This graphics card was needed to replace an integrated ATI graphics chip on my mother board that went bad. I chose this model because I needed a low power passive card since my power supply was only 250 watts. There are several companies the utilize this chip set, but I chose Asus because of it's reputation for quality. I have a dual monitor setup. Installation was straight forward. Plug in the card and attach the 2 monitors, turn on the computer. It worked right off the bat on both monitors. Win 10 automatically assigned a 'Basic" driver which at least allowed me to see what I was doing. I inserted the included CD to run the setup. The setup took about 5 or 6 minutes, (which seemed long to me). When it was done, WhaLa! Both monitor came on, each running independently and each set to 1920x1080. A perfect setup with out intervention by me. There was ghosting and the sluggish rendering which was bad. I went to the Asus website to retrieve the latest driver update. This driver setup also took 5 minutes to install, and everything was automatic. When completed both monitors rendered 100% and functioned 100% with out my having to do a single thing. This is the way you wish all installations should work. My Kudos to Asus for doing this right the first time. Registration was also simple as the model # and serial # number were sent automatically. I now have a dual monitor setup that functions perfectly with no work on my part. I don't play games so I can't rate the card on this aspect. It comes with a utility to tweak the card and display temperature and performance, but I don't use it. Card temperature is only displayed in Celsius, and no way to change to Fahrenheit. The only con I could think of is that I had to contact support to find out if the card would run on Win 10, otherwise it is a truly great legacy graphics card, and this card will not disappoint you.

Updated 11/30/16: Unfortunately, this card didn't resolve my computer's crashing problem with the Win 10 anniversary update. No fault of the card, but more I believe the NVIDIA driver for the motherboard, namely nvstor.sys. I must have incorrectly assumed that just switching video cards would solve the crashing, but not so. I still give this card 5 stars. Original review follows: ------------------------------ I owned a Nvidia GT610 graphics card which was working fine until after installing the Windows 10 Anniversary update. After that, my computer would randomly crash with the blue screen of death (BSOD). This happened a few times a week. I used a program called "BlueScreenView" to see that Windows 10 wasn't playing nice with a driver from Nvidia. When seeing this bargain priced video card, I decided to give this a try with my aging PC (Dell Optiplex 740 MT, Windows 10 Home, 32 bit system) as I couldn't tolerate the random crashes and was afraid a crash might occur while doing something important like making a purchase or taxes. Plus, though I'm not into heavy gaming, I still needed better graphics than what came onboard. Almost expecting this card to not work or not finding the right driver, the install actually worked on the first try. For my PC I did the following: 1) went to amd's support site and downloaded their autodetect program, 2) Uninstalled the Nvidia card and drivers, 3) Installed the Asus HD6450 card but didn't use the included CD. After booting up, I ran the autodetect program which then installed the AMD Catalyst Control Center program and driver. My impressions are as follows: Pros: - Works with Windows 10 on my PC - budget priced - Easy driver install with autodetect program - Zero noise, no fan and energy efficient - even without fan, not overly hot Cons: - seems not as quick and sharp as my old Nvidia GT610 card (but pretty close) - considered a legacy card (no more ongoing support or future updates) I give this 5 Stars. A simple card to keep the old PC running under Win 10.

Upgraded my Pentium Dual Core HP Slimline s3600f with this graphics card. Installation was easy BOTH with the hardware and software. I had to unhook a couple of wires internally in order to make ample room to install the card in this tight space, but it was really no problem at all. I decided to NOT install the VGA connection that came with the card (it simply unplugs from the card). This allowed me to use only one of the two expansion slots on my computer and leave the other for something else later. My monitor has a DVI connection and I already had the proper cable (originally came with the monitor). My main purpose for buying THIS card was the low price, and my ultimate goal was to add an HDMI connection to my computer allowing me to stream internet to my 46" HDTV. SUCCESS! Much to my surprise, the quality of the picture looks MUCH better on the 46" HDTV then it does on my 19" HP monitor. Very pleased with this. (FYI, the image quality on the monitor is the same both before and after installing this card) My secondary purpose was to have faster interaction with my photos files and post processing program (Lightroom 4). This has definitely helped the speed of loading photo files when opening and scrolling through the images in my Library. Pleased with this as well. Just a note: This software that comes with this card allows you to monitor the temperature of the processor, and I don't know much about what the specs should be reading, but they seem to fluctuate from 34 C to 60 C. Just a note for you technical folks. I would have preferred a fan cooled card, but to be honest, noise was an issue for me, so I thought I'd give this one a try. So far so good. The only negative comment is when I took it out of the box, something in, or on the card rattled a little bit. I thought that there might be something trapped between the heat sink and the card, so I removed the sink (two screws), but there was nothing there and it still had a rattle to it. Installed it anyway and it worked just fine. It has a warranty, so I'll just keep an eye on it. For the money ($39.99) it's just what I needed!

