Long version:
-------------------
I made this card for a HTPC (Home Theater PC, WohnzimmerPC) bought its onboard graphics unfortunately died.
Since I use a tiny tight housing in which the air circulation is not overly plump naturally, I decided for a model with an active fan. This is very low, also look at the video.
The map does not idling at about 60-65 ° C, which is now not really little (partly certainly the bad housing ventilation owed), but considering approved up to 100 ° C questionable. Underload I max. 70 ° C measured. The fan was not to hear each case and the PC is really quiet.
So this card is well suited for a WohnzimmerPC.
Under Linux NVIDIA drivers running smoothly and provides means VDPAU the ability to offload the calculations for video playback. The map has plenty of power to perform even decent deinterlacing even with FullHD. In that regard, highly recommended.
For gamers, however, the card is completely uninteresting.
* Browser Games a la Morhuhn or Google Earth run with any currently available graphics card, since this one is no improvement.
* For 3D Games this card thanks to the weak graphics chips and the bund is only end with 64bit memory is much too slow. In order to play on Full HD monitors in 1920x1080 you need to invest at least 100 or search the Gebrauchtmakt. At most, very old games on small screens with low resolution, this model will create here.
Since the card is not intended for this purpose also I rate this is not negative, I mention it only for information.
Overall I am very pleased with the card for my purpose and give it 5 stars.
