Summary: Great card, but runs pretty hot
Comment: This card offered a massive performance boost when browsing graphic-intensive websites and offered an enormous performance boost for games over integration. Framerates in Halo jumped from 10-15FPS to 60-70 FPS and textures actually display properly. Framerate in Mabinogi also sees a massive boost from 5-10FPS to about 40-55FPS, which means that I can now play Mabinogi on my old system. Awesome little card for the PCI bus, but the only downside i that the card reaches up to 75C after 30-40 minutes under load, which is pretty ridiculous. I would suggest buying an aftermarket heatsink for it, as the stock cooling solution has a heatsink without a fan, which is what leads to the ridiculous temperatures.

Summary: Purchase of the EVGA 256 PCI bus
Comment: This product was easy to install. I needed a new PCI card for my old Dell in order to be able to play SPORES. Well, this did the trick. I did not have any problems whatsoever installing the card. It works great with my 22' LCD monitor.

Summary: Solid Replacement for PCI or onboard video
Comment: I replaced a pci video card that was too noisy w/ fan whine. This one has a heat sink that effectively deals w/ both heat and noise.
My son, who plays some video games, says this one is a little quicker and brighter, certainly much better than the onboard video on this four year old Dell Dimension 3000. It's not a card for hard core gaming, just those that need the pixel shading.
It does refresh web windows more quickly, and it makes the computer faster as well since it has its own memory.
Installation was very easy, but I was replacing an e-GeForce card w/ this e-GeForce card. The software installs easily also and allows for adjustments on several levels. I learned from the first installation that onboard video needs to be disabled before installing this card.
Excellent replacement for those who have only pci; it also comes with digital video cable to connect with lcd replacement displays.

Summary: EVGA 256-P1-N399-LX e-GeForce 6200 256MB DDR PCI Graphics
Comment: Loved this card, my old celeron pc was only able to run doom3 on lowest settings and it still looked like a slide show, after installing this card i was able to run doom3 and half life 2 on high settings and still run smooth.My web browsing has also improved and video playback looks great.You can adjust the color,brightness position and other cool stuff. Also this is the best card for the pci type bus, this is only true if you have 1Gb ram because it steals some from you pc, has 128mb onboard memory and takes the other 128mb from you pc, I also heard that the 128mb version of the 6200 was just as good if you dont want to buy some more ram, all in all this gpu is a great deal, Get it! you wont regret it, Promise!

Summary: Card to run Spores
Comment: Added to a not-so-old PC with XP in order to be able to run Spores.
Instant success. Very cost effective and straight forward.
Only tricky part was to reset the display to go to the card instead of to the on-board video.
