Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
It uses the RV280 core (4 pipeline), like the Radeon 9000 but with AGP8x support. The passive heatsink probably means that the core runs at 200MHz.
The 256MB is almost useless on a card like this because you're not going to be running 4x FSAA at 1600x1200x32 in games with massive textures on this class of card.
You're much better off with a 128MB Radeon 9100 (R200 core with 8 pipelines). It's much faster and is also cheaper when you include shipping. http://www.pricewatch.com/1/37/5030-1.htm Several of those are under $75 shipped.
