    There was a thread on this card a few days ago.

    From what I remember from it, pretty much any nVidia card with x5xx in the series and LE in the name is something you want to avoid.

    It seems that the 7500LE is a card put together by Asus. Browsing aorund HP's site, I noticed a few desktops using the card, but its unheard of, and I would go for a mainstream, popular GPU.

    BTW, I wouldn't buy of that "pc world" wesbite. The header of the page indicates that the page is a scam, Hewlett Packard was spelt totally wrong, and there was no security information about the page.

    Avoid the GPU and avoid that site :p

    'LE' usually stands for loser edition :) - underclocked CPU and RAM. It's usually low-quality slow RAM too. It's like building a 'new' car but with parts left over from the preceding decade.

    Somewhere between a 7400 and 7600??... But since its LE, its slightly more powerful or about the same as a 7400 go.

    At first I thought it was ATi 7500 LE. lol
    I had the ATi 7500 years ago and it achieved a massive 4k in 3DMark2001. :p :D

    I actually have the NVIDIA 7500 LE in my HP desktop. It is not a great card by any means but it is roughly about like a 7400 go as the prior poster remarked. It achieves a 2163 score on 3DMark 05. So far, it plays all the games I have but I will upgrade when it starts having problems.
