Not an AGP Video Card
Amazon says this card is an AGP video card, which it definitely is not. It is a PCI Express card, which is really frustrating considering the week I spent waiting for this for it to turn out to be the wrong card and I've needed a new AGP video card for 2 weeks now.

Fan assembly melted.. beware
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great performance for the price.
Cons: Dell small form factor computer users beware! This card died after 2 months due to heat melting one of the posts that hold the fan in place.

Cooling fan is junk
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: The performance was wonderful when I first installed it in my machine. Best frame rates I have seen on this machine.
BFG has pretty good customer service. 24/7 - 365
Cons: After less than a month, the cooling fan started grinding and eventually stopped. Called up BFG, they sent a new one in about 3 days. I've had the new one for about 3 weeks and it's also starting ...

Works as it should
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Replaced onboard riser card for a client with this to power a 50" plasma located at the end of a 20m DVI->HDMI cable from another online retailer. Low profile worked great for our app on a HP DC7800S, allowing local display over the VGA.
Cons: Fan is a little loud, but this is sitting in a server room, so no one will have to listen to it.

Don't buy unless you have amazing cooling
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: When you first pop it in your computer it runs smooth as butter, i was really impressed by it.
Ran wow at 20 in dal and 40-60 everywhere else.
Cons: After about a month it started making weird fan noises... like it was grinding.
i tryed to take the fan off but it didn't look like there was a way without breaking it, so i just left it.
after about another month the fa...

Good except for 1 big problem

Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Nice low-profile, fast card. Looks great with 1080(i) HD TV Out. Nice that it comes with Component HD adapter. But...
Cons: The thin plastic fan mount has melted and warped from the heat kicked out by the GPU. This caused the fan to droop and lean against the housing, stopping it from turning. I flipped the housing over and got i...

Great buy
I bought this for a slim desktop which, unfortunately, can only use certain cards. This one came with the wider bracket shown already attached, but includes two slim brackets--you need to use both and use two slots in the computer. In my case it eliminates using a 3x PCI slot, but I wasn't using it anyway. The instructions are good for installing the card and getting it up and running, but there are no instructions for changing the bracket, but it is pretty straight-forward.
The c...

Great card for the price
This is a great card for the price. Fairly easy to install- the directions could have been better for removal of old card, otherwise, it was up and running in 30 min. It's a quiet card, and I've been able to run MS Flight Sim X at High settings with no drag. Ultra High gives some jumpiness, but I think that's more a memory issue than the card. All-in-all, I'm happy with the buy.
