I have a 8 year old Pentium 4 , -lrb- 2.4 ghz , 2 gb of Ram -rrb- and this be my final upgrade before be force to buy something new . the card work well and I can play more modern game -lrb- like Fallout 3 -rrb- on low setting , and the old game that I have like C&C; general at high setting , but one weird issue I find be that REALLY old game that be lock at a low resolution -lrb- like Starcraft 1 , or c&c; 1 -rrb- there be some random graphic tear that do not occur on more modern game -lrb- or one set at 800x 600 -rrb- . I have the most current driver and try every connection -lrb- VGA , DVI and HDMI -rrb- and they all do the same thing , so I be deduct a star , but figure most people would be buy this to play more recent game and it should not be a issue .
