This review is from: VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 4670 1 GB DDR3 PCI Express Graphics Card 900251 (Personal Computers) I originally wanted the new 5670 that can run DX 11, however after sending away for several 5670 cards I learned by trial and error that the 5670 is a 2.1 pci express card and will not run on the older pci-express 1.0 slots. This isn't mentioned on ANY of the cards I purhcased online and I did extensive homework on my motherboard and bios BEFORE I sent away for them.
Thankfully the 4670 is a 2.0 pci-express card and it DOES work with pci-express 1.0 slots. The card has BIG fan, which it SHOULD mention on the packaging but doesn't. It IS a two slot card because of the fan. Thankfully I had a slot available and appreciate the size of the fan as it less noisy and more effective at cooling than a smaller fan.

This review is from: VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 4670 1 GB DDR3 PCI Express Graphics Card 900251 (Personal Computers) Bought the card to enable Aero Effects in Windows 7. Went in easily, the fan on it is actually much more quiet than the card I had before. A few months later I am still very happy with it. I'm a multi-tasker, heavy user, but not a gamer. For the money it was a good upgrade, easy, I didn't even have to update the driver, it updated with a Windows Automatic Update. I know it's considered an older card, but I'm happy with it. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

Had to up grade my power supply though and that was not fun. |
