What VIDEO CARDS are you running??? (For Freelancer i mean...)

  • I have a GF2 GTS, and this card should just be awesome for FL. But since I have some good connections to some graphics card producers, I´ll propably have either the next generation NVIDIA or even the next spring-edition graphics card by the time FL ships.

  • Currently ATI Rage 128 32meg agp. By the time Freelancer´s out I´ll probably have the ATI Radeon 64 AGP. That´s assuming the price comes down a bit. SBLive Xgamer, but pretty basic 2 speaker setup w/ subwoofer though. Sounds like Bargib´s raiding his kid´s college savings again! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> DOH! Stupid Tornado!

  • ROFL @ Boscoe. tisk, tisk, tisk....bargib. I may be replacing my ol´ TNT2U with a new card later, hopefully. Any suggestions? Price is NOT a factor. --------------------- &quot;My eyes....the goggles, they do nothing!!!&quot;

  • EB, You Rich Fool!!! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I may break down and get the Radeon (raiding my kids college funds....). If so, I´ll let you know. Sticking with ATI, liked the Rage 128 very much. Also, ATI is great about getting driver updates and special purpose drivers available. DOH! Stupid Tornado!

  • Who said i was rich? Im hoping to get a new video card by doing reviews. <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I had a ATi Rage Pro 4MB on my last computer. It was a Compaq <img src=smilies/icon_smile_sad.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> . After years of wondering why some games wouldnt work in 3d accelerated mode, i finally figured out that there were updated drivers. Sheeesh. --------------------- &quot;My eyes....the goggles, they do nothing!!!&quot;

  • LOL!!! Yea clever EB...very clever...I suggest the GeFORCE2 64mb AGP4X, that baby ROCKS! I´ve installed that card twice in a friend´s computer....and couldn´t resist playing my favorite 3D games on it...ohhhh mannnn! How does 137fps @ 1,024x786 on Quake3 timedemo sounds...not that I like the game but it´s a good 3D testing tool, but with this card it´s nothing! The card is aprox. $340...of most brand.

  • And did you say ATI Rage Pro 4mb??? That´s definetly going down the garbage-smasher, don´t hesistate! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> The Wing Commander WC of the 187th Elite German Vindicators Squadron.

  • But again it´s painful..I know, 4 years ago I got a $400 top-of-the-line Creative Labs 3D blaster 4mb SGRAM, PCI, the very fastest of it´s time, now it can´t do a thing in 3D, but I just couldn´t toss that $400 out-dated card in the trash, so I plopped it in my good ´ol P200MMX overclocked to a wonderful 225MHz w/128mb ram. But at least it´s an NT4 system, so no point of Direct3D acceleration here, but it does good OpenGL acelleration

  • Whoa, 3 posts in a row. Its a new record! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Yes, i said ATi 3D RAGE PRO 4MB. Sad, isnt it? --------------------- &quot;My eyes....the goggles, they do nothing!!!&quot;

  • Reading all those posts about <i>GeForce </i> cards makes me jealous! <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> You want to know what graphics hardware I´m using right now? Fine, here it is... <i>S3 Virge DX/GX </i> card with a <i>Diamond Monster 3DII </i> ! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_blush.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> God, I´m pathetic!! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_shy.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> -------------------- No one will hear your cry of death in the void of space!

  • For the heck of it I tried swapping my old Diamond Stealth III 540. Well, even though I deleted all the necessary files so my ATI would no longer be recognized, got the blue screen of death 4 times w/ 4 driver reloads. Now I remember why I ripped it out in the first place. I´ve never had much success w/ Diamond/Supra stuff. Anyway, back to smooth sailing with the Rage 128, and trash can for the Diamond. (unless of course anyone wants to buy it! Any takers out there????) <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> DOH! Stupid Tornado!
