This card is one of the easiest instlling cards I have ever worked with. It took me 5 minutes and I was up and running. It came with reasonably up-to-date drivers but I still downloaded the newest driverswhich turned out to be a big plus. Nvidia has now built overclocking right into the driver.
I was able to OC my card to 1.5 of its default speed. this boost alone gave me an extra 200 points in 3DMark 03 benchmarking program. Well worth the time to download.DirectX 3D support is excellent. Running "FarCry" (game) on this card is breathtaking. In full detail mode with anti-aliasing at 1024x768 runs at about 50-60 fps. At 1280x1024 performance drops to around 30fps still very respectable.
Package comes with little software but what is there is top quality. DVD playback through the card is superb. Have not tried the TV out option yet.
