Good dual-head card for older machines + linux Jan 26, 2009
By Neil Buranakanchana

I've got an old machine running AMD athelon on a VIA board. Think circa 2001. My concerns were that it worked with my old hardware and that it was linux (ubuntu) friendly. I am just too old to spend hours on a dual monitor setup.
Upon card installation, my monitor lit right up with bois dumps. After that it switched over to the onboard for the logon screen. Good so far. After re-running xorg auto config and restarting X, one of my monitors on the new card came right up. You then have to manually add the 2nd monitor, but thats easy. Buttom line is that the ati driver existed and worked.
The other thing to watch out for is the type of card. Older machines will only support a vanilla PCI and sometimes AGP. Be careful not to get a PCI Express if your motherboard doesnt support it.
I did not test on windows, but I'm assuming its pretty plug and play.
The only negative thing I'll say is that it didnt come with a DVI to VGA converter. Old monitors, like CRT's, will only support VGA. Luckily I had an extra lying around, but I'm guessing most will not.
Great for the money! May 10, 2011

I was able to adapt my old Dell Dimension 4400 computer to running dual monitors: one for the desk and one for the flat panel above my treadmill so I can watch streaming movies while I work out. It has just enough resolution to run both monitors in native resolution which makes them very nice to use, whether for movie watching or productivity. This was one of my great computer stuff buys!
Good for older Pcs Apr 20, 2011

This card works well on older pcs that only have PCI slots on the motherboard. It has been working well without problems on my Windows XP Media Center Edition pc. It can play older games, such as Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 and 2. Unfortunately games that are graphic hogs will not work with this graphics card. Otherwise the Card works very well

Usually when you buy a cheap peripheral video card you expect only exceed a little bit the resolution of the onboard video graphics, but in my opinion, this video card is more reliable than the expensive ones.
play video games requires more power, more advanced software. but it cost You.
