  • Ge-Force PCI?

    Are there any Ge-Force video cards that will fit into a PCI slot these days? Any names of products and links of where to buy them would be kool!
    Thanks,
    Josh


    I HATE FARIES-

      Like Wiggo said, there used to be some gf2MX cards, but it's been a while since I've seen one too. Check out eBay or the online store list <a href="http://forums.tweaktown.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=975" target="_blank">here</a>. I know that Jaton are one of the companies that make / made these cards though.

        They seemed to have disappeared when the MX200/400's came out for some reason but several of the places that I buy from had them but soon dropped from sight. The Hercules Kyro's are the only PCI cards that I can find now that have any performance but they are known to have some compatability issues with them. :smokin:

          I won a HP prebuilt computer in an online competetion. Its a P3-800 and it has 18MB onboard memory but it slows down the computer a great deal. Casue the stupid custom MoBo doesnt have an AGP slot im lookin around for a half decent PCI video card. Thanks Beefy ill have a look on ebay!

            Well PCI cards generally suk ( i would know i have one). I also had to take time to find a PCI card cos my POS gateway board had no AGP slot. Eventually i bought a TNT2 model 64, and it performed about as well as the onboard 8meg Riva128. gamedude sells MX400's in PCI, however they are more expensive and dont perform as well. If i were you i would look into a matrox card. The 3D performance of the G550 is equivalent to that of an AGP Geforce 2, and the 2D performance is much better, and it also has a PCI interface

              PCI cards may suck when compared to AGP ones but they beat the **** out of most onboard video options. :devil:

              Oh I found some PCI GF2MX400 64MB cards at Zone Computing. ;)

                    I suggest the VisionTek Xtasy GeForce4 MX 420. It has 64MB SDRAM and it kicks the crap out of the 16MB Voodoo 3 2000 I was using. :p

                      I have a GF2 32MB (PCI)...its does the job when playing CS...but i got it on a P3 933, 512 SDRam and got a 810 in my 3dmark...so in other words don't spend too much on it..if its gonna be a PCI card.: peace2:

                        Elsa Geforce2 based "Gladiac 511 PCI"

                        I have one and I love it.. but I am about to switch to AGP...

                        Pro's: great 3D and very functional. Twin display and S-Video out.

                        Con's: the company just burnt out.. so software updates dont come easy...

                        decent write-up on it @

                          PNY do a PCI GeForce4 MX420. I've just bought one but not installed it yet, I need a 35W power supply to run it. They are at www.pny.com

                            one thing to remember with pci videp cards is if u have a geforce or better, disable hardware TnL...this is bcos hardware TnL uses lotsa PCI/AGP bandwidth...:cheers:
