Been running a TNT Pro 64 graphic card.
S'alright, 32mb jobbie.

But SR have a 64mb Sparkle Geoforce II64mb Nividia for £79.99.
And I got one tonight.

Oh lordy....sweet gaming heaven.
My old card was adequate, did a benchmark test and it came out at 800.
Did the same test on the new card?
2475.

3 times the speed and power.
All for less than £100.
You mentalist PC Owners really, really should get one if your not rocking a 64mb card.
The difference is stunning.
ALL my games on max detail with no slow-down at all.
And don't worry it's "Sparkle", it's still Nvidia.
It's still the shiniest, fastiest thing I've had in meh machine for yonks.

Now instead of playing games all night on the PC, I go to ma woman and play games all night.
Hur hur hur

If you have a PC. You have to buy the GeForce3 chip for about 249 quid.

Or, if you have a Mac with the GeForce3 as standard and you buy VirtualPC for 70 quid.

Ip dip dog..... you are not it PC.

Oh, it's 2. Is it worth getting the 2, or waiting until the 3 drops?

They won't. Gamecube will probably get Silent Hill as well.

I love resident evil.

Reaper[oV] \\ Commander keen . Again. says:
fed up with windows anyway, just installing linux...and I really want a mac now...

I feel so dirty..

True though, after using a dual G4 box with a flatscreen, I'd love to have one - PCs are good for me for playing about with, fun if you've got the time, but macs are a lot better at many things..

I just brought a Mac with it coming with GeForce3 as standard. I won't need to change that card for at least three years, by in which time I would have enough money from NOT buying upgrades for the PC I didn't buy to buy another new Mac.

Lifes sweet when you have a Dual Processor G4 with DVDR
