Good Graphics Card!
Reviewed by Gary. Review Posted 13/01/2009
Bought for a budget build...
Performs well. Vista runs smooth with full aero support. Not run any games on it yet, but spec wise it shouldn't pose any problems...
Runs silent with no fans at all, but a sizeable heat sink that supposedly uses the airflow within the case to cool.
Good cheap card!
