Nothing Fancy

Ok my current pc has what Beloc advisor calls a Diamond Monster Fusion AGP card (I know this is right cause I once deleted it's driver ). What exactly is this card. I know it's old but am building a new pc and I know all my fav games run on that card. So that is the least vid card I need. Just wondering what ATI would be equivalant. I think it has a 16mb vid memory. So does anyone know anything about this card.

You may have trouble finding a 16MB. I think the smallest amount you can get now is 32MB.

You may want to take a look at the 8500.

That's a 3DFx Voodoo Banshee. *ANY* ATI Radeon will run circles around that card unless your games are optimized for "Glide" instead of DirectX or OpenGL.

Glide is a proprietary 3DFx thing - and they are long out of business.
