what is this card

[braxtinc]

i found it at work, and the guy didnt know what it was so i dont know if its good or not, yes its old

[Bananasplit_00]

duknow, shove it in a computer and check?

[pwn_intended]

Its some basic GPU. Probably along the lines of a gt620 or a radeon 5450 or something.

It is useful if you have a computer without any graphics and don't plan on gaming...

It's a 9300GE. Check the P/N.

[privoid]

How about just installing it into some random PC and check what it is that way?

Overclock it.

It's a Graphic Processing Unit, able to run Digital Video Interface or High-Definition Multimedia Interface, connected to a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express.

Damn, I checked the part number and then started reading through the thread, you beat me to it.

The giveaway it was old & slow (bad combo) to sad people like me is that was clearly a DDR2 Hynix IC visible in the photo and not a DDR3 based one

I see the memory modules, but what tells you they're DDR2?

Hynix ICs have a 3 character code at the end of the longest line which will tell you what IC it is (for ddr3: AFR, BFR, CFR, MFR are the most common ones you will see), and the JEDEC bin codes are different (although not visible on OPs imagine, it will be something like FP-Y5 wheres on DDR3 it is stuff like PBC)

A google image will more than suffice, but yes

I think windows 7 aero is probably all it'll take to benchmark this
