I wasn't looking for anything fancy just a solid card I could do some online gaming with. I wanted more speed and better graphics than the computer had. This worked exactly as I had hoped.

Easy install, I am on Windows 10. It worked from the start and I have found no issues with the card. I am a general at home type user with some heavy duty spreadsheet work as well as database work at home ad the card serves me well.

I have the 1gb ddr3 R5 220 and kept the 2gb ddr3 R5 220 for short term. Reason being it actually under performed compared to the 1gb version. Note that the 2gb version is 25mhz under clocked.For watching videos, playback or streaming this should be good. But, to run the games i ran with the 1gb which i OC not so much. Even when i Overclocked this 2gb version, it didn't meet my expectations(Comparing to the 1gb edition). I recommend you get the 1gb if you game with some minor online games or older games. Otherwise the 2gb version is actually a better product, as it did score higher Frames per second on the PSO2 benchmark compared to the 1gb version. But, crashed on my GW2 and Overwatch(Surprisingly the 1gb edition can play at lowest settings)

I needed a PCI express card to get a computer up and running and this card worked like a dream. Much better than what was in there, the price was right and it was available at the store. COuldn't want more.

I needed to get a computer with only VGA output up to date, and this fit the bill. It has a dedicated HDMI output that can carry audio directly to a TV, as well as boosts the media playback performance on an aging computer. It's not a gaming card, but it wasn't meant to be. Works well for its intended purpose.

Talked to my bro in law who recommended I get this graphic card due to updating my PC to the current Windows 10 and my default graphic card no longer supporting my LCD monitor. Easy install, plug and play pretty much and done deal. My LCD monitor looks back to normal with a very bright and crisp picture.

Easy upgrade on my desktop to replace failed onboard video. Installation took less than 10 minutes from opening the case to restating the computer. No problems since. I'd buy again.

Fits both sff and full height slots, crisp 1920x1080 and has sound throughput using AMD, windows, or Realtek. I am not a gamer though, just stream hulu, etc...

My original graphics card died a few weeks ago and I didnt want to spend the money for anything high end. This was it!!!! This card is affordable and doesnt break the bank. It has newer GDDR3 memory and is an upgrade to my older one that died. Windows detected this with no problems. I personally like the fanless design and it tends to wear out over time and sometimes makes noise. If you're not looking for anything used for gaming or high end graphic intense applications, then this card will work.
