If anyone is at all interested in this card, here are some pros and cons that I've found so far.

Pro: Runs really cool (currently at 43C at 570mhz after 4hrs of gpu folding)
Pro: Has a lot of overclocking room (up to 570mhz so far from 500mhz stock)
Pro: Has an above average heatsink

Con: The card is extremely loud with the stock fan
Con: The stock fan is only a 2-pin fan so the fan speed is not adjustable
Con: It does not have a vga port so you must have a monitor with hdmi or dvi

I couldn't stand the stock fan running constantly at 100% for more than a couple of minutes. The card would probably stay cool enough with the fan completely off, but I ended up removing the stock fan and replacing it with another fan that I had lying around. The card is quiet now and running at 570mhz at 43C under load. Not bad for $20.
