was planing on buying a Geforce 2 Ti but finally managed to get my hands on Dec/Jan issue of PC world and in the readers choice awards thingy the Matrox Millenium G450 was rated higer than the Geforce 2's. Is the matrox card better or just popular.
planning to use the card mainly for gaming wat do u reckonmend?

33060 2002-01-27 10:12:00 Definately a Geforce for gaming, matrox are really grunty on 2d, and used for CAD etc, but for gaming you want a hard core 3d board, get a Geforce 3 if you're devilishly rich, a GF3 Ti if your well off, and if you want bangs for bucks, nothing has (or ever will) come near a Geforce 2 MX 400 64 MB...

Unless ofcourse you can afford an ATI Radeon 8500(retail)

33062 2002-01-27 11:06:00 Go for the GF2 TI, top value for money. Performance wise apart from the Ultra it is the fastest GF2 you can buy. Go for the leadtek or the gainward or the MSI if you want video in. I just replaced my MX SH Pro with a Titanium and am very happy with the performance, the ATI is also a very good card but like the GF3 the price tag jumps up a bit. You can pick up a Titanium for around $320 for a 64meg DDR with TV out. Guest (0)
