I've been using this card for about 5 years now and it's been very reliable. I've played games such as Counter-Strike with a solid 99fps and CSSource with about 45fps on medium settings. I also played Lineage II and Final Fantasy XI with this card for several years and it works great with those games as well.

It's a tough little card and I would highly recommend it as a budget card for casual gaming if you want to upgrade from integrated graphics. You can overclock it for better performance easily, mine is currently 351mhz/481mhz

Shrink a NV11 core (GeForce2 MX) so you can squeeze 50 more MHz out of it, stick with the same SDR RAM that goes with Nvidia cards since the TNT2, and voila ! A brand new GeForce4 card.

Looking back in the past shows that Nvidia recycling GPUs is nothing new.
