Power-Color Radeon 9200SE Review

The card comes in a box that is smaller than most other video cards so I am guessing not much is inside. The top of the box is pretty plain with a few details and the back of the box has some specifications with more detail.

This 9200 has a red PCB and a passive aluminum heatsink which is probably sufficient since it is a lower end card and won’t get too hot. The card comes in a 64MB and 128MB version, however I got the 64MB one. The card is very low profile which would be good for a lot of small PC type projects.

The card has a VGA, DVI, and RCA out connection which is pretty nice for a low end card. Because this card is designed to be low profile you have the option to make the card smaller by moving or removing the VGA connection. On most cases there is a cutout where you can mount the VGA port if you need to make the card low profile. If you do not need the VGA at all you can then just remove it.

The card is pretty lacking as far as what comes with it. Included is a RCA cable, a smaller back plate, users manual, and driver CD. There is also no software at all which is a little disappointing.

The heatsink is epoxied on so I did not attempt to remove it because I did not want to damage the card. This card uses 4ns Hynix chips; Because this is a lower end video card the RAM is not BGA but this shouldn’t make much of a difference.
