The bottom line:
Abit seems to have taken the same approach to the Siluro video cards that they do with their motherboards. The GT2 was stable, overclockable, and came packaged better than most cards on the market. The manual and bundle are excellent, an area lacking with many of the vendors today. The only weakness of the GT2 is the lack of Glide support, but Glide only games are becoming rare, and the GT2 made fine work of Unreal Tournament. Even with the GeForce on the market, not everybody can afford it, and the GT2 gives these gamers an option that doesn’t compromise image quality or speed. I would be hard pressed to recommend a Voodoo3 3500 or 3000 when the TNT2 offers the same level of performance and superior image quality.
