I am in the market for a new video card for my K6-2 300-400 pc. It will be
running Win98 and possibly Linux/Unix. I will mainly be using business apps
such as Office 97-2000 and drawing programs (Corel Draw, no cad), as well as
Internet Explorer, Netscape, etc. I am also interested in 3D games, and
would like the card to last me for a while. Right now I am using the
"original" Voodoo 1 Rush chipset, and feel that is aging quite a bit. Being
a college student I am always budget minded, but I realize the graphics card
is one of the more important parts of a computer. (Other components can be
skimmed on) :)Please any recommendations/comments/opinions/experiences would
be greatly appreciated, and might benefit others on the list as well. Here
are the "main" choices that I am considering (there may be others of which I
am unaware):
TNT2 (Hercules, Diamond, etc.)
Voodoo3 (3dfx)
Savage 4 pro+ (Diamond, Hercules, etc.)
G400 (Matrox)
Thanks,
Chuck Hassenplug
