Purchased it in 2006 and up till now it still played everything...

- Batman Arkham Asylum
- Champions Online
- Spiderman Web of Shadows
- X-Men Origins Wolverine
- Left 4 Dead 2
etc.
(In fact my new card barely improved those games, mostly just the anti-aliasing, although your processor and RAM may have a lot to do with that).

The only reason I decided to upgrade is that I could not really play some games that I really wanted to jump into and that I paid good money for on steam:

Empire: Total War (very slow)
Grand Theft Auto 4 (very poor drawing)
And soon... Mafia 2 (have not bought it yet).

So I bought a new 1 gig directX 11 card and I'm donating the old one to a community member, because I really like you guys and you all are even bigger budget gamers than I am. So I would like to mail it to somebody close by (US if possible) and who really needs the card and thinks it will work with the board they have. I dont want you to use it as a paper weight, a crossfire rig or something for the pawn shop. If you can improve your gaming with it, it is yours.

Here is the product... it is an ancient beast but a powerful one. Paid good money for it back in the day.

Also... I MIGHT be giving out some 1gig ddr2 ram sticks too, but dont quote me on that.

If no one else out there needs it I would gladly take that card. I've been reduced to using my built in video card since my old GeForce card walked toward the light.

City of Heroes hasn't looked the same since. :(

Send me a PM with an address... my hours are weird so it will probably take me a week to get it sent out but it will be there soon.
