Absolutely terrible video card. There is no reason to buy this product at all. I paid over a $100 for this card just to see what it could do and it's slower than my Laptop's Intel HD 5500 integrated graphics!!! Worthless. You can spend $80 and get a GT 1030 that bench's over a 1000% higher! Do not buy this product.
