5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with Windows Vista, December 6, 2006

This review is from: Diamond Stealth S120 Radeon 9550 256 MB GPU (Personal Computers)
I installed this in a Windows Vista Ultimate system and Vista automatically downloaded and installed the latest driver. I have Aero Glass running and the performance rating is in the 4.x range. Also, the Diamond version of this card has an onboard fan to minimize the heat (the ATI version doesn't). Also, Media Center works really well under this card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great card!!, January 25, 2007
This review is from: Diamond Stealth S120 Radeon 9550 256 MB GPU (Personal Computers)
I bought this mainly so that I could run Microsoft Robotics Studio simulator. Anything less than an ATI 9400 specs. will not run the simulator due a lack of shaders which the 9550 has. After I installed the card the simulator ran great and I've been very happy with it. The 3D graphics run without any choking and I'm running it on a 1GHz PC with 512MB RAM. I would definitly recommend this card.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great video card for the budget minded!, April 3, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Diamond Stealth S120 Radeon 9550 256 MB GPU (Personal Computers)
I bought this card for my husband for Christmas. Now, he LOVES the performance and it made his Tiger Woods 2007 golf game look GREAT! So much so, that I am rather envious as it doesn't look anywhere near as nice on my computer which has an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200!

The one reason I give it 4 stars is that from the reviews and from the PICTURE posted here on Amazon, I thought it would have a cooling fan. It does not, or at least the one we received from Tiger Direct does not. It has a heat sink instead. So if you must have a cooling fan, realize that sometimes this product ships with a heat sink.

That said, there has been no problem with the card through lack of a cooling fan, the heat sink seems to work just fine and my husband often spends hours on his computer.

My husband has a home built system, running Windows XP Home SP1.

Update 9/16/2008:

Well, the lack of a cooling fan has not been a problem. The card has been running without a single hitch or glitch. I'm sorry I didn't give it 5 stars instead of 4.
