3.0 out of 5 stars Good for Video - Not for Gaming, October 6, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: EVGA GeForce GT 520 1024 MB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 2DVI/Mini-HDMI Graphics Card, 01G-P3-1526-KR (Personal Computers)
Bought this card on a tight budget to replace a 9800 GT that started getting graphical glitches, was expecting it to run at least similar in performance but I was wrong by a long shot. While this card supports DirectX 11 and claims to take gaming to the next level, it falls short. Running it in a Quad Core system with 8GB DDR3 with more than adequate PSU and the card struggles to run games such as The Witcher 2, The Hunter, Dungeons The Dark Lord even at lower resolutions. I tried everything from 1024x768 up to 1600x1200 on a standard CRT monitor to running it on my 40" wide screen LED TV @ 1920x1080. This card just isn't meant for any serious gaming. That's not to say it does not run any games, it does run Sims Medieval and Portal 2 fairly well. This was a major step down from my old BFG 9800 GT OC 512MB card, the only gain I made here at all was DX11 support. I think this card falls behind somewhat considering it relies on getting all its' juice from the PCI-E slot instead of having... Read more

Got this so I could connect 2 monitors to my computer. Many of the fancier cards require a large amount of power.
This one works fine with a 300W power supply.

This is not a card for hard core gamers, but if you want to have dual monitors it works quite well. Installation took about 5 minutes,
4 of which were getting the computer open.

Good PCI-E video card for its price. I got 4.6 score on Windows 7 Windows Experience Index. I bought the cheap card so I can watch my Blu-Ray movies on a multi-boot OS (XP & 7) on dual LCD monitors. Video quality is excellent. Just make sure to update to the latest nVidia drivers.
