SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5450 100292DDR3L Video Card

Ran quiet. Somewhat low cost, in particular compared to other video cards. Crashed my technique. Entirely. Not positive what it was, but installing this card gave me the blue screen of death (Windows 7 64bit). Could not figure out why, till I removed the card. No problems due to the fact. Turns out the the card was oddly shaped and put a weird flex on my MB. Putting that quantity of pressure on the hardware brought on numerous process failures. Removing it triggered almost everything to return to usual instantly. Possibly it will operate for you. It didn't for me. And I'm not pleased about it.

Low energy consumptionNo fan = much less noiseLow power consumption = less heat 64bit - not in a position to create FPS essential for smooth gaming at HD good quality. This was purchased for my wife's slimline Computer so I'm very good with it, but I tried to test GRID, even on half settings, was like driving with headlights set to a quick strobe as an alternative of a virtual environment.GA-MA78GPM-DS2H AM2+/AM2 AMDAMD Athlon X2 4850e 2.5GHz Socket AM2 45W Dual-Core ProcessorThermaltake CL-P0257 Blue orb II CPU CoolerCORSAIR XMS2 4GB ƒ x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual ChannelBlue Ray Drive BR-04B2T7200 rpm 320gb Laptop HDSlim case - N82E16811280020Microsoft Windows 7

Its quiet! I upgraded fom an HIS 4540 with a genuinely noisy fan that changed pitch when the processors worked on one thing new. This remedy operates genuinely nicely - and never ever overheats None

Directx 11 support, smallish, not to loud, runs every thing incredibly rapid. Hot (mine stays at around 55c though mainly because of my water cooler and heat-pipe). Not the newest card. It's a excellent card for gaming but you need the complete rig. If you just want to do some operate and possibly do some scattered high video card associated (?) functions you need to stick with a less expensive card that just assists you run. Whatever you do though, do not be fine with built-in cards.

Nice and straightforward dual monitor setup, easy install, includes smaller from brackets which is a plus for those of us with slim circumstances. Isn't the fastest card, but fine for the price. I just got the card these days and installed it. It works wonderful with my Dell Inspiron 580s and I picked this card simply because it's 1 of the couple of that will run with my 250w PSU and slim case. I plugged one particular monitor into the DVI and 1 into the VGA. Works fantastic, even though not the fastest card by any implies, but a great worth card. Very recommended, unless you are a severe gamer. I play Halo, some CoD, and a couple of other older games, so it works for me, but you certainly won't be maxing out Crysis.

-Very good graphics-Budget Value-DirectX 11-Low power-Low profile-No fan -only บ-15 less expensive than Nvidia GT220, which gets like twice the framerate of this card when gaming, according to several reviews (that I wish I'd read prior to I bought this) I bought this to play Starcraft two on a Core i3-530 method I was creating. The advised settings for Starcraft 2 say I really should run it on low everything at 1280x760, but my LCD monitor is 1920x1200 and so I run SC2 at 1920x1200 with no complications or slowdown at all. I even moved up a handful of of the settings and it nonetheless runs fine for the Campaign missions. I haven't tried multiplayer but. I'm pleased with this item, in spite of some initial worries.

Modest die size/low energy consumption. Functions well in Win7-64 bit. None of the freeze ups or blue screens other people have reported. Other people might have had insufficent airflow over the heatsink. Win7 knowledge went from three.7 with HD4350 card to four.6 with this card. Used latest drivers from Sapphire net web site. Win7-64, PhII 920, MSI 785GTM-E45, 2x2gig Corsair PC6400. 64 bit card memory but you can't have almost everything at this price tag.

Straightforward to Overclock (ignore the other reviewer, you can overclock it by means of the Catalyst Center), very good bang for your buck. Runs hot, I've had it hit 80 C even though my space gets really hot. My case has decent airflow and plenty of fans and it nonetheless runs hot. For my budget gaming rig this is a best card, my space is only hot 3-4 months of the year so I can deal with it. If you want to cool it down just often alt+tab out of your game or take breaks, it cools down rapidly.

The card does really nicely... I have had superior luck with all ATI Chipset cards I would have given it a 5 eggs, however I have bought three video cards with rebates, and have by no means recieved a dime... I wish they would just settle on a cost and just forget the rebate... The only one coming out on this is 4myrebate.com...

