BFG BFGE84512GS64E NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS 512MB DDR2 PCI Express 2.0 Graphics Card

Comment: I'll say that this video card is relatively good at playing video and for general purpose tasks, but it's definitely not a great gaming card. Of the nVidia brand, I would say spend the extra money on an 8800 or 9xxx card instead. They shouldn't be a whole lot more, but will allow for higher settings within games and/or higher frames per second, making it look a lot less choppy. Overall, it feels underpowered, and BARELY meets minimum specifications with newer games within the past couple of years, and some are just completely unplayable due to a lot of areas running at 12-20 fps on the lowest settings and low screen size. For an SLi setup, it would still be recommended to just buy a different, single card of similar value.

If you're willing to try it, you can also look for a program called nTune by nVidia to overclock the GPU a little bit, but don't put the settings too high, and it may cause problems while gaming.

Also, without SLi, this card does NOT support PhysX. If you install it, PhysX in games will always or almost always be disabled.

Comment: very cheap mod to any computer.. only downside was a problem with monitor positioning on a dual monitor layout. definitely not for heavy graphics

Comment: I bought this card because I wanted to run videos from my PC to my HD Plasma television. The video is awesome,and it didn't take a lot of time to set up.
