4.0 out of 5 stars For a budget card you really can't go wrong with this one, July 31, 2010

This review is from: EVGA GeForce GT 220 1024 MB GDDR3 DVI/HDMI/VGA PCI Express Graphics Card, 01G-P3-1226-LR (Personal Computers)
I recently purchased the GT 220 to replace an old 8800 GT that had finally died on me after being used in two seprate computers. I decided to stick with EVGA/nVidia since my old card lasted a long time and did not disappoint. So far so good on this one. First off it was an upgrade over my old 8800 GT. This computer ran WoW, Alpha Protocol and Oblivion fine on the old card. However the old card couldn't really max them out. On the GT 220 all three games either look much better or run much smoother now. One minor issue some folks may have is that this card only has one DVI connector in addition to an old VGA connector. This seemed like an odd design choice to me as most newer monitors run on DVI now. VGA to DVI adapters are also easy to get and fairly cheap if you really need one. As a result of having only one connector it's possible that this card is unable to run a duel monitor setup. I only use one monitor myself so I have no way to test this. However it's something to keep in mind... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Graphics Card for the price!!!, June 14, 2010

I bought this card to use in my first time build. I have to say, that I am very satisfied with it. I have previously owned the EVGA NVIDIA GeForce 9400GT. I only buy NVIDIA graphics cards from EVGA. I have had no problems. It even comes with a two year warranty, if you register online.

This card has DDR3 memory, and and HDMI port. It rates 6.5 WEI in Windows 7 Pro. 64-bit.

I am not a hard-core gamer. I just play Star Trek Online and Age of Empires III. It can play both those games on maximum settings. I am very happy. I would definitely recommend this card to anyone on a budget.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad if you just want to play a game, November 26, 2010

Compared to other cards this month the GT 220 is actually not the best in the litter. The Nvidia 240GT DDR5 card offers a considerable advantage over this card, and it is around the same price range. I mean your talking 50+ GB/s compared to this cards 22.5 GB/s tops. On top of that the Stream Processors are double that of this card at 96.

However if you really don't mind spending around $80 regardless of a rebate I would direct you to spend your hard earned cash on an ATI 5670, as it can operate on a 300W power supply and others much bang for your buck. It has 4 times the Stream processors at around 200, and is hella fast.

The GT 220 DDR3 1 GB seems to still perform okay, but it isn't a great card if you like to game hardcore. The FPS with this card on high resolution in a game like Crysis is seriously lacking, and I mean around 10 to 15 FPS if I recall right according to one test I read online. Don't plan on running your favorite games on the... Read more
