so I purchase this card since it have the most muscle for the older style agp . mind you , I be quite computer friendly , and build they myself . this card be a pain since the driver take 4 download to work . the card then last about 2 month before crap out . I take my old Nvidia card . put it back in the computer , and 5 min later have it back up and run . its be month now with no issue . I have hear similar story about ATI 's card in recent year . in fact , my last ATI card be always finicky . I would not recommend ATI graphic card if you be look for stability .