Low power consumptionNo fan = much less noiseLow power consumption = much less heat no fan = has possible to overheatGT 220 beats this card on benchmarks @ Phil, mannn... do your study ahead of buying pc stuff... even the high-end ATI Radeon HD 5870 or 5970 cards that are worth 軸-1000+ needs you to either buy an active adapter or a monitor that has a native display port in able to do Eyefinity setup. Your such a n00b.. tsk tskAnyway... its either this for me or Nvidia GT 220... the GT 220 is pretty much the same cost range as this and beats this card in benchmarks...but.... I like ATI's low power consumption therefore lower heat generation method... so could end up finding this after all...

Included low profile brackets. Card fits effortlessly into micro ATX case. Card does not have a giant, obnoxious heatsink. HDMI port basically would not operate. Googled the issue and located several other folks operating Windows 7 also had this concern. Supposedly the HDMI port worked fine for them on XP/Vista. I purchased this card because of the HDMI port, so this was absolutely unacceptable. Newegg consumer server came via with the RMA, as usual. Props to them. :)

Low profile, great HTPC card, fanless, really cool, decent performance. N/A Haven't tried for intense gaming, but it is a really good card for a HTPC setup.

Comment:
None Definitely...I expected some efficiency improvement over my 2+ year old card with only 512 mb, but to my surprise, my efficiency index went from 6.five to four.7. Poor graphic performance, even with Flight Simulator x, a five+ year old program. Jerky scenery, slow to load. Put your income toward a Radeon HD 5750.

Passive cooling keeps the HTPC quiet. The Heat Sink is just small adequate to install subsequent to another card. It has HDMI output that lets me use my significant screen Tv at 1080p, which provides it much better resolution than utilizing the VGA input. Now I can comfortably browse the net on the Television. No observed issues with heat (it sits suitable subsequent to a vent in my XPC SD36G5 micro box). It has 1GB dedicated memory. Comes with low profile brackets. Substantially much better efficiency than the on board video, particularly for 1080p video files. I haven't tried it with a blue ray disk. Very content with the shell shocker cost. This is a good bargain video card, but I wouldn't expect it to set records for demanding game play. I'd been looking for a cost successful upgrade for the on board graphics with an HDMI output for my Household Theater PC, and am very pleased with this so far (about 1 month of use)

Affordable This video card crashes on Windows 7 64bit. I originally thought that the card was bad so I got it replaced and the new one does the similar thing. I installed an Nvidia video card and no more crashes I can not advise this card to anybody.

Worked as expected when it was functioning correctly. Installed with i7 program and worked fine for a week. It began crashing and then recovering the driver. Changed settings to windows fundamental, changed drivers, and nonetheless did the same. Installed in 3 various intel systems to check (two i7 and 1 E8500) and still did the identical. Going to RMA Going to RMA and try once again.

- Fundamental video card, primarily bought for dual monitor output.- Passive cooling, no noise.- HDMI output if you want to get crazy.- Low profile w/ bracket included. I can't feel of any. I installed this in a Dell Vostro 230 ST following the original video card that came with the system was malfunctioning. Rather than waste time with Dell support, I picked this card up.

quiet - no fan no quite rapidly, but rapidly enough for me considering that I'm not a gamer has D-sub, HDMI and DVI-I outputs (but you and only use two at a time)

Fanless, card couldn't get any shorter...the heat sink gets a bit hot, but its way cooler overall than other cards I have had.Comes with low profile brackets.Great price for an amazing card for general silent viewing pleasure. (I'm not a gamer) none On Ubuntu Maverick I noticed tearing until I went with "xorg crack pushers ppa"...

No fanLow power consumptionFantastic for non die-hard gamersSuperb for a silent pc setup Windows 7 WEI graphics score 5.Windows 7 WEI gaming graphics score 6.2(actually, not poor for a low budget card) I'm not a gamer, so this graphics card was ideal for my silent computer system construct. Windows 7 had no issues with the card. Following installing the operating system, I downloaded the latest ATI drivers from the Sapphire internet site with no issues.The power consumption is incredibly low ླ Watts) which equates to less heat generation. Excellent!
