That's exactly what he's saying and I agree.
My macheen was built for GPL and I still run the original thriller 8meg card,
on a 300/450 celeron, abit mobo, 128pc100
And have tested v3000 (inc a friends v2 sli) and it was excellent but not for
me worth the upgrade. In fact I am building a slave macheen and have been
reading about all the horror stories regarding all the "hot" cards out right
now, got to have this driver here and that patch from there etc ad nuaseum....
so I am seriously considring another thriller, no patches from here or there
and no driver this or that but a simple install. Keep in mind that papy code (
nascar, n2 n99 , indy, icr2 etc) is originally written with the rendition chip
in mind and 3dfx was added later so their experience with rendition makes it a
great choice for GPL.
