XFX PVT44AWANG GeForce 6200 256MB GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card (VGA/DVI/S-Video) Reviews
Card is a major improvement over older card. Much better graphics, better resolution and more stable picture. I highly recommend this card for anyone who is looking for a Big Visual Improvement at Low Basement Price. Purchased this card to replace a older 64MB. Cant Beat Amazon on Shipping and Price.
I don't do gaming so it was hardly stressed. The card burned out in less than two months in a large, well ventilated, aluminum case.
Also I use a program called SpeedFan to track the GPU and CORE temperatures of my video card. I bought this card to replace my old ASUS GeForce2 MX/MX 400 AGP card. Another thing I liked about this card is, being AGP and with todays technology leaning more towards 8x AGP support, this card does give you the versatility of 4x/8x. My old card couldn't handle it. So I would recommend you to make an investment into cooling.
All they have to do is register the unique ID on the XFX registration webpage. If you sell this card to a friend or whoever they can also take advantage of the lifetime warranty. Although rated for use with a 300w PSU minimum, some people claim that they are able to run this card on a 250w PSU. Meaning, if you card takes a dump do to defects of the manufacturing, they WILL replace it.
Some of you that have older system may also have an 'out-dated' CPU. One Con: Runs hot. A simple case fan blowing over the motherboard would most likely help. It is stated on the website that this warranty does NOT cover damages caused by overclocking.
I used to play at the resolution of 800x600 now I'm able to play at 1024x768 with no GPU based problems. I'm a casual gamer. This card handles it perfectly. I'm using an older AMD Sempron 3000+ 2GHz. This card is supported on older motherboards equipt with 4x AGP slots. Be informed that running a card on a 250w PSU that is rated for 300w may work, but you do have a chance of card failure and/or having a shorter life span. Although a great card, it does tend to get hot after vigorous usage.
This card comes with a Double Life Time warranty. All-In-All: Great card well worth it for the money. So if you have an older motherboard. I only see some bottle-necking, but that is CPU based problems. Invest in cooling fans. I play alot of Day Of Defeat: Source and with the recent Steam updates, they took advantage of the new shader system.
Very easy to install and has been working without problems since install. Bought this one because it has no fan. Bought this card for my Linux DVR, I had another card in it but it had a fan which was surprisingly loud.
I just still need something better. I needed a better card for a game I was playing. I was wrong. I assumed this would be better than my old card simply because I was going from 128 to 256. There's nothing wrong with the card; it works perfectly.
