For those looking to upgrade with older motherboards that only supports PCI-e 1X slots, here is a virtual 'plug-n-play' graphics card. Of course, this card has a multitude of other applications however, I mention the older motherboard scenario to assist those frustrated who purchase more power-intensive cards only to be unable to run them unless extra power plugs are purchased and, in some cases, BIOS settings (which isn't always easy for entry-level PC DIYers to navigate) are changed. This card eliminates all that headache.
NVIDIA offers you an independent control panel which you'll want to make use of. A well-thought out options box gives instant access to adding or taking away 3D graphics. They offer an in-house display to show you the changes on the fly so you don't have have to open and close your display settings a dozen times before committing to your preference settings.
NVIDIA also does a very polite thing by offering you a separate download window to install their game pack drivers. This eliminates you from being bombarded with their gaming nagware and it also saves you resources.
A very powerful card with the performance to back it up. I caught this at rollback prices with free shipping adding further value. Please make sure you have an ample PSU to run this card before installing.
