get some more ram first, then get a good video card. I think that n2 will be rendition ready, meaning it will support the new rendition video card that sierra is puttin out. I don't know how much of a difference this will make over say a stb 128 that is not rendition ready maybe someone who knows a little more will help us both out there. I think I saw the stb 128 for 150 bucks at best buy. STB also has a new card out also but I didn't really look at it. Hope this helps, mick in Tampa -- ______________________________________________________________________ | ____ ___ ___| | Mike Schreiner |CNSRL ADMIN. | ---\ / / /__ | |http://pages.prodigy.com/CNSRL | --\ / /---/_ | | "Mick" on Hawaii |Earnhardt Rules!!| --\/ / / | |_______________________________|_________________|_____________/______|

Hi, I can't wait for Nascar 2 to come out, but I have a question. I have Nascar Racing and I can't play it in SVGA mode cause I only have a 1MB video card. And even when I play it in VGA mode, I can't have all the Graphics on. I have a Hewlett Packard Pavilion With a Intel 150MHz Pentium, 16MB RAM, 6X CD-ROM, Accelerated 64-bit PCI local bus video aand like I said, a 1MB Video RAM card. Now I know that Nascar 2 will need a 2MB video card to play in SVGA mode and full graphics. So my question to everyone here is...What do I need?? What is the best video card out there for these types of games? I have about $500 to play with. So can anyone tell me what is the best one out on the market? And if I need anything else, (cause I'm not sure and computer smart) Please tell me. Any info, help would be great. PLEASE! THANKS!!! MATT

I have a P133 with only 1 mg video and 24 mg edo and it runs great in svga with only grass and concrete textures off. The only thing I would suggest is get a good wheel and pedal set if you don't have one. You can get a T2 for around $99-$129 or a TSW (is that right?) for much more (Don't remember the price, just remember it was out of my range). John "What do you mean I don't have a horn ?
