GigaByte Radeon HD 2400 XT

Strengths: Crossfire ability, price

Weakness: possible heat build-up

Great budget card for a budget computer build. While this card will not play some of the more graphic intensive games such as Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, Bioshock most other recent games will work fine. The passive cooling actually works quite well under most conditions. Perfect for a non-intensive gaming system but still enables HD playback options and high quality wide-screen options.Overall, a good...

2400XT

Strengths: Hybrid cossfire, passive cooling, price

Weakness: heat, no HD audio

Quote : The core area was decreased by 15% after passage on 55 nm technical process. The Radeon HD 3450 support PCI Express 2.0, DirectX 10.1 If we speak about the speed, then Radeon HD 3450 from the Radeon HD 2400 pro was detached by 27% on average , this is due to the increase in clock frequencies from 525/800 MHz to 600/1000 MHz.

This video card rocks

Strengths: Very good card for every day applications and basic gaming. I use this card for HTPC. It has passive cooling, but is very stable, no overheating issue. The heat sink and the vga port can be removed.

Weakness: I said heat sink and vga port can be removed, but the manufacturer didn't provide another bracket to make it a low profile card, which may be trouble for compact cases.

I think this is a great card and a budget buy. I bought it for $10, supposing the rebate comes back. It will works great for someone wants DVI but can't find one on their motherboard. With a DVI-to-HDMI cable, it is a good card for HTPC setup. I didn't try to play blueray though.

Not for Hard core gamer

Strengths: For everyday use and browsing

Weakness: Still gets very hot

After reading some reviews from other users, decided to gamble on this one. Well, for the price paid, you get what you paid for. Very good though for regular use like Office Suites and Internet browsing. Had to install additional fan inside the case. Good if you pay for this less than $15.

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 2400XT

Strengths: Fast Graphics, offering completely silent cooling.

Weakness: not as good as the fan versions and the 512MB versions.

I know that someone will ask what a 256MB video card can do? I will combine the Gigabyte 780g Hybrid CrossfireX BOARD with already has 256MB on board with GIGABYTE Radeon HD 2400XT GVRX24T256H Video Card. So I have total 512 video card. The only thing I don't like about this video card is it lack cooling support.
