The first game will not run, we never forget .....

--- Hello, guys ....
I have a sad story to tell ......
Just today (07/08 / 2002) I downloaded the demo of the game BATMAN: VENGEANCE. MORCEGÃO installed, read the readme-bat of my life I saw that my machine has the capacity bat-p / run the game and off I went .....
Guess
Not run ..... The reason My card is a Voodoo 4 4500 and, according to the game hissed as I understood it was because she (the board) does not support 32-bit color.
I was happy, thought that this day ( not run certain game) still would take, since I recently installed the DukeNukem M edida P rovisória (Manhattan Project) and was round in bixo 800x600x16 bit.

Voodoozeiros on duty (if any still left) .... the board is great, dukaralho, but it's already showing signs of tiredness, unfortunately ....
The way will be put into his pocket, and pay 168 bucks for the GeForce 3 Ti200 with 128 ram. < BR>
With that I still have a video card .... let see .... about 3 months Yeah phodda it, huh
Hardware manufacturers launching new products all the time ..... software producers requiring these products to the "proper functioning" .... and the last end (seems to Planet Hemp) We, the poor users, victims of the Dollar.
you nuts .... I guess I'll have to rewire my XT WordStar, dBase and Lotus 1-2-3 and play Kitten (alley cat).
But do not think I will leave the voodoo taking dust in a drawer, no sir!
I install the damned in another PC and put here for kids to play Quake 3. It will be hilarious to play in Q3 net (never had that opportunity because I never had a second PC capable of running bixo).
That .... here is my story, my protest, my comedy and my drama ... Hugs to all


--- It ... you can not predict the future!
In late 2000, a friend of mine wanted a 3D card to run any game for a long time, and that was not too expensive ... I pointed him to buy a Voodoo3 3000 AGP.
But, three months later, came the end of 3DFX! So what you have seen what happened right
However, if I had given him to buy a TNT2 Ultra, then it would be running any game to date!

--- Since you're unhappy with this situation, you may protest as follows: do not buy a Geforce! The guys from nvidia bought 3DFX completely abandoned and users of voodoo. If today there is anything new drivers for voodoo, because there is some user groups that are very grating to the drivers 'unofficial'. If not for them, their Voodoo4 (which must have cost a note), today is not worth a pack of crackers maria!
If I was also an owner of voodoo who had been wronged by nvidia surely I will boycott! Thankfully, there are many good boards out there without being nvidia like ATI for example, or even the SIS! In particular, replacing the GF3 Ti200, I will indicate a Radeon 7500. ---

Is .... VooDoo cost me 4 a cocoa .....
This is Radeon "quickie" A cannon My V4 was .... : Cry:
SiS Seriously .... today I just saw those AGP with 8 megs without sink, or those "Orríveis" onboard.
SiS there any that matches the processing power in these GF3 or Radeon Never heard of it .... but I am not supplied with fresh news all the time.
Hugs to all.

--- If you want to buy one from another brand just because Nvidia bought 3dfx silly I think, who will be the loser will be you, not the nvidia.
The culprit was to be bought by 3dfx Nvidia, no one told them to sell.
We already know that a GeForce MX440 is better than a Radeon 7500 and that no one discusses. Now if you take a Geforce3 Ti200 does not compare.
So much so that today, Gefoce4 Ti4200 is the best 3d card with good cost-benefit ratio. --- Not

Manjo very 3D card, but I know, a Radeon 7500 delivers performance greater than the GF3-Ti200, but smaller than the GF3 Ti500. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
As the SIS, it has greatly improved over that old "decelerating 3D" call SiS6326. Today there is SIS315, which has a modest performance (just below the GF2-MX400 and Radeon 7200), but the cost / benefit ratio is very good. Recently launched the SIS XABRE, but this will be high performance, and soon to appear in Brazil.

--- Maybe yes, even. But the problem was not that ...
What I think is absurd, it was the nvidia users have simply dropped the plates without any support from 3dfx. This was a great lack of respect for users, who left severely damaged. For video cards, updated drivers are essential. Cease drivers means drafting the "scrapping" the end of life of these plates.
I buy nvidia, got my TNT2, and maybe I have a Geforce in the future. But making an assumption, if I were an owner of a voodoo 3/4/5, I just trade it for a nvidia if they really had no other choice. It is not "revenge by the end of 3dfx." Just think for a change a 3dfx nvidia would agree with what they did!

--- When you see a 400 xabre your opinion will change.

--- Yeah, I saw a little sign and she is really good ... --- Look

3dfx is not sold to Nvidia, it was just damaged by Nvidia and waited to pay compensation for damages that she was to manufacture the chip and the board ... Well
this was the story I knew, if I'm wrong correct me ... --- Hey

kra ...
does the following ... buy a Radeon 8500 which puts GF3 in my pocket and still kills any GF4 MX ... and cost-effective it is also good ...

To you --- 500 more gambling is that the radeon 8500 ... ---

Neither here nor in China, see for yourself the bechmarks.
This Radeon 7500 is a direct competitor of Geforce4 MX440, but never a Geforce3 can see, the Radeon 7500 at all to lose a GeForce3 Ti200
---
Ae best guys custoxbeneficio SIS 400 XABRE the best Radeon 9700 still naum arrived but already showed his strength and with that I leave a question would be happening nVidia with what happened with 3dfx For each day that passes I see a smaller market purchases GeForce


Thanks!!

--- I just say one thing: Radeon 8500 Radeon 8500 @ LELE r0x! Low price for a great card
