I'm giving this card 5 stars because of the price to performance ratio. It is nothing short of outstanding. It's a great little card for most users needs. It also fits easily in just about any case. Buy it!

My old card had a fan that was making a lot of noise - got this as a replacement. I run two monitors but don't do any fancy photo editing or gaming, so not pushing it particularly hard.

I used this in an older PC to upgrade some video features and add multiple monitors to it. It worked really well for being inexpensive. And no it's not a gaming PC.

Had upgraded our computer to Win10. Old card had no drivers to allow dual monitors. This is a good, inexpensive fix. Running a VNC client on one screen and our DMX lighting software on the other. No problems.

Awesome performance for a budget priced graphics card. I can play new games on a older computer using low settings but still have the playability.

I have enjoyed the silence that this card has added to our PC. IT has been working great and we have had no issues. Regular pc use, light gaming and video streaming to a 55 in samsung Via Hdmi.

I just needed a video card that plays nice with Windows 10 that can be used for anything but gaming. This fit the bill perfectly. Bonus that it's passively cooled and silent.

I bought this GPU for my cousin's older PC. He bought games to play but couldn't because of the very old card in his computer. I installed it and it worked flawlessly. The Best Buy staff were very helpful.

This is a quick solution for older PCs with no GPU built in. If you want it for gaming, buy something else. But if you need video for that old crate of yours, this is fine.
