This graphics card

The MSI GeForce 8600 GT NX8600GT-T2D256EZ is a PCI Express x16 graphics card built on the NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT GPU. It targets users who need a basic DirectX 10 display adapter with 256MB GDDR3 memory for everyday desktop work or older 3D titles.

Verify slot and power

Confirm your motherboard has a free PCI Express x16 slot and that your power supply can deliver enough wattage for the card. Check that your monitor uses DVI or S-Video connections because the bracket provides two DVI ports and an HDTV or S-Video output.

Two DVI ports enable dual displays

The bundled dual DVI outputs let you drive two digital monitors at up to 2560 x 1600 resolution. The S-Video or HDTV connector adds a simple path to a television. Thirty-two CUDA cores and a 400 MHz RAMDAC handle video decode and legacy OpenGL 2.0 tasks.
