ATi Radeon 64MB DDR VIVO

Love the card... runs everything at 1280x1024 with decent framerates.

Hehehe, i just added a A7N266-E board to the mix here, went from a Radeon AIW 32MB DDR to a geforce3 ti200 64MB DDR. the Nforce chipset contains a Geforce2 MX that shares as much as 32MB of the system's twinbank DDR RAM.
 
Just upgraded from a Voodoo 2 to PNY GF4 MX440. UT, QIII & Mech 4 are awesome with the new card. I wanted the Ti series but I wanted to eat this month



Where ever you go, there you are.
 
I have a 3DProphet 4500 64mb meself, no video-out... no need for a TVout (whats the point when U have a good monitor... dont know about performance for Halflife but Max Payne is v. nice looking except at maximum detail (and I mean turn everything on !!! @ 1074x768x32)...

There are no stupid questions... just lots of inquisitive idiots...
 
10ghz, mines PCI also. Maybe i just think its good cause i just dont know any better. Im FINALLY getting a gf2 gts next weekend so i guess ill see then! 😉
 
Well what's you budget? Since you're aiming for the GF2 Ultra, I'll guess you have at least that much moola. I'd recommend a GF4 Ti4200 64MB when it comes out because the benchmarks show it whooping everything except for the R8500 sometimes and the higher GF4 cards. They'll be prices @ about $160 which isn't bad at all. Also what's you system specs?
 
Whoah... nope never noticed that. That's why everyone here never talked about GF4s and had old cards... I was like, why is no one recommending the GF4s? That was a long time ago..... Well I never look at the dates of the thread anyways..
 
Way back then I got the Gainward GeForce2 Pro and I overclocked it to 240/505. It's more than enough for the time being.

Gainwards are really nice. I'll go with them again next time, unless I go for ATI of course.

Ahh, the time that has past. Why did this thread get up so high in my screen? I though these ones would be the newer ones.... And sorry couldn't have helped you before, but a year ago, [joke] I didn't even know that the internet existed! (Drum and cymbal) :] [/joke] No, I did but I didn't know Tom's Hardware Guide existed. No joke.
 
I have a GF2 64MB DDR and games run great!! If you have the money invest in either a GF4 TI4400 ot TI4600. That would be my choice.

:tongue: <font color=red>I invented the internet and bacon.</font color=red> :tongue:
 
Did you fall victim to this thread too? :smile:

It's an old thread that keeps getting bumped. I'm fine with my GF2 for now. I'll upgrade when UT2 and similar games come out.

Your thread is over a year old now. 😎

I agree. I haven't found a longer one yet!

I thought the first list was locked. This one isn't.

Yeah, but I ended it since it was so long and started a second part. Fredi was nice enough to lock it so it didn't get bumped. I suppose I could have just kept it going but it was insanely long.

Ok, I know I shouldn't even ask this question, but how big a difference is there between a GF4 and a GF2? These new games look awesome on my rig, but I'm curious if it's just because I don't know the difference.

Take Dungeon Siege for example. Will a new card have more effects than I'm seeing or what?
