    Default ECS GeForce GT 640

    We've seen several Kepler-based graphics cards from Nvidia, and have noted their ability to provide great performance at competitive prices. And today is a bit of a continuation of that trend, as we're looking at the GeForce GT 640, a lower-end card that comes with a retail price of around $100 and targeted to consumers on a very tight budget that don't need a powerhouse gaming card. While the ECS GT 640 does target modest goals, we love great value, so the question is can this card perform reasonably well enough to earn a recommendation from us? Let's see how it shapes up.

    Great review Jake but I think it's a bit to expensive for what it has to offer.

    Great review... A bit on the expensive side like Vinny mentioned, but decent card for a HTPC with some light gaming..
