Bought this originally for the video card form factor, I used it for a few clients that want inexpensive gaming and CAD/DICOM viewing. You can pay more and buy a better card, but it works well for the price and the form factor. Fits well into slim line machines, which was my original need.

Great basic card. Includes an NVENC chip for video processing, which is a great bonus.

This is a great little low profile graphics card.It has DVI-I and HDMI ports, and works in PCI Express 2.0 X8 bus interfaces. Most PCI Express interfaces are backwards compatible, so chances are this will work in yours. Just check the printing on the motherboard.It comes with a full height riser, and the low profile one. All screws and everything are included. It takes like 2 minutes to swap them out.I use this for CAD work, and it’s fantastic. On games, it handles pretty much everything I throw at it, but I wouldn’t call myself a hardcore gamer. The 2gb of ram and the clock speed really take a graphics heavy application and make it shine.

I have this video card installed on the ThinkServer TS140 however it causes the system to hang intermittently. The video quality is very good though.

Worked very well for 3D panoramic dental images.

No matter what drivers I tried using with this thing, it constantly causes Windows (8.1) to freeze and blue screen. Finally got tired of it and ripped it out. I literally spent days trying to get it to work. Waste of money.

La compre para una pc no muy exigente que al instalarze el windows empezo a dar pantallasos azules, no supe porque pense que era otra pieza pero resulto que esta tarjeta grafica era reparada y se soldo a mano de forma erronea. Muchas de estas que venden son reparadas

These are yesterday’s news, but they are quite powerful at their price point. Exceptional value for music studio computers, etc. that need passive cooling yet decent performance. One star off for asinine design of heat sink – covering screw to allow you to change to low profile bracket. This requires removing the heat sink (and supposedly voiding the warranty). Wouldn’t stop me from making a claim if I needed to, however. So far, this is performing superbly well.

Easy to install. Works great. More features than I though it would have.

Well, it wasn’t exactly plug and play, due to the integrated cpu. However, I managed to get all the drivers installed and changed my bios settings to use the card for my graphics. It works like a champ so far. Great product thus far. I am satisfied with this purchase

I’m actually kind of surprised by this little card. I bought it because I wanted to put something in my newly built gaming computer while I waited on my other GPU just so I could use my computer for work and youtube and other small tasks. Well I ended up loading Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim up and seeing what those would do. It actually plays them and on med/high/ultra settings depending on whats loaded. I even have New Vegas modded. Color me surprised. The card is a nice little productivity card for the price. The card likes to hover around 32 degrees C while idle or under light load and rises to a meager 34 degrees while playing games or under heavy load. Overall it’s a great card for the office or even doing some media editing or light gaming on.

As long as you keep in mind that this is a budget card, it’s a fantastic performer for the price. It can handle a surprising number of games, though obviously it is limited to low or sometimes mid level settings for most of them if you want acceptable FPS.Even on lower settings though, don’t expect to run any graphically demanding games with huge open worlds without a hitch. The most graphically demanding open world game I had installed at the time of purchase was Ghost Recon: Wildlands, which this card was able to handle to a reasonable degree… Just not smoothly. Still more power than I was expecting from the price tag, though.

Beat my expectation for speed and quality improvement when playing games. Great price, fits and works very well in my HP SFF PC with only a 240v PSU. Fantastic.

It’s about as nice a card as you can get for a PCI-e 16/2.0. Given it’s age, it naturally needed its drivers updated, which was effortless via W10.

My PC is running games good. I running games at 720p 30 to 60 frame per second. It’s a out dated card but good for the cost

As far as this product being exactly what I expected it gets five stars. I have to also give it five stars for its value for the money. I have to drop it to four stars because, while I’m so happy I can play games I couldn’t before, it it only marginally better that the apparently obsolete Nvidia 430 I replaced with this purchase. While probably considered midrange, if you or the one you’re buying this for is playing video games this is the minimum at the time of this writing. For you who are on a budget like me this is the best you can do. This is the best value for the money *at this time.* When you start spending more money than this you have to start worrying about reliability and the physical size of the graphics card. With a product like this don’t sweat paying a few extra bucks for the most reputable seller.

So I bought this card with the intention of giving my optimism 780 a new graphics card to game decently, and it worked just fine was able to install the drivers from the included CD and was able to play some games at medium to high settings over all good purchase.
