Considering that it's still being sold, yes.
But the card shows its age. High resolution DVI
isn't possible. The BES has a maximum source size
of 1024. Only one overlay possible, etc pp.

The G550 i have is still my card of choice, but
it wont stay for long. Either OGP will replace it
or i'll have to look for another card that has
the features i want.
