MSI ATI Radeon RX2400Pro Video Card Review

Overall, I was very pleased with the quality of the video with this card.  The extreme detail and beauty of the graphics was a fantastic jump over the nVidia 5500.  I have to say that I wasn’t impressed with the fanless cooling, as I believe that no matter what video card you are running there should always be at least a chipset fan onboard the card.  After only half an hour the card was getting pretty hot and I had to shut everything down and attach a fan of my own.  Even with a simple fan I had lying around the temperature was cut in half and I went on playing.

Quality 4 Is very well designed to take up less room and provide more quality, but the fanless thing doesn’t sit well with me.
Innovation 5 For what it can do, this card is well designed and doesn’t take up much space when packed among components.
Installation 5 It doesn’t get much easier than installing PCIe.  One of the more simple upgrades you can give a computer.
Performance
Performance 4 Does a beautiful job rendering detail, but can’t handle extreme detail in a highly populated environment.
Value 5 There are many cards that do a much better job, but when it comes to price this one gives plenty of bang for the buck.
FINAL VERDICT: 5 out of 5 stars
