I gave this a 3/5 because this product probably wasn't meant to be used for HTPC as it does say something about being rated for up to 30" displays.

For the price this card does what it needs to do. I work primarily with Premier and Photoshop, not some much on the gaming and I did notice a slight improvement in the response times in those two applications, however nothing of significance. If I were to re-order, I would look a bit more higher end. Having the various output types is nice as it allows for a second monitor, as well as a connection to a TV. Overall, for what I paid for it, I am satisfied.
