Does your card show up as a GeForce3Ti or just a GeForce3 under properties
in Windows?
I just received my new card and it is only showing as a Geforce3 under
properites. I called sales who said it should be a GF3Ti200 but that I
needed to talk to tech support. Still waiting for them to call back.
My GF2Ti showed as a Ti under properties, so I think I've been sent a
regular GF3.
What does your card show up as? I want to be able to argue my point with
tech support if they insist it's a Ti200 without giving me any real proof.
It came without a box BTW, or else I wouldn't be going through any of this.

Mine says 3D Blaster GeForce3 Ti200.
See above.

It thought it was possible to identify GF3 Ti cards by the fan being sunk
into the GPU heatsink whereas the regular model has a fan bolted on top of
same? -Could be wrong though...

Und mine is listed as: Nvidia GeForce Ti200
perhaps you chose the wrong option when installing it. Or you didn't get
all the gf2 files banished when you swapped the cards. Good luck.

Mine says "GeForce3 Ti 200". I'm using 2832's on Windows XP Home.

GF3 Ti200
If it's a vanilla GF3 I'd shut up and sit tight!! :-) The Ti200 is
nothing other than a GF3 w/lower clocks. _No_ other differences.

I agree with the previous poster - if I got a GF3 instead of a GF3Ti200, I'd
shut up and be happy. :)
The ONLY - and I do mean ONLY - differences between the Ti200, GF3, and
Ti500 are clock speeds. The parts on all of them are identical - the GPUs,
the RAM, everything. The Ti200 is quite underclocked, and as a result,
often overclocks to at least GF3 speeds, if not Ti500 or higher. The GF3 is
quite close to the slightly faster Ti500 variant.

I was sitting in my big leather arm chair, watching telly and thinking
how marvellous it would be to be a werewolf when David G Fisher said:
Have you downloaded the latest Nvidia detonator drivers? They should
identify the card correctly. I'm not sure what they put on the Install
CD's but on my Geforce 3 (non-Ti) they had generic drivers from
Hercules, the board manufacturer. So I downloaded the detonators which
allow much more configuration. If it still shows as a standard Geforce 3
, then, it probably is. Also try the alt.comp.periphs.videocards.nvidia
NG.
I was quite glad to hear my original Geforce3 is faster than the Ti200
and nearly as fast as the Ti500 btw, can't say I've been keeping up
seeing as they replace them every 6 months.

I'm just going to keep it since it is a little faster than the Ti (as is)
anyway. I'm not into overclocking.
Thanks again.

Ditto.
I barely see any fps increase over my GF2Ti with N2002 and F12002 (only
games I play). :-(
Anyone want to buy a GF2Ti cheap?

> If I recall correctly, you use a fairly low screen resolution. With
those settings you won't see much difference. The GF3 and, even more-so,
the 4 begin to shine with higher screen resolutions. You probably would see
a big hit with your gf2 if you ran at 1280x1024, but the frame-rate loss
would be much less at that rez or even higher with the newer card.

Also, try turning on FSAA and other features like that - the GF3 is really
the slowest card that you can consistently enable features like that on.
Not necessarily stellar framerates, but higher image quality.
