GTS is a lot faster than any MX card. More mem does NOT mean more speed, it just lets you run a higher resolution. GTS, Pro or Ultra are all good :) Rafe Mc On Wed, 3 Oct 2001 00:38:55 +0100, "Semi" <[email hidden]> wrote: >Getting a new one soon.....geforce2 > >should I go for the 64mb card or a 32mb GTS version? > >playing GPL .N3,N4 GP3 etc?? >

Geforce 3 cards are now down to $300. Why buy a GF2? If you must......then get an ULTRA or PRO only....GTS is slower...I just removed one from a system that ran N4 crappy (removed it for that reason). Although, it did run GPL "okay"...but not great. Of course...you needn't buy either....unless you have a P3-800 and up...minimum! Without that.....these vid cards would be a waste of money. (You probably already know that.....but some others visiting this newsgroup might not). Regards, Tom
