Is this card any good for the money, seems like a great deal, tried to play Guitar Hero 3 on my PC and got a message saying my Vid Card was not supported.

What power supply do you have? If it's a cheap unit, you will need to replace that too if you're upgrading your graphics card.
Also, have you checked that your motherboard supports the type of graphics card you're installing? For a card not to support Guitar Hero 3 it must be very old, and may be AGP. If that's the case, you can only replace it with an AGP card, not a PCI express one as shown.
