This is a good budget card for people who aren't hardcore Gamers, This card will play 1080p bluray movies great and doesn't have a fan making this card ALOT quieter than most other budget cards you can get. If you are looking for a card to use for a server computer, HTPC or even a home computer this card is great! If you are looking for a gaming card you might want to look at the $100.00 range. Although I was able to get this card to play BF3 at playable FPS on low settings.

lasted me a long time until i upgraded to a high end gpu. What an experience! Good for a HTPC or an up from intergrated grapics if it doesnt have all 3 video ports. Great product, but not for computer fanatics. Great.

I purchased this card to replace the one I had onboard. On a computer that is used primarily for surfing the internet, and listen to video. Obviously this is not a video card to play. But for everything else, and the price is perfect.adding hdmi and dvi port is also very interesting.
I was looking for the cheapest PCI-e card sans MIR that wasn't several generations old, and at $30, this was it. I wanted something quiet but that could run Aero+basic office tasks. This card can do that with ease, and does not get hot despite its lack of a fan. Load temps are lower than my GTX470's idle temps.

If your looking for a quiet HTPC graphics card and need an upgrade this will do the trick. The card includes a micro ATX adapter atleast for me and it works decently enough.
This card is great for a HTPC as it is quiet, fanless and has quite the low profile. My motherboard is quite old and it works just fine. The options for DVI, VGA and HDMI out are great, makes switching displays easier.

bought for a friend who only browses the internet and casually plays some games. Works great for her. A little bit too hot while operating, but acceptable.

Bought this for an HTPC build and it has lived up to it has expectations. Nice to have a totally silent video card for a change. Hopefully the maill in rebate shows up soon. Let's face it, cards like this are probably only worth 30 or 40 bucks brand new anyway. Anyhow, if you want a low profile, silent card for regular PC duties, this is a good choice.