I was looking to update my existing video card which only had DVI and VGA outputs with a newer one that has HDMI output. I chose the Asus ATI Radeon HD6450 because it was one of the few video cards that had a low profile and it needed to fit my Dell Optiplex 960 (slim tower). The video card came pre-installed with a standard bracket which needed to be swapped out with the optional low profile brackets that were also included in the box. The Asus video card was very easy to install but the only issue I had was that my Dell's side panel case cover would not close properly. It turns out the Asus video card's pc board was slightly longer than my older video card. The computer's side panel cover (interior side) had a some bracket railing that slightly protruded. This bracket would press against the edge of the Asus video card's pc board which prevented the cover from closing properly and resulted in a bulge and some gap. This left me with two options - Cut a notch on the edge of the Asus video card's pc board (since there were no components or electrical traces near that area of the pc board) or grind down the part of the metal rail on the interior side of the panel cover. Cutting the notch on the edge of the video card would have been the easiest option but I did not want to void the warranty. I decided to just grind down the interior side of the side panel using a Dremel rotary tool. After fixing the computer's side panel fitment issue I continued with the installation of the Asus software and drivers. The software allowed for various tweaking of the video card's hardware to enhance performance. For now, I left everything at the default values because I didn't plan to use this computer for any type of gaming. I connected a Samsung 40" LCD TV to the HDMI port and a Dell 20" monitor to the DVI port. I had no use for the VGA port but I installed it anyway just in case I would ever need to connect an older monitor to the desktop. I configured my computer for extended desktop choosing the DVI output as the primary and HDMI as the secondary. The Asus video card works great just as I expected it to. Now I am able to play movies on my desktop computer and watch them on my LCD TV.

