Recently available to the public, this card has some ups and a few downs. Installation was easy but read next section on things you must do before using. After this card was installed it has ran without a hitch. Playing everything we have thrown at it. Speed is almost identical to my Viper 770 but cost about $60 less. The big downfall with this card was in the drivers. The default CD that comes with the card should be immediately thrown in the garbage. Setup the card as a Standard VGA Card, go on the web, www.nvidia.com and download the reference drivers. Install these and Q3 will suddenly start playing as well as bunch more.

This card has been installed on 10 different machines in my store. Make sure you have 3 things done before installing.
1. Get the latest flash for you motherboard.
2. Via chipset MB's need the miniport driver to load this card
3. Via AGP Vxd's need to be installed before installing.

Intel chipset MB's have no known trouble as of yet. To take advantage of the 2X - 4X AGP most MB's over 6 month's old may require a flash. For the enthusiast this one is a steal but you will have to have a little knowledge to take advantage of its potential but for the price its to good to be true.
