just because it runs on an nvidia chip, doesnt mean its fantastic. My guess is that all the other components on that board or much lower quality, and therefore will crap out sooner than a true nvidia. You see this everywhere, someone that makes a good product allows other companies to make "bargain" versions for much less cost.

I would save my money and buy a higher end manufacturers card, even if its a few generations old.