I have an HP Slimline mini desktop dating from about 2009. (HP S5310t - but the slimline HPs from that era all used a similar form factor). The video card died when the fan on it seized up, and so I found myself shopping for a replacement. Going shopping for a video card for an older computer with a very small form factor is definitely a little unnerving. On a computer this old, I am not exactly looking for serious gaming performance. Anything out there is a few generations ahead of what I had, so relative power is not the key question. Instead, my main concerns were: (1) Will it actually fit in my small case? (2) Will it actually work once I get it in there? As for making it fit, this card is "Low profile ready". What that means is it won't fit a small computer case when it comes out of the box, but they give you the pieces you need to make it fit. Basically the little metal plate at the back of the card where you plug the card into the monitor cable is too long, but they give you two shorter plates that you can swap out for the big one. One short connector plate is for the newer, digital connectors (DVI & HDMI) and the second is for the more basic, VGA connector. You can actually have all three connectors available, even when the card is installed in a small computer, just as long as there are two open slots on the back of the case next to each other. The cable that connects the VGA out to the card is long enough that you can reach the second opening in the back of the case. I happened to have that space available on my computer and so I set it up that way. All you need to swap out the back plates is a small diameter Phillips head screwdriver and some needle-nose pliers for the little bolts that hold it to the card. This is not a task for people terrified of anything remotely mechanical, but it is not hard to do if you are at least modestly handy. Of course, making it fit is not just about the shorter plate on the back of the card, it also means that the card has to fit INSIDE the computer. A really, really fat video card with huge heat sinks all over it might not have enough space to fit inside a mini tower case. Because this card doesn't have a fan and just uses a big heat sink to keep it cool, I was a little worried it would be too fat. But it is really barely thicker than the thickness of the back plate, and so it ought to fit pretty well everywhere. It really doesn't look much bigger than the card it replaced. I definitely like the idea of no separate fan on the video card, since the failure of the last fan was what caused me to go shopping for a new card in the first place. No fan means one less thing to wear out and break. It also makes the computer slightly quieter. Anyway, I got the thing physically into the computer with no real hassles. So now it was time to reconnect the monitor cable, boot up the computer and brace myself for the possibility of a very rough ride. When you are installing a new video card, you are messing around with a lot drivers and so forth in the guts of Windows, and things can easily go south on you. Turns out the install was actually fairly quick and painless. I have a 64 bit, Windows 7 OS, and for me the install actually went very smoothly. Just leave it alone and let it auto-start. It chugs along and requires a reboot but that's it. I was a little worried that my PCI Express x16 (1.0) bus was going make this newer, Express 2.1 card unhappy, but it seems fine. PCI Express is backward compatible, it just means the card runs a bit slower. Before installing anything I did take the step of uninstalling the device driver software for the older card, so there was nothing but the built in windows drivers on the system when I installed this. They don't tell you to do this, but it is a very good idea to clear out any old drivers to avoid driver conflicts. Whole process from opening the box to finishing the install took maybe 30 minutes, including installing the new back plates on the card. Not bad at all. Now that all is up and running, it comes with a monitor utility that shows both capacity of the card and heat. Pushing full HD video out to a 24 inch monitor video through the DVI connector runs the card at roughly 30-50% of capacity and the temp seems to be well within the acceptable range. I haven't done long-term studies of the heat profile yet, but since I am mainly going to be using this computer for business productivity stuff and rarely even using it for video, I am not too worried about it. I think, at least for those light-duty users like me, a card with no fan on it is definitely the way to go. You can actually overclock the card using the software they provide. I am not going to bother since I don't need every bit of performance here, but it is nice to see that they will let you push the card to its limit if you need to. We'll see whether it holds up, but so far, this was a good purchase. Shopping for this was definitely a bit of a hassle, and I was worried the installation would be difficult, but it turned out just fine for me. I am back in business for not much money and will probably get at least another couple years out of this computer now. I figure it was worth the modest, incremental cost to get an ASUS, which is one of the larger and better known board makers. Maybe I could have saved a few bucks by going with one of these companies I'd never heard of, but for something like this, where a lot can easily go wrong, less hassle is definitely worth a little more cash.

my son (age 11) so SOOOOO SAD. I have always got good stuff from amazon, but just like work;there is always bad day somewhere during the year. 1 the card came with now install cd. I got the paper cd cover but no cd. WOW. so I had to download the software. 2 After the install the screen would boot up, and freeze before the boot up would finish. NOTHING!! and I mean NOTHING would fix this. I tried a vga cable, hd cable, dvi cable, dvi to hd cable and multiple software re installs. All had the same results. a frozen screen. 3. Once I turned the computer off and let it set for several hours. The computer would boot up and work, but I ALWAYS got a mesg saying to install the drivers for the card. How is that possible? I had already installed the drivers and should not be getting this mesg. I mean it was like filling your tank with gas and your fuel gauge still reads empty. LOL. 4. The card came with three plates that you could inter change. They are not interchangble. In the picture you see a small screw above the HBMI cable, well that screw hole does not line up when you use the HD/DVI plate. NOT A GOOD PRODUCT

