PNY GeForce 9500 GT VCG951024GXEB Video Card

Comment:
This card was working perfect for a few months. Now the fan is starting to make lovely grinding sounds and is constantly wobbling and refusing to start spinning without me opening the case and flicking the fan with a pencil. And to top it all off, PNY refused my warranty.

I have been a constant buyer of PNY VGCs for a while now. I never had any reason to trade up. Even though this is not a high-end VGC, it fitted well for budget and what features it provides. And to support it of course, is a MB, memory, and PSU that can work with it.

Bought this card for my system and everything went smooth as silk it plays Mass Effect 2 without a hick-up. I have windows 7 and the driver problem that I heard about went perfect. I buy PNY again

this is the best video card for the price. It does all that is designed to do and more. I'm very pleased with it!

I purchased this video card because my last one went bad. When I installed this one, I was hoping that it would be an improvement from my first video card when I bought it new. But it was about the same. I purchased a geforce 8400gt before this so this would be an upgrade. It performed about the same. The card works just as it should have but I was hoping for an improvement from my first card.

I have both, and win 7 clocks them nearly the same.

I bought a pair of these for an inexpensive SLI setup. I don't really need SLI for the games I play, though. One of the fans makes a whirring sound at startup for about 20 seconds but then goes away, which is why I only gave 4 stars for quality. Instructions were quite sparse and there was no indication on where the Serial Number was so I called the PNY support line for that. These came with a little 2-pin cable. I can see where to plug it into the card but have no idea what it's for (no instructions) so I didn't bother messing with it. Maybe I'll call and ask, one of these days. I haven't had these a month yet but they seem to be pretty good cards so far.

Got this for my son's PC to enhance his games since the integrated graphics were so lacking. Install in about 10 minutes after I upgrades the powersupply. Probably took 30 minutes total. Works awesome. Going to get another for my other PC now.

Comment:
Installed in a windows 7, dual monitor, application. Easy to install and super fast. An outstanding value.

Comment:
great product overall but the first one i got was a bad duck. it would grind on startup for about 15 seconds and then quiet down. i read another review about that same issue. I returned it for the exact same and it works great. great budget card.

Comment:
Works great with my two monitors. Installed without problems into my DELL with PCIe 1.0 system. Improved system performance - very satisfied.

Comment:
Product is OK But the detailed features show a HDTV, S-Video connector output (not on this model) Make sure you read product specs.

I order this Wednesday and got it Monday,Was happy with it run's all my games at high settings i will definitively order from you guys again!

I bought two of these for an SLI system I was building. One worked fine and the other was defective. I tried to get a replacement from PNY and they don't respond to my RMA request; their website is a dead-end. By the time I built the system and discovered one was defective I'd exceeded my 30 day return window with TigerDirect. Wishing I'd bought another brand--I will never buy from PNY again.

Bought this to replace my GeForce 8500. Great card for great price. Games are much more intense and my movies are so much clearer. I would reccomend this card to anyone. By the way I ordered this card on Dec 19 and it delivered on Dec 22. Way to go TD.

Worked right out of the box. Drivers easy to install with Vista Home Premium. Works well with min. 350 watt power supply. Windows Index rating jumped from 3.8 to 4.9 and 4.1 and 5.3 for graphics apps.

I bought this card a couple of weeks ago. It was to replace my onboard graphics. My motherboard recognized the card right away when I installed it, so it disabled my onboard graphics. There was one problem though. When I tried installing the drivers off the disk they included, it didn't recognize the card inside, so I had to get the drivers off of nVidia's website. Overall great product, would buy another in the future.

Comment:
I've had this card for about two months and it just kinda died. Great price but not in the long run

Comment:
Does just what it's supposed to do at a great price.

Comment:
Just what you want. Plug it in, install the CD and the thing works. PS unplug your computer before installing!

I received this vid card about a month ago. Not only is it light years beyond my GeForce 8600gt, it was cheaper. I have yet to get a crap deal from PNY and this is no exception. Performs better than dual 8600's in SLI. Got way more than I paid for imho.

Comment:
I just got this video card a few days ago, and it came with a bad driver. The driver did not even recognize that the card was in the computer. I called tech support, and they had me download an older driver, which worked fine.

PNY GeForce 9500 GT Video Card - 1GB GDDR2, PCI Express 2.0, Dual DVI, SLI Ready, HDTV this did take me some tine to get this to work on my PC BUT THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO CARD FOR THE PRICE.

I have used a number of different NVIDIA cards over the years from different brands. This has been the best value so far. No troubles with this card, worked first time on my new Vista 64bit machine. To get HDTV with audio requires an SPDIF connection to the motherboard. My board nicely made that connection unavailable. So if you require HDMI with audio, just double check your motherboard. Excellent card overall, buy it.
