Title: Oh Yeah...MUCH better ;)
Post by: Sky Viper on April 02, 2001, 11:32:00 AM

Picked up a Duron 750, A7V133, & nice 300W case ($260).
Bumped my Off-Line FR from a High of 29, low of 1 to at least 59 and 27!
Gotta test it out around that heavy Ack Fire and smoke now!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Rest of sys:
Voodoo3 2000 PCI
SB Live!
10.2G (ATA66)HDD
128M PC100 RAM


At least now I can compete.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

If you replace the V3 with a newer card, you will be set for a long while

I kinda figured it like this:
A7V133...good for 18-24 Months. Will carry a 1.5G TBird which I will probably buy in a year or so.

Video will likely be the first move (while the wife ain't lookin  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) , then Memory, and the TBird last.
That should keep me within the stream, but not to far toward the rear.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

For now, my V3 is keeping me happy!

Rip...WOOHOO, lets fly baby!!!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

It sure is nice to be able to read the gages without zoom!
