Im looking for a new video card and think the
Gainward Geforce2GTS/400/64 for 130$ is a good buy (wont buy a gforce 3 cause the price) but i dont know anything about that card so im wondering if anyone have it and had any problems with it ?
I never buy the newest and top end stuff cause the price falls to half after only 6 to 8 months lol, thats why i always go for the next best stuff

and the diffrence isnt that big either.

I heard the PRO was better and I have seen the PRO for $142. But since I do not have either take that for what it is worth.

Good luck and let us know what you decide!

Toms Hardware site has a review of it, I have the Gainward GF2 MX-400 64mb and I'm happy with its performance in AH, IL-2, and WB3.

Go for a GTS instead of an MX (400 or 200). Even better is the PRO, which is a GTS that basically is overclocked somewhat.

The GTS has much better memory on the card and therefore will allow higher framerates and higher (with playable framerate) resolutions.

Don't spend a bunch more for 64MB of ram, no current game (or even future ones for some time) are going to need more than 32. If you find you can get a GF2 GTS card with 32 MB of ram, and an MX 400 with 64 MB of ram, pick the GTS, it will be a LOT faster.
