My computer claims that it is PCI 3.0 compatible, I have a NVidia PCI 3.0 Graphics card I was attempting to replace with this one. I installed this card in my system and it would not boot.

Issues handling multiple monitors. Problems detecting secondary display even after multiple driver cleanup/reinstall. Handling multiple displays should not be trivial.

For a few dollars more you can get a card with much better performance.

Only had it a year, upgraded the whole computer, and this has already quit working. Sadly, I can't afford to buy my son another one, so he's just out of luck.

I have been pretty happy overall with the unit. I like the ability to purchase it in store for warranty and return policies. It really does perform well and has been able to handle just about any game I have thrown at it while keeping a decent temperature. The biggest issue I have had is AMD driver stability with Windows 10. After downloading the recommended updates I would occasionally get a blue, purple etc. screen at boot or after OS initialization. Card is built well and it has performed above my expectations for the price. Also works pretty well with MSI afterburner which is pretty cool (if you don't like using Radeon settings).

I am a complete newb about upgrading PC's, but I installed this card inside of 5 minutes. It's only been a day, but the fantastic difference between the HD Graphics and this is night and day. Simple to install, just clip it in. No other plugs or wires.

Great Entry Card and Brand

I bought this card as a interim card while i dealt with an RMA from XFX this was my 3rd card i bought of this brand and for a basic card to get me by as my Motherboard has no built-in Graphics chip able to run in windows 10. here is the run down of games and stuff,
Sound- card is quite even when fans run i could not hear them over my other case fans as i did with my XFX Radeon R9 390 DD 8GB (the card RMA)
Graphics - while i waited for the RMA i was able to do most my gaming except for skyrim with ENB but the card can play skyrim without an ENB at near perfect 60FPS some mods had to be removed that required the ENB
Games played include but not limited to at 1920x1080@60Hz:
Skyrim LE
Skyrim SSE
Fallout 4,
Winning Putt Golf MMO
Call of Duty MW3
among others
only Fallout 4 and CoD MW3 had lower FPS but was playable
Now as a company i have nothing but praise for them as the RMA went flawless great support on the phone. Office in southern California. My 390 card was tested found fulty after almost 2 years of use. they then sent me a new card a RX 480 8GB RS Version BB exclusive with Fan Swap which they felt was comparable to my 390 (not made anymore) had a minor issue with Black screens with new card their phone support told me what to do since the RX 550 was still being used though i updated and reinstalled the drivers once to change the cards out. so far no issues with the Black screen. XFX is the best company i have dealt with from RMA and that is something since i normally use Asus, Thermaltake, corsair and AMD parts and have RMA with ASUS before (they have good Service but no where near the quality XFX has Shown).
A+ service by the brand and solid card for casual but sometimes heavy gaming
