That's because it's made by a German company, and has for that reason
been treated by the US sites/press in a very "redheaded stepchild"
fashion.

Ooohhkayyy.... No, don't even think about playing Gothic on that, it's
a Morrowind-like game, and a voodoo card simply wont have the
traction. I'd recommend a Geforce4 Ti 4200, they're quite capable and
reasonably priced. Avoid all Geforce cards with an MX anywhere in the
name, though.

With that card, you might want to have a look at Baldurs Gate 2 and/or
Planescape Torment instead.
