 Not quite December 28, 2008
K. Gittins (CA USA)
I had (I think) an unusual problem - after couple weeks, my Samsung SyncMaster 216BW monitor would look "smudged". It was still sharp, but looked like a shadow or smudge off to the right of letters or graphics. If I unplugged the analog cable from the computer for a minute, the monitor was fine for another couple weeks.
So, I thought getting a graphics card would allow me to use a DVI cable and solve the problem. It has solved the problem as the monitor no longer goes into its occasional "smudge mode".
There is a new problem, however. Although there is no noticeable difference in image sharpness with the DVI input over analog input (not the probelm as the image was always very good), the quality of the image has gone down. If a screen has a gradient background, for instance, there are noticeable tone divisions that I never had with the onboard graphics adaptor. It gives my digital pictures a sort of "paint-by-numbers" effect, which obviously is not desirable. There are some tests and settings available, but nothing obvious to fix this issue (that I can determine).
The card is easy to install, and allows the user to change settings specific to many games. It might have a good application, but not really good for mine.

Very good value. Installed easily and works very well. I play older games like Medal of Honor-Pacific assault and it runs very well.

The eVGA GeForce 8400 GS is a nice little card. I used it in a Linux system and had no problem with it. My experience with eVGA graphics cards has always been excellent - great performance, great price, great warranty. They're always the first ones I look to when getting a new card.
22" widescreen displays perfectly w/ this card November 3, 2008

Bought this to fix flickering and distortion on new 22" Soyo monitor. Previous video setup didn't offer native resolution setting of 1680x1050, 60hz. The 8400gs card does, and that made all the difference. Setup was smooth, documentation good. Only downside is some extra fan noise since card has its own fan. (Note--before installing, I used Windows Device Manager to disable my old CPU-integrated video adapter.)
Great Price for a good product September 5, 2008

All of the EVGA e-Geforce cards I have purchased have been great products. They also have the best price I have seen for any card at their level.
