- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2025I built my desktop pc about ten years ago and had been noticing a slowing/sluggish response to photo and video editing processing.
I decided to upgrade/update the video card and add more RAM to the main system.
Since the video card got here first, I decided to install it. This new video card has 4GB of memory, compared to the 1GB that my previous card had. After the install, which was dead simple, I noticed that opening photo and video files was almost instantaneous. Editing those same files is also almost instantaneous and much faster in screen response than with the previous card.
If you have an older computer that is compatible with this card and are looking to speed up photo/video processing, this video card would be a good place to start. Between this card and the system RAM that I purchased to quadruple my RAM, I spent $130 US. That figure is far cheaper than replacing the entire system and should get me by for at least a few more years.
I cannot speak to any gaming functions, because I don't do gaming on this computer.
Final note: check your user manual to make sure that this video card will work with your computer. You need to have the correct PCI-E, 3.0, X 16 bus. And regardless of what other upgrades you are contemplating, make sure they are compatible with your motherboard and with your current operating system.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2025Super! Thank you.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2025Quick and easy installation. Drivers immediately recognized. Good performance.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2025I purchased this video card to replace an older Nvidia card that was showing it's age. Bought a newer Nvidia card but I was unable to set the resolution higher than 1028 x 768 using Nvidia graphics drivers on my Debian based Linux OS. Got so frustrated that I sent it back. I purchased this AMD Radeon RX 550 video card because the AMD drivers were already in the software repository. All I did was take out the old Nvidia card, pop in the new AMD Radeon card. Powered up the PC and the video card was recognized immediately and the appropriate graphics driver was installed. That's what I like. Just a note: I don't do any heavy gaming on my PC, but according to specs, it can handle most gaming. So, if you are running a Debian based Linux OS and having trouble installing graphics drivers for your Nvidia card, try the AMD Radeon card. It's plug and play.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2025Works well for my use case, which is office work on a 4K TV as a monitor. I did not use it for gaming.
I needed a graphic card that will run only with PCIe power and without a separate power connector for my HP Pavilion TP01-2256 desktop with a 310W factory installed power supply. There is just enough space to fit this case in. Now I have 60hz on my 4k TV. I did not need to install any driver. It worked as soon as I installed and boot up.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2023It doesn't have a good heat sink on it so it over heats I had to put 2 big fans on it to keep it cool so it had a total of 3 fans on it so it wouldn't crash and that's on high resolution the ultra resolution it crashed right away that's how bad it overheats but besides that graphics are excellent.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2024My old 1GB graphic card could just not keep up to the demands of making large image files for posters. It was causing frustrating delays, waiting for a refresh after every edit. At first I mistakenly bought an 8GB card I thought I could use to replace it, but it required a power connection I did not have. So I would have had to buy a completely new power supply. Yikes! Luckily my friendly neighborhood PC repair shop advised me to try this 4MB one, which didn't require a power supply connection. And it works great with little to no lag time after making edits to large graphic files. Recommended.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2022I bought this card as an upgrade to a system currently running 3 monitors, intending to replace the HP AMD Radeon card that came with the computer with a faster one. With the new card installed, the computer halted before windows boot with a condition of no video card detected, so (of course) no signal to the attached monitors. After verifying that the card was properly seated and connected, and fan active, at least three possibilities remained: 1) the card was defective, 2) the card and BIOS are incompatible, or 3) that particular computer had a defective slot. Possibility 3) was investigated by substituting the card into a second computer of the same model and configuration, again with no video card detected.
Consequently, I reluctantly returned the card. If the card was defective, I didn't want to keep it. If the BIOS was incompatible with the card, this would require finding, then applying a BIOS upgrade, which might or might not resolve the problem. If a BIOS upgrade fails, one possibility is that the mainboard is 'bricked', rendering that computer useless. Neither of these outcomes was acceptable to me, so I returned the card. Thanks Amazon. Your easy return policy is one of the reasons you get my business.
In most situations, a video card is detected during BIOS boot and operates with default low resolution until the OS boots, at which time appropriate drivers can be loaded. I still cannot say whether this card is compatible with an HP H8-1240T, only that the card I received was certainly NOT. I asked this question in the customer reviews section, but received no definitive answer, only novice level guidance. Considering that new electronics are highly likely to arrive in working condition, the most likely explanation is that the card and that computer model are incompatible.

Presse - ProdukttesterinReviewed in Germany on October 28, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Perfekt für Office und Linux - Eine großartige Wahl!
Ich möchte meine Begeisterung für die maxsun Grafikkarte AMD Radeon RX 550 zum Ausdruck bringen. Diese Karte ist seit einiger Zeit in meinem Bürocomputer im Einsatz, und sie hat sich als eine erstklassige Wahl erwiesen.
Als leidenschaftliche Linux-Nutzerin freute es mich besonders, dass die Installation dieser Karte ein Kinderspiel war. Ohne zusätzliche Konfigurationen lief sie direkt nach dem Einbau reibungslos und problemlos. Das war für mich eine sehr angenehme Überraschung.
Die Bildqualität, die diese Grafikkarte bietet, ist beeindruckend. Sie ist gestochen scharf und perfekt für alltägliche Aufgaben wie Büroarbeit, das Surfen im Internet und das Ansehen von Videos. Diese Karte erfüllt alle Anforderungen spielend.
Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die Tatsache, dass sie keine übermäßige Wärme erzeugt, was die Temperatur im Inneren meines Computergehäuses niedrig hält. Die Tatsache, dass sie keinen zusätzlichen Stromanschluss benötigt, macht sie zu einer idealen Wahl für Systeme mit begrenzter Leistung, wie meinen Computer mit einem 300-Watt-Netzteil.
Zusammenfassend kann ich sagen, dass die maxsun Grafikkarte AMD Radeon RX 550 eine großartige Wahl für den Office-Einsatz unter Linux ist. Sie bietet eine reibungslose Leistung und erfordert keinerlei zusätzliche Anpassungen. Wenn Sie nach einer Grafikkarte suchen, die Ihre Anforderungen erfüllt und gleichzeitig benutzerfreundlich ist, dann ist dies die perfekte Wahl.
