Re: Games to test for comparison

Posted on 2021-05-09, 21:47

Good ideas, also upon looking at some prices, and comparing specs, I think I'm going to look for a 754 PCIe board so i can use the same Athlon 64 3200 and 1gb of ram, but save myself money with getting the cheaper pcie versions of said cards, it should still be a fairly even comparison, because from …

Games to test for comparison

Posted on 2021-05-08, 20:00

So I'm putting together AGP cards to test on my Athlon 64 3200 Socket 754 build, so far I've got Radeon 9700 Pro, Radeon 9800 Pro, Geforce 6600, and X1600 Pro but i want to test lots of cards in that bracket to see how it breaks down years later. But what games, I've got 3dmark 01/03/05 to test with …

Re: Video card upgrade for A64 X2 4400+

You've got me curious about some of ATI's AGP cards, so I tossed my x1600 Pro into my XP 2800 and im going to see how it compares to a 9800Pro then also compare it to an AGP 4350 It would be interesting to see where they stack up, because the 9800Pro and x1600 need external power, but can the …

so the only issue game i really see is NFS:U2 its slow on cards from 2004, even the mighty x800 is slow with it, id look at an x1900GT AGP minimum I ended up buying the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 3650 512MB AGP GDDR3 card on ebay as it was the more reasonably priced card. Was CAD$70 shipped. Hopefully …

Re: Savage 4 is it useful for anything?

I mean wouldn't that Riva128 still be way under powered with a 700 MHz Athlon? There's a Geforce2 MX400 listed on ebay right now for 17 bucks shipped that seems like a nice pairing for that system. I'm sure you could find other cards of a similar vintage around that price as well. it is, Ive got …

Re: Radeon X850XT and Windows 98SE problems

Posted on 2021-04-26, 13:25

I think what your running into is that Cat 6.2 was meant for x800 series or x850 series using the native AGP gpu, but the x850 XT AGP card is using the PCIe to AGP bridge chip, R420 is native AGP aka x800XT, but R480 is PCIe native, and with the bridge chip is called R481. That may be your issue, …
