I get the Sparkle GEForce card as a part of a upgrade to my nearly 8 year old 2.5 Ghz p4 Compaq Presario S6000V tower system to Windows 7 pro in addition to a  Western Digital 320 GB WD Blue PATA 7200 RPM 8 MB Cache Bulk\/OEM Desktop Hard drive  installation be relatively easy other than the issue of the heatsink which prove manageable . once install I go into the bio setting to set the Card as the default graphic card . I then proceed to set up window & and install the latest version of the nvidium geforce driver on it . in my opinion the probable reason I hhave ad few if any problem with the card be due to my install it in a clean slate software environment . so far the its be a year and a half since I do the graphic upgrade which have prove to be fairly capable for the main use I have put it to -lrb- File server , print server , media storage , plus occasional netflix movie system . currently it be link to dual monitor setup use 23 '' Samsung SyncMaster 2343 at its full native resolution -lrb- 2048x1152 -rrb- and old Dell 15 '' -lrb- 1024x800 -rrb- . I have so far have very few problem or issue with the video card other than 2-3 driver crash . give the age of the system I have not be incline to push it to the limit on graphic but I have be able to play some fairly highdef video with few if any problem . the experience index for the system as currently configure be a 3.3 which if I upgrade to faster p4 CPU would come up a bit . the overall score of my system as currently configure be below .
