Katarhyne Posted March 14, 2002 Tyan Thunder K7, complete board (S2462NG, without SCSI or SMBus) with power supply and 1GB registered DDR SDRAM. $400 or willing to trade for nForce with two 512MB PC2400 CL2 DIMMs. This is way over $750 worth of hardware. E-mail me @ kyutika@datarecall.net if you're interested. 0 Share this post Link to post

dsm Posted March 14, 2002 Don't ask. I already asked him why he didn't wait until "Doom 3" before upgrading, but he just said that he couldn't wait. Why he picked GeForce IV is a different question, which I forgot to ask him. 0 Share this post Link to post

dsm Posted March 14, 2002 Well, John Carmack stated that the card didn't deserve to be called "GeForce IV" and further made it clear that GeForce III would run "Doom 3" better. Just curious: How do your games (and programs in general) run with your new vid card Maonth? 0 Share this post Link to post

I haven't got it yet. 0 Share this post Link to post
Crendowing Posted March 15, 2002 All I have is crappy Direct3D...and my friend is getting a GF2 MX soon, which is still better than my gfx capabilities. 0 Share this post Link to post
LorD BaZTArD Posted March 15, 2002 I can't beleive this...he said don't buy a budget geforce 4, the GF4mx, because all it is is an accelerated GF3, He did NOT say avoid the gf4 all together...I'm amazed and how many people are boycotting the card due to that statement...ah well 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted March 15, 2002 Wasn't the GF4 MX even slower than a GF3? 0 Share this post Link to post

boris Posted March 15, 2002 Originally posted by Lament Even slower? No man, that would be just too obscene. According to some tests I've seen, a GF4 MX is slower than a GF3 Ti500. 0 Share this post Link to post
LorD BaZTArD Posted March 15, 2002 yes, I believe tarin may be right.. but that's why its budget, although, for a budget card, it's still pretty good, just not for Doom 3. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fredrik Posted March 15, 2002 And Maonth's got the HighEnd one, of course, because he's a rich professional game developer (praise him)! :D 0 Share this post Link to post
