    The bottom line: If you're looking to build a home theater PC, we recommend ATI's Radeon HD 2600 XT as the midrange card to use, thanks to its nearly perfect HD video image and its no-fuss installation. But for 3D gaming, you'd be much better off looking for a good deal on a faster, older graphics card. Read more

    Work great on Vista 32. Lot of bugs on Vista 64. I work in QA lab, so I used to setup clean test machine. This card works no problem at all in XP Pro 32 and Vista 32. On Vista 64, you dont have to do anything, just idle for 6 hours, this video card stop responding and make the whole machine hang. Although the manufacturer just release a new driver version 8.2, the problem still there. It is not easy to find a stable video card for Vista 64 machine since it is not... Read more
