchased it. poor communication with VisionTek( 3 day response to every e-mail) without any resulotion was a waste of time. I got a rma from them but why brother. this card is a lemon. I put my 1950 back in and have had no problems since. Buyer beware for sure.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: pretty box
What's not so great: installation, drivers. . .everything
Got this via UPS last week and after 4 days of trying to get the drivers to work (tried both VisionTek's & ATI's) I either can run the card with no 3d acceleration or go on a conintual loop crashing. The one time I did get it to run and pass DirectX testing it crashed my system everytime I loaded a game (couldn't even get past the initial splash screen on Diablo II of all games). Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Allows playback of blu-ray and hd-dvd with my P4 3.2GHz HT
What's not so great: Does not support Audio Out even after buying DVI to HDMI converter from VisionTek
Todays games need a fast processor. While this card is faster than my 6800GT the frame rates drop in modern games like BF2142 to 10fps even at resolutions like 1024x768. Money is better spent investing in a C2D computer and buying a PCI-Express graphic card. The card has one good thing going for it, it can reduce the strain on my P4 3.2Ghz (single core) and allow playback of blu-ray and hd-dvd smoothly. However, the HDMI output has no audio. VisionTek confirmed this via email and said only the PCI-Express graphic card has this feature. The PCI-Express card also cost half the price. You pay more for less buying this half-baked card. Look elsewhere for a good value.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
