The GeForce FX card SR sell will be one of the worst FX cards available. It only has the 500mhz DDR RAM, so will run quite slowly in comparison to the real models which have 1ghz DDR2 RAM.

Yeh, the RAM is only for storing textures in. The more RAM you have on your videocard, the higher quality textures you can have in your game. Give me as much texture memory as you want, I have a program that will always eat the lot of it :O/

Anyone heard good/bad things about Acorp mobo's?

Has anyone seen the new graphics card in the new SR mag. The Geforce FX 256MB.


Not as though, any game developers can even begin to utilise the power of a 128MB or even a 64MB.

Not out over here in the UK yet, but looking at about £300 upon its release in the near future.

Not sure, it was a mention on a forum.

I'm glad. Is the model available online, or is it in an article?
