Test system - HP PIII 800, 48X cd rom, 64mb ram.pWell, I was impressed by this card. It preformes well, and wont break the bank. ( I got it 4 [price] bucks)- I had to do TONS of research. pI play alot of Diablo 2 and space simulators. This card preformed flawlessly in Freespace 1 and 2, when it got used to the game. Diablo 2 had some skips in it, but you could still play the game very easily without getting fustrated. The skips were minor in the most intense part of the game, when you get surrounded. The graphics were great, and it improved 2d windows preformance.pInstalation was easy, my first time installing anything and it WAS very easy. Im taking the card off of this coamputer and putting it on the one im building. pOverall, this is a great card that I am very happy with. If you cant afford a V5, get this card. Its great. I highly reccomend it. great card if you only have PCI slots.

This video card is great. It is very easy to instal and works well with almost everything I use. The only problem I have with it is the HORRIBLE graphics that come out of the Tiger Woods golf games from EA. I have both Tiger 98 and 2001 and this card doesn't work with either of them. It looks terrible and EA claims it is all due to the 3dfx card. All of the other games and applications that I use work wonderfully with it.

Well bid farewell to 3DFX. I bought this card after my wife and I saw what kind of graphics the 810 chipset produces (horrible). I installed it in about 8 mins. The drivers had no conflict at all. I was going to get the voodoo 5500 but the compaq case wouldn't allow it. I am very pleased when I play simulators on it. I don't know how Unreal tournement plays or Quake III but the image quality is superb on all my sims. It is better then the nvidia geforce 2mx based cards. We all know that nvidia has bought out 3dfx I just hope they keep making this card! Buy it if you can find it.

Forget the Annihalator GeFORCE2. This is the card! Unless of course you have more to spend on the Voodoo 5 5500, but thats 50 bucks more and this runs just perfect! I could not reccomend anything more since I upgraded from my Intel chipset. This is everything but worse! Try playing Diablo II or Unreal tournament and have Frame rates at 20 per second.... then upgrading to htis and gettin 80+. Now thats quality! In comparison to this card, my old Intel one is probably a 1 star. Go buy this now! You will not regret. Best video card, and video card company bottom line!

Installation: Very easy to install. The documentation is very clear and easy to follow. It shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to hook it up and get it working. No dip switches, no jumpers, just Plug and Play and restart your machine. pConfiguration: In my case, the default settings looked just fine. But if you require tweaking you got the 3dfx Tools in your Taskbar where you can control the most used features, such as resolution and color settings. Advanced settings such as antialiasing, alpha- blending and detail bias can also be changed using the tools menu. An excellent Help tool is very useful to understand the purpose of every video setting.pPerformance: It was noticeable immediately. I tested it with games such as King's Quest, Mask of Eternity, which had the option of using the 3dfx card and it looked much nicer and performed much faster. BIG improvement there. I also noticed an overall improvement when running MS Windows Media Player 7, which used to take most of my resources, now it runs smoothly and the visualizations look the way they are supposed to. The best thing about it is that it was compatible with everything I tested it on. I'm using a PII 350, 128MB RAM with a Creative DVD and Windows ME and it works quite smoothly and with no glitches.pObservations: I had to tweak my emulator settings in MAME and ZSNES to be able to play these DOS games. But I got them to work in no time.pThis card brings an overall performance improvement to your system plus it is completely stable. You can not ask for more at this price level.pFive stars and 100% recommended
