Is this a good video card?

128MB PCIe x16 nVidia Quadro FX540 (D)*, Dual VGA or VGA+DVI Capable

Does anyone have experience with this card and V5 R16?
Is this one certified? I don't have a link to the certified Graphics card website.

I don't believe this card is certified (correct me if I'm wrong). This is an "entry-level" video card, I would probably look at at least the 1000-series FX cards. We are running the FX 1300 with no issues (certified).
You could take a look at DS website for a listing of certified machines and see what video cards are being used.

Hope that helps.

thanks everyone. It turns out this is a certified card and is good enough for training purposes.
