Title: Video improvements
Post by: grizz on December 22, 2000, 06:16:00 PM

I've been looking at the ASUS v7700 GeForce2 deluxe for it's video in/out properties.

I presently am using a CL Graphics Blaster TNT2 Ultra with a P3 600.

Will I notice an improvement in fps with the GeForce? Or am I limited by my cpu? I'd like to put the TNT2 Ultra into my celeron 300 box and get that running too.

Thx in advance...any advice appreciated.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I'm sure you will see a nice improvement going to a geforce card, as well as you will be able to use FSAA.  I wouldn't recommend a geforce card with possibly the exception of the MX due to its price, to anyone running anything less than 600 mhz.
