MSI GeForce GT 710 DirectX 12 GT 710 1GD3H LP 1GB 64-Bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Video Card

Pros: Very simple graphics card - no PCIe power needed, no fan to make noise. Not for the gamer but instead for things like an HTPC, which is why I purchased it. The price is right for basic graphics needs.

Cons: None at all.

Overall Review: I downloaded the latest driver from nVidia, installed, and was up and running in no time. I used the included low profile slot adapters to install the card into an HP 8300 SFF computer. This computer will be used as an HTPC (Home Theater PC). The card includes HDMI, VGA, and DVI-D connectors allowing any monitor you have to work with it. Under load (streaming video from Internet or my home server) the card never gets above 95 degrees F. The built-in video in the HP 8300 computer actually has 'slightly' better performance. However, since the computer only has an available VGA and DisplayPort connector I needed to install this card. My TV only supports HDMI (VGA too, but yuck, pushing 1920x1080 with VGA yields a bit of noise in the signal since VGA's max resolution supported is 1920x1200). Digital is the only way to go with HD resolutions or higher. Oh, one other thing, when you install nVidia drivers make sure to un-select everything except the drivers themselves. Even then a 'Telemetry' and 'Container' service will be installed by default. Simply use MSCONFIG to disable these two services. There will be no impact on the performance of the card. These are cr@p-ware services included by default with the drivers. Not needed at all.

Pros: I used this video card to update a server so I can watch You tube videos, and do labs for school. If anybody want to use this video card in an Intel Server Board S1200BTL. It does work perfectly.

Cons: N/a

Pros: Easy install, Easy Update

Cons: Blank screen on power up sometimes.

Overall Review: I'm not a gamer. I bought this because I have an old Dell Inspiron 531-S with a Win10 upgrade that needed something better than the onboard graphics unit which staggered along playing any type of video. I installed it with the stock 250 watt power supply that came with the 531 PC (because the upgraded one I bought was DOA and I figured lets see how it works.) And it does. I can watch TV shows, watch and edit my recorded videos etc., etc. Prior to the upgrade the onboard graphics adapter had all it could do to keep up with any streaming. Matter of fact, that fancy windows saver with all the spirals couldn't even run smoothly. Some hints about installing...It comes with the MSI install CD. It has a lot of add on things I just don't need, so I opted to install the drivers directly from Nvidia. There is an option in their setup that allows you to do a clean install. Use it. Prior to installing the drivers, I booted the PC into BIOS setup mode and changed the advanced settings for graphics to use the PCI-E slot for initial graphics boot-it saves some time when you boot your PC. The PC will boot in native resolution and after the drivers are installed, all looks normal again. BTW, this GPU supports DirectX 12, a real benefit. My PC exhibited some initial power on issues where the monitor power indicator wouldn't come out of the amber mode, so no video displayed. Powering cycling the PC fixed that. Not sure if it was a driver issue or not, but Nvidia had a new driver and I installed it, still waiting to see if it fails again. If it's not that, well, maybe a new PSU is in order. By the way, that cheap 300W supply you see from Marketplace Outlet for less than 25 might not be in your best interest... Another BTW...go to techpowerup.com and get their video card analyzer. It's free and will tell you everything and more about your video card and how it's running. Its called GPU-Z And another Freebie, look for Speccy from CCleaner. It's free and will tell you everything you need to know about you PC, including all those missing Microsoft Keys for your software. Pretty neat!

Pros: -Ideal replacement card for business applications. -Fits in SFF PCs, such as the Dell Optiplex. -Includes connectors for most business monitors: HDMI, DVI, and VGA. -NO FAN to croak or start making noise.

Cons: -Standoffs- Seem to be shallow? -Included DVD wouldn't run with Windows 7.

Overall Review: Used this card to replace a failing graphics card in a Dell Optiplex computer running Windows 7 Pro. It came with the necessary hardware to convert the card to work with the small form factor of that computer. Others here have complained that the card doesn't have very good performance... well DUH! Nobody should be buying this card because it will give you the maximum frame rates for your preferred 3rd person shooter game. As a replacement card for business applications it is more than adequate. Once I installed, Windows recognized and fetched the correct drivers from Windows update.

Pros: Works on PCIe 1.1 without issue VGA/D-Sub and HDMI No Noise, No External Power

Cons: DVI is digital only

Overall Review: For the price this gets you modern decoding and resolution capatibilities on older Intel 9 series chipset computers. Replaced an ancient Quadro FX3500 (7900GT) with only 256Mb RAM. Not only does this offer better overall performance (although that isn't saying much), it's silent, and the video decode capabilities have eliminated the stuttering I would sometimes experience playing back FHD or higher resolution video content.

Pros: Works fine as I don't need a super fast gaming card. Replaced an ancient Geforce 7300.

Cons: None noted.

Overall Review: I used this in a Hackintosh build. Had to modify 3 kexts but it works fine and gets 29.47 fps at 1920x1080 using Cinebench. Not awful for a $35 board.

Pros: Did exactly what I expected it to do. Very nice, inexpensive card if you have an old PC laying around that you want to re purpose for video playback & streaming.

Cons: Go for the 2GB if you can.

Overall Review: Paired it with a Sempron145 running Linux Mint just for DVD, Netflix and YouTube. Works fine. The Sempron by itself couldn't handle any video whatsoever. This card fixed my issues. Wish I got the 2Gb card, tho.

Pros: Easy install, setup and use. fits great in my case for an older motherboard to upgrade video and use Dual monitors. Very good for video, however have not tested for high end use or HD. Drivers automatically installed and updated through windows 10. no fan to make noise Video is good full screen

Cons: probably not what you want for even low end gaming

Overall Review: Have not installed included software or drivers to know if they are good or not I do not game, but it does produce nice video for home/office use.
