My brother just bought me this card, havn't got it yet. Any opinions about this card? And is getting a card like this, from an authorized manufacturer any worse than buying the actual ATI Radeon 9250?
 
ummm ya, it's a pretty suck card for anything other than internet and email. if you want a card for gaming get an eVGA GeForce 6600GT, they're about twice as much as that one on www.newegg.com ($160 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130220)
unless you have a really crap system, that's the best power for money card right now,if your running anything less than an athlon xp or pentium 4 forget it though, it won't be able to play any games.
 
Something happened to my mb, it's ****ed up and so now i'm using my old P4 celeron 1.7, have a new board for it, 1.5 Gb RAM. I'm not a gammer, but is this enough for at least video (movies)stuff?
 
you will be able to play games, just not "doom 3 at 1280..." you know what i mean...
 
it's perfect if you play non-gfx stuff like starcraft, warcraftIII, and diabloII and for watching movies
 
i thought movies and stuff could run on anything?

on my 1.1celeron 512mb pc133, pci gforce2 64m mmx...
runs everything, except DVD resolution high bit rate Xvid lagg's a little bit but smooths out after a few minutes. only thing i prolly couldnt run is HR-HDTV Xvid rips.

i even ran Quake3 and Halflife1 on medium on this peace of junk.
 
i had a buddy who had a 1.2 Athlon, 384MB of PC100 SDRAM, and a GeForce 2 MX200 and he could run HL2...Believe it or not.