In short, my old Geforce 9500GT had overheating issues, an unreliable fan, and one of those awful heatsinks capped by a plastic dust cover, so I thought this would be a good replacement for a PC used for browsing and some gaming. It does okay for the money and watts. Pros: Price (a bit less than other budget cards) Fanless design (the heatsink seems like actually solid aluminum and the card felt heavy) Very low power consumption (something like 9 watts idle, 27 watts peak, 50% less than many "gaming" type cards) Unquestionably better than integrated Intel graphics!!! [update :at least older Intel graphics, circa 2009-2012)] Cons: 64 bit interface (a bit of a downgrade for me and a surprising disappointment for 2012. I expected at least 128 bit) Anti-aliasing hardware limited to 4x Debatable performance 3d Mark 2006 gave the 3 year old 9500GT a combined score of _4428_, vs the Radeon 6450's score of _3241_ (and CPU sub-scores were about 20 pts better on the Radeon test). In game performance seems to contrary, a significant improvement with the 6450. This worked fine for playing Oblivion and Skyrim, games that are graphics optimized and CPU-bound to some degree. Contrary to popular belief, you don't "need" a gaming midrange (6770, 7770, which I used for a year) or high midrange (7870, my current 2014 card) to play games. Most games these days "Scale" to the appropriate graphics settings for your system, and the ones that heavily GPU dependent (Metro 2033 / Last Light comes to mind), those games will have some slowdowns no matter what you throw at them. Idle temps of ~42°C, relatively stable load temps in the area of 58-60 °C, with long term peaks around 65-67°C (after a few hours of games loaded). So I'd say the heatsink is adequate (assuming a case fan and average post-2007ish ventilation), but it does benefit from occasional breaks. Some of the reviews complain about intense overheating under idle conditions (non-gaming conditions). It would seem more likely they had defective cards (probably with a bad heatsink connection) and should have sent them back for an exchange or refund. IMO you shouldn't judge something based on a defective example. In conclusion, I hope it lasts as long as the card it's replacing. Not the performance I had hoped for, but is balanced by the ecological and cost savings vs the mid-budget cards(~$60). No fans to break down and no plastic "ash tray" covering the heatsink, which is the main reason I chose this one. Update from 2014: The card is outdated, but may still be a good value depending on what AMD / Nvidia is selling their low end models for. It's still a good and useful card for HTPC and light gaming uses (WoW, Skyrim, games that are optimized and scaled well). I put this 6450 in what was a new system while I waited for my "gaming" card to arrive, and started to wonder if I wasted a hundred bucks on the "gaming" card since the performance was "just fine" in a new-2013 PC. I don't use it anymore, but it got a year of solid heavy gaming use in hot, non-air-conditioned rooms, three different installations, and I'm certain it would outlast any similar card with a cheapo fan that will break and overheat. Go fanless if you want durability in a low end card and already have decent case ventilation (1 case fan minimum). I've never had a card with a fanless design break, but have a drawer full of cards that broke after 6 months to 2 years because the tiny fans they use broke, forcing me to upgrade sooner than I want to.

Asus AMD Radeon HD 6450 1GB DDR3, Silent I'll be blunt, the HD 6450 is not designed for playing the latest games. I'm hesitant to try older games with it, but it is a significant improvement over Intel's integrated HD2000 and HD3000 graphics in its Sandybridge processors. Intel's HD2000/HD3000 have serious issues with certain movie formats and overscanning with LCD TV's using the HDMI port. I cannot watch MotoGP.com videos in 720P with the HD2000 or HD3000 due to artifacts on the lower half of the screen. I read that 23.97 frame rate movies cannot be played either. So for a HTPC build, or for a general-use build, this is where the HD 6450 shines! It sips energy, so you can run it with a 300W PSU. There's no fan, just a large heatsink so it runs silent. It doesn't get hot and doesn't use much power, and is DirectX 11 compatible. I ran 3DMark11 and got a low 501 score with a Core i3-2120 processor, so it is not setting any records. But it is reliable and runs cold. Using Windows 7's built-in experience index, it went from 5.1 desktop aero graphics using my Intel HD2000, to a 4.5 with the HD 6450. I feel this is a misleading index anyhow. The gaming index with the 6450 Is 6.1, but it isn't that fast for 3D gaming. The 6450 works straight out of the box with LCD TV's without any overscan issues. The HDMI audio is a bit low in volume, I have to turn it up to 100 just to get decent sound out of my TV. Overall: 5/5 stars, does the work just fine for a HTPC build or for the office. It is silent, it runs cold, and it doesn't use a lot of power. So far it seems to run rock steady reliable as well. Just don't plan to play the latest 3D games.
