Folks,
I need to upgrade the video card on my daughter's P.C. (PIII 550E)
to use it for lan GPL sessions etc. At the moment in Oz V3 3000 and GeForce
Mx cards are about the same price. What do you guys consider the wisest
choice for an upgrade (from TNT1)?. I'm using a V3 on my PIII 900 and it is
great for GPL and was going to buy another one for the other P.C. but can't
help wondering if an MX is a better way to go. Don't want to start a NVidia
vs 3DFX war, just some input from someone using an MX.
TIA
Phillip...
i'm very happy with my GeForce2 MX in GPL, N3, N4 demo, Nascar Heat, High
Heat Baseball 2001, NHL 2001, and Unreal Tournament.
if you're just playing GPL, the Voodoo may be better, but if you think you
might play anything else (ie, N4) i'd go with the GeForce.
just MHO..

The MX would be better without a doubt for any future gaming on that pc, and
with the d3d patch GPL looks very good.

I've had them both and the Geforce II MX is better for all the games. My
framerates improved in GPL, Nascar3, etc.
I would go with the MX by Hercules.
