    Others have noted the driver installation issues. I’m running Windows XP Pro, and I encountered these as well, but managed to install the packaged drivers eventually. They worked fine once installed. I also installed the audio HDMI drivers. These caused some issues, since they overrode some default audio driver settings; if you’re not using speakers built into your monitor, this will disable your speakers. Fortunately, it’s relatively easy to go through the control panel sound settings for each user and make sure they are set back to the drivers previously in use.

    Other than these installation issues, this card has been a pleasure to use, with good rendering characteristics. It replaces my failing ATI Radeon 9800 XP.

    I bought this card via Amazon and am extremely happy with the results. I’m using it on an older (circa 2001) Tyan S2466 dual processor AMD Athlon MP card, 2.1 Ghz, and AGP 4x. The reports about this video cards’ onboard HD sound drivers killing the mobo sound are apparently bogus. The HD drivers are loaded along with the existing drivers and they become primary, but the prior audio device is still there as secondary. Just go into Windows control panel -> sounds and audio devices -> audio tab and select the previous audio device from the 2 drop down lists. You can go back and forth between the new HD audio drivers and any existing audio drivers this way.

    The “IDE-Q” cooling system, that blows the GPU heat OUT of the box rather than leaves it in – why don’t all video cards do this?? what a great idea – works wonderfully. My GPU temp on this video card is 46C, down from 58C for the old Matrox card. The temperature of both processors in the PC are down about 5 degrees C too not having all that GPU heat left in the box.

    The DVI digital video quality is stunning IF YOU USE A VERY GOOD DVI CABLE! 30 years of working with computers here I can tell you from experience that using a double shielded VGA cable (each of the 3 colors individually shielded) made a huge difference on VGA cards and monitors, and that a double shielded DVI cable made a massive difference here in picture (Samsung 24 inch flat screen monitor) vs. the cheapo DVI cable that came with the monitor. Using the cheapo there was lack of sharpness, and the monitor wasn’t getting enough signal at times and kept going into standby. Switching to a 10 ft double shielded, gold contact, $20 DVI cable solved it all. Razor sharp picture and no false standy mode. Don’t cheap out on the DVI cable after buying this great card!! The DVI cable quality is as important as the card.

    And the HDMI output works like a champ, too. That is going to a 42 inch flat screen TV.

    I loaded the drivers on CD that came with the card first, worked great. Then loaded the update driver from the HIS site, and almost great. That loaded an additional copy of Visual C++ redistributable that I didn’t need causing a conflict (also will try to load .net 2.0 but you can opt out on this one if you already have it installed). After 3 reboots the PC sorted out its I/O memory and all worked great. Nuked the second Visual C++ redistributable in add/remove programs.

    Can’t say yet if the Avivo DVD/Bluray acceleration works, since I’m having to upgrade to a WinDVD version that supports it. Also can’t say anything about gaming performance – I’m not a gamer – bought this card solely to support a future upgrade to Windows 7, get more memory on the card so I could reduce the AGP aperture size (the old 16 MB Matrox required a 256 Mb aperture to keep from locking up the PC, now I’m down to 64 MB), be able to use a DVI instead of VGA cable and get the GPU heat out of the box directly.

    WOW!! What an improvement over my older AGP card (ATI Radion x800xt PE). All my new games can now run with high graphics settings.

    The installation of the newest ATI drivers was a bit tricky. I had to use the hotfix 9.8 drivers.

    [...]

    I am sure that this is only because of how new this card is, and future drivers will work fine. Anyways, this is only the ATI Catalyst drivers; the card works great!!

    With the fan on the card venting through the expansion slot, my computer stays nice and cool while running all the games I play. I recommend this card to anyone with only the AGP 8X graphics ability, and the need for a higher graphics capability on par with all but the newest and priciest PCI-E cards. And since it also has an HDMI output, it’s probably the best 128-bit AGP 8X card out there.

    I purchased this card for my son’s AMD Athalon 3000, gigabyte MB, 1G memory, Windows XP Pro. I didn’t want to build a new computer so purchased this to hopefully extend the life of the computer another couple of years before a new build.

    Nice specs, but very buggy install. Caution, It will take over your system sound if you install the HDMI sound driver, so uncheck the sound driver box on custom install, and disable it in the device manager. Also, ATI udated Catalyst driver 9.8 will not recognize the card. You must install Catalysit Hot fix for Radeon 4000 series cards. Otherwise the HSI indcluded driver will run very slowly.

    After any driver install the computer runs extremely slowly and hangs. Force a hard reboot and it will load properly after that.

    In summary, nice card, it works very well for the more challenging on-line games, but you must know what you are doing to get it to work and update drivers.

    14 Nov. Update to my initial review.

    I ended up returning this card. Never worked properly, and yes, at least on my system, it screwed up the existing sound to the point I had to reinstall and uninstall and disable the included sound.

    There are better options out there. Do not buy this card.
