Video Card

[Juju]

For All - What is the Boards opinion on ATI Radeon 64MB DDR Video Card. Gaming is one of my considerations. If you wish refer to:

This is for a friend who is custom ordering their next computer. Many Thanx

Personally I usually steer clear of brand new technology, but the Raydeon looks to be the King of the Hill til the GeForce 2 Ultra is available. There are some strange anolomies reported with Raydeon's 16 bit graphics that, thus far have not been fixed with new drivers, but in 32 bit gaming it's the card to beat in anything over 1024 X 768 resolution.
I would go with a GeForce 2 GTS or would hold out for the Ultra version rather than jump on the "brand new" Raydeon bandwagon. This is just my personal opinion though... I'm sure it's not a bad card.

Tiretool - Thank you so much for the comments. Any views are good views when your trying to purchase computer components.
New Topic. I have asked this twice with other Forums on this site but never got an answer.
Every now and then a Translate button appears at the bottom of the page. i. e. Translate to German, etc. However, the button comes up fewer times than it appears. Is there a navigation I could do to bring up the Translation button at my command?

Hmmm.......you got me there. I'd try asking this question once again in Windows 95/98's forum. They would have a better chance at giving you a right answer on this topic. Sorry I couldn't help.

What did you decide about a video card?

Hi Tiretool - Have print outs of excellent Posts, catalogs and Web site advisories heaped on my desk. Had to do a wedding last night, so Posted queries while I was in stages of dressing. So just now starting count down of puting all in front of me for analyzing.
Thanx for taking a peek at translate button issue. I note on ths forum it seems to appear more often than not.
