>> Great Product
Ever since I had 2 other PCI Video Cards on this Dell Dimension 3000 I did some research on some PNY/E VGA/BFG Tech/ATI/etc PCI Video Cards I found out that BFG Tech has a life time warranty Which the other companies don t have So that means you get a life time warranty on a product that will last for years
Pros
1 Offers 4 0 Shader Model
2 512MB of DDR2
3 Has the performances of x2 more than the BFG Tech 6200 OC
4 Has DVI/VGA/S Video
5 Has HDCP Capable
6 Life Time Warranty
Cons
1 Did not come with a DVI to VGA Adapter
2 Poorly made Heatsink Fan I would recommend a PCI Fan Card to cool down the GPU
3 The Video Card temps are reading 47c I would recommend a PCI Fan Card to cool down the GPU
4 PCI Interface is not recommended for gaming or HD Movies
5 The Nvidia Settings are showing my second display which is a LCD Monitor as a CRT Monitor
6 On the VGA connector it s showing CRT on the Bracket Plate It s VGA not CRT
>> Unable to install
To date I have been unable to successfully install this item The written quick install instructions were clear and well written but inadequate A detailed email to their tech support produced a canned response also inadequate I don t know where to go from here Nvidia has a good reputation so I gave this a 3 for that reason alone
>> GeForce 8400 GS 512MB
This card works great I bought it to watch College football games on ESPN360 on my HDTV connected to my PC The performance is very acceptable for this functionality
