according to MuFu, a respected guy on Rage3D.com and Beyond3D.com forums, the ATI R420 will probably be an 8 pipeline VPU, not 12 pipelines as widely expected. from what I've read, the R420 was targeted at providing 2x the speed of the R300 (Radeon 9700 Pro) that was released in 2002. I'll post...

What are the ATI IGP 320M Specs ? (Memory, GPU ...) ? AN other question : What is better : 64 Mo Shared or 32 Mo Not Shared ? Thanks. kernel_panic

Can I connect the card directly to the psu or do I have to follow in instructions in the user manual? The reason I am asking is that I am using only SATA hard drives in my new system, and they have a different power connector. TIA Rogue

My system: W98SE, 1Ghz P-3, 512Ram, 256Mb L2, 2 Large HDDs, AIW (Rage) 128 32mb, DVD+/-RW 4x, ASUS CUSL-2 mobo (ATA 100/133). From what I have read, with care this system can successfully capture, edit video input and burn dvd-r's. My two main concerns: 1. The usability of the Rage card for...

How noisy would is the cooling system of the mentionned asus card ? Any happy owner ? LS

i have come to the conclusion that my 9700np may be overheating , as it will lockup, switch monitor to standby(this seems weird) or reboot machine, have upgrade my PSU and fitted a artic cooler to it , what else can i do ? doing my bloody head in now :) ideas?

I just purchase and installed this card. It now will not let me adjust the agp . It tells me that it is in a pci slot and that the agp port is at 0. When I change it to 4x or 8x, it always reverts back to 0. My motherboard is a 4x , 8x board. I checked in the bios and it says that 8x is...

Or, to put it another way, why would a tire company sell tires with a nail already stuck in the tread? My new AIW 9000 does a great capture job straight off the satellite. So I started to convert some of my older VCR tapes to DVD and the capture was horrible. Kept looking for a bad cable. I...

In a previous thread I read some benchmarks for 3DMark2001 with the same specs I have but I am way low. Barton 2500+ 1.83 GHz (166FSB) R96000XT 500/650 MHz -Default 3DMark03 - 3900 3DMark01 - 12300 UT2003 : 173 / 74

you could do a search on nvidea in the registry, followed by a liberal deletion of everything nvidea. Delete nvidea components from the system32 folder. i would (and did) start with the CD drivers that came with the card. Then I went to the ATI website and DL'ed the current drivers. To bad Nvidea...

I have a Nvidia FX5200 and it works fine for NHL 2004, and that card is a lot more powerful then mine, so I assume it would kick ass. wrote in message ... Hi, Is a Radeon 9600 Pro or XT powerfull enough to play games like FIFA and NBA...

Hey, I got the Sapphire Atlantis 9800 pro and ran the benchmarks. They are not impressive and others with the same parts are 30% better than mine without overclocking. While things are running fine I wonder why. Where is my bottleneck?? Will nForce2 help? It will handle my CPU and RAM. I hate to...

It seems to play the new Deus Ex invisible wars game (and most likely DoomIII etc).., I gotta upgrade from my geforce2 MX card.. (Tis a sad day indeed)... Looking to spend around or under $150 Like like the Geforce 4200 is a good choice... but I was wondering what Nvidia and ATI...

Anyone here have any luck getting a Radeon 9500 Pro to work on a KT133a motherboard. I remember I managed to get mine working once, for about a week, then never again. Supposedly, the Radeon 9500 Pro should work on such a motherboard (since the specs just state and AGP 2X, 4X or 8X...

Will this card fit a half-height slot? Thx. -- Robert J. Salvi, Ambiance Acoustics http://www.ambianceacoustics.com San Diego, CA USA (858) 485-7514

I'm not up to date on these new monitor technologies. Google isn't helping much. Can someone please explain the difference between LCD and TFT technology? Do both of these types of monitors use the DVI output jack on video cards? Are either of these flat panel alternatives equal to a good CRT for...

My intention here is *not* to start a flamewar, but if merely a question that can only be answered by posing it to both ng's. Having recently upgraded from a Ti4600 to a Radeon 9800 Pro and also having setup a friend's PC with a 9800 Pro too, I have to say I'm surprised at the lack of raw...

Hello, I need a videocard that can have 768x1024 in stead of 1024*768. I know nvidia can do this with 'nvRotate' which turns a screen 90°. Since ATI is a bit faster than the GeForce, i'm more in favor for the ATI. The only thing i don't know is that it can turn it's screen 90° to have...

Do you lose any performance or color fidelity when you use a monitor/mouse/keyboard switching device (two PC's using one keyboard, mouse and monitor)? I have one PC I'm using for graphics and I'd like to set up another PC for gaming and use my existing monitor for both.... THANKS! -- Steve...

I have the Radeon 7500 AIW card and have a problem with TV out. The pc dispay comes up just fine on the TV, but when I play videos inside of Windows Media Player, Quicktime or Premiere, only the program itself is displayed---not the video itself. I'm pretty sure this is a fairly easy fix, but I...
