Howdy all, new to the posting thing, however been a reader of tomshardware for a long time now. I have a quick question for anyone who cares to give me a few minutes of their time. I'm planning on buying a new video card because my generic gforce 256 32meg is horrible. (most likely because its not really a gforce, lol). Anyway, i'm looking to spend less than or around 150 bucks for this new video card. From all the reviews I have read and all the postings i've had the time to read, it seems that I have plenty of options open to me. So far that best i've seen for the price was the
MSI StarForce 831, GeForce2 Pro, 64MB DDR RAM, 5.5 ns. Heat Sink.
its got the 64megs of ddr ram 400mhz, but i can't find the spec file on it to know if the memory pipeline is small like most of the mx ddr's or larger like, I've heard that the pro and ultras use the higher pipeline makeing the DDR worthwhile.
So If anyone can give me a little advise on what they think is the best card for the money under 150 it would be much appriciated.
Thanks,
