Great card for the money , Would suggest it if your updateing that old trusty GeForce 2 card . Good overall general card . There are better cards out there no doubt , cost more $$ too. Didn't have a problem like others playing Call of Duty 2 , mine played just fine (played at 1024x768 any less and it was decent but better at the higher rez).

Only good for price. I got this card almost a year ago and it runs Doom 3 on low, halflife 2 and CS:S on medium, BF 2 on low, Call of duty 2 on medium, running py 2.4ghz 512 mb (as of today 1gig) so i dunno how much that upped the performance of games, i recomend if u have alittle more cash get a 5500 or 6200 or even a 6600 if u have the money
