My guess would be no Its an entry level card with low shader count.

i think 256bit bus should be bare minium on gpu these days... but 64 bit **** not for that price

This isn't Gigabyte's first GT640...and the card sells on Newegg for $89.99 + shipping eVGA wants upwards of $140 for a Fermi based GT640.

Is this card better than hd 6850 ?

not even close....

Wounder how this would do for a physics card.

Being Fermi based, it might not do too pathetically....but the Kepler based GT640s are garbage.

256bit memory bus would be wasted on these cards....

256bit should be minimum on mid and upper range cards or are you trying to tell me 256 bit on cards mid range card is waste to and that low bit isnt gimping the bandwith besides 64bit is seriously gimping the bandwith anyway just cause the rest of the card power is useless dont mean the extra bandwith wont have its usage
