Card has heatsink only, no fan (new version I think)

Card has heatsink only, no fan (new version I think)

The card arrived but the box and the card itself are different from the photo on Amazon! Basically, I think this card has been overhauled since Amazon took the photo. The card is shorter in length now and just has a heat sink instead of a fan on it. ...

Great First-time Upgrade

For your first graphics card upgrade this is a great choice particularly if you're not interested in spending a lot of moeny as for around £25 this is amazing value for money. I agree with previous comments that for the most recent games you may have...

Good budget card

Good budget card

This is a good first graphics card if you're struggling along with an integrated card, common on many pc's. \nIt improved my pc to the point of being able to run GTR2 and enjoy it, although I had to run it with average video settings. \nI would not...

Great for the price.

Great for the price.

It runs my 19" Samsung and a 26" Sony fairly well. When just one monitor is running the pic is almost as good as the Virgin cable TV. I think you'd need to spend an awful lot more to do much better.

Very fast delivery and excellent value. No need to spend hundreds of pounds - this delivers all that you need for the latest games and more. Need for Speed runs amazingly.

Lasted one week

Plugged into an ASUS motherboard. On the first real day of use, one screen started to flicker on and off and the other got pixelated, then the system froze. Rather disappointed as PNY is usually a good product.

Not meant for games IMO

  by Joseph (newegg.com) - Dec, 2010

This card is made for NON-gamers. I am a gamer so its not for me. Its still a good card so I am not going to write a bad review. However it lags a little with Youtube, can't run non-video card intensive games like Team Fortress 2 over 10fps. I COULD be...

Cheap ; Runs cool ; Has VGA and DVI for older monitors

Not PCIe so other 8400 GS models kick this one's ***. A lot of times people include the product's specs in the cons. This doesn't make sense to me. I know this card doesn't have high core speeds and shaders and its not DDR5. If I needed that then I...
