I picked up this card from the store, since it's the only AGP card on sale, to drive my 22in widescreen monitor (at resolution 1680x1050). The installation of the card and driver (from the CD) was straightforward and had no problem and the pictures were rock solid at the desired resolution. BUT then a couple of days later, it started exhibiting repeated ghost pattens of whatever been displayed on the screen. I had to reboot my PC to make it go away but then the problem would come back again every time. I tried with both VGA and DVI ports with no difference. So, I'm returning it for something else. It's a shame. It does work beautifully. Maybe I just got a defective card.

Card was defective. My board doesn't have an integrated VGA device, yet it said it didn't detect the card. I got a resolution in a decent size but since the drivers wouldn't download it was useless. The card was installed for a total of maybe 2 hours, then it fried. I have a ATI Radeaon 9800 pro in my desktop thats been running strong, problem free, for about 4 years. But its the only and last ATI product i will ever own =/

I bought this card for my Dell Dimension computer. It previously had only 16mb card. I put it in and it works great! The perfect graphics card!

Good upgrade from onboard video of only 32mb, yeah I've got an old board. Video card is different then one pictured, there's no fan on mine. Not too big a deal but it seems to run hot and a fan might have helped. Price is perfect, bought it just to hold me over til I upgrade my whole system. No problems so far!

Could not get the drivers to load properly. My desktop computer recognized the card as a Radeon 9000 mobility. I checked the ATI site and it does not appear that there ever was a 9000 Mobility chip made, let alone drivers for it. My screen flickers and occasionaly goes blank for 1 to 2 seconds. When I contacted Diablotek for help, they just pointed me to a download site to get drivers, which again did not load. I don't know if this is a faulty card or crummy drivers. In any case, not a good buy.
