Good Card for the Money

Strengths: small size card for a small form factor tower, large heat sink eliminates the need for a fan (no problems with heat yet), very cheap, decent performance

Weakness: None yet

Can't beat the card for how cheap it is. I bought this card just so I could get my 5.5 year old computer running again. I don't do any gaming, so the performance has been good enough for me.

Best Video Card for this Price Point for HTPC.

Strengths: Dual Video Out. AGP, Composite Video out. DIV and VGA. What else... No Fan

Weakness: None.

This is by far the best card for this price point. Its AGP so I don't have to use my PCI card. Its fanless so completely silent. Its got dual video Out (DVI, VGA and Composite Video Out). This appears to be very suitable for older Mobo that has AGP slot. I am using it for my HTPC and so far I am very satisfied. Nvidia makes the best video card IMHO in the market. Not that its not for gamers.
