This is great for an old AGP system. I use an NForce 2 platform (Athlon XP 3200 with 3 GB Dual Channel RAM). Prior to this video card I was using a GeForce 7950GT with 512 MB. After doing lots of homework and reading reviews I bought this card and immediately downloaded and installed the 1011 hotfix driver (vs using the included driver CD). Installation with this driver was a snap. As for a performance comparison with the 7950, when I ran Flight Simulator X with the 7950, it would run acceptably only with very low detail settings. With this HD4670, I can run FSX with most details cranked all the way up and still get acceptable performance (i. e. 15 to 20 fps in most areas, with full autogen, full textures, etc at 1024x768x32). I also enjoy full 1080p Blu Ray playback with no stutters.

I purchased this card to make an old PC into a HTPC, and run HD movies to my DLP. Unfortunately, after 2 weeks of trying to figure out why there was no audio through the HDMI, I gave up and currently have this item for sale online. The video aspect of the card was beautiful, but I couldn’t find an answer to the audio problem through any of the support sites, (HIS, Intel, Etc…)

I spent some time doing some research on what would be the best AGP video card for my outdated system. This is it. I usually go with Nvidia, but they have nothing that compares to this card for AGP. This card let me up the settings and frame rate in all the games I run with no problem. But the feature I love the most is the fully function HDMI output. I have the DVI connected to my monitor and the HDMI to the my LCD TV. The sound is fine and it plays 1080p with outta problem. A little FYI for ya.. The power connector on this card is the peripheral 4-pin, not the 6-pin, so if you don’t have an extra 4-pin you’ll have to pick up an adapter.

A well engineered & manufactured G-Card with lots of heat sink & air cooling to make it perform to its full potential. However there was a total absence of documentation regarding operation, only a very sparse Quick Installation Guide. I wound up using the manual from another card to set up my multi display system.

As of this writing, the drivers don’t support RGB Overlay, which is required for blu-ray playback. Because of this, some blu-ray discs will fail to load; I learned this the hard way. Still, it’s a solid card for gaming and will keep your old AGP system alive a little longer.

If you are stuck in the ”I have enough to splurge on the best GPU I can get but that’s about it” stage and can’t afford to change everything (mobo, PSU, CPU, RAM, etc.) because you’re way behind, then this is the best AGP card you can get. This made HUGE improvements over the HIS IceQ 3 Turbo HD3850 I had before (which was also the best at the time). I can play games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat now on mid-high settings on my P4 3.4Ghz! Definitely an awesome card. Too bad HIS takes forEVER to release new drivers while everyone else with any other ATI card gets regular updates.

First thing i noticed out of box – heat sink material on back but NO heatsink and those parts hot. But card worked great first couple of weeks even in dual monitor mode. Games played like Liquid no lag at all, which is why i wanted card with 1 gb of memory. Then i noticed after long play times – lockup and strange glitches and colors, so rebooted and all fine untill finally RB several times per game then finally hot smell then nothing.. Card lasted 36 days i think… Started warranty process weeks of calls and messages and links and finally get RMA, sent it to Calif and never seen it again, no email or anything to even say they got it.. warranty is useless if it takes years to replace it.. Right

Card Specks AGP 3.0 1.5 Volt. not listed in Product Information and it needs to be. That seems to be The only issue with the description on the website. You may have a problem with Driver instillation if so you will need the Hot Fix patch. Read the driver install info so ya get it right the first time. ATI isn’t known for writing drivers very well or so I have read elsewhere and I concur. After the drivers are installed correctly the Card works well enough and is a relatively good buy. I am normally a die-hard Nvidia guy and couldn’t find any AGP cards that could compete with this one.

Card installed right in with no hitches. HIS website provided the latest drivers plus Xp Hotfix and the latest version of Catalyst CC. Was a little leary about this card at first due to alot of problems with the 4670 AGP line and the Onboard HDMI audio affecting performance. Once i saw a new manufacturer(HIS) offering this card a year later i decided to go ahead and purchase this card for my old AGP gaming rig and rebuild it for my Stepsons Birthday. Was happy to see the HDMI issue was no longer a problem. and that Cat CC had Overdrive enabled for this card (unlike the PowerColors version of the 4670 AGP, Also having the biggest issue with the onboard HDMI) very happy with this card and the drivers available for it. plays Crysis Warhead on max settings flawlessly. Performance wise its not up to par with Sapphires’s Radeon HD 3850 AGP but for the price to performance its a steal

Eventually I installed it on a genetic computer with an AMD Athlon 2200 DUV3V. Here it ran with Windows XP SP3 Home Edition installed without any problems.

I bought this card because I wanted to take advantage of DX10. I installed this card, installed the driver off of the cd provided for Win 7, and then installed the latest drivers from Ati. People who are having problems with this card crashing on their systems or that are saying they are having problems with this card ALREADY had problems with their computers or don’t know what they are doing. Try removing all of your old video card drivers and doing some research before you install a new piece of hardware. The card itself is great, its nice and cool and works fine with my 550watt power supply. Check out the minimum requirements before you blame the new hardware for your old hardware not working with newer stuff. This is by no means THE BEST CARD EVAR! This is not top of the line. You want that, then upgrade your entire system.
