    I Have the chance of getting a GeForce2 MX PCI for nothing,Would it be better than the
    Voodoo3 3000 AGP which I am using at the moment?
    My system is...
    Gateway Performance 500
    Pentium 3
    500mhz
    128ram

    You would be far better off sticking with your Voodoo3. I would be happy to pick up that Geforce2 and dispose of it for you in an environmentally friendly manner.

    Only joking. The Geforce is a better card.

    Certain flavours of the MX come in PCI form.

    i've a V3 2000 and with my config i get 90fps on the demo127 in Q3, i have a friends hercules prophet mx for the last week and with the same settings i get 140fps, so there is a good bit of difference bewteen them.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    <off topic>
    How do you make Quake3 run faster than 90fps? It seems to be capped at 90...

    i have a v3 3000 with tv out, but its in pci form if you want it
    at least, i think its pci, must check that...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    actually, if it was a pci, i would have stuck it inmy other machine as it only has a v3 2000, so i guess its probably an agp, if youre interested?
