If you are going for a geForce4 on a P-III, why not just go all the way for a FX-5XXX card?
I understand if someone would pick a geForce2 card, for a more correct P-III build (600 to 800mhz).
Or even better.... Pick a TNT2 Ultra 32mb, or the best V3 avaliable. (just to keep it in the 90's)
On the other hand, someone should clearly pick a 5500/5900 card over a 4.Eighter do an era correct build, or pick parts for a maxed out build, within the spectrum of a P-III-Build.
I failed to see where it says "era correct build", but speaking of it...Why limit yourself? Why not to mix the best from both worlds? Many of you pick "era correct" parts, but still come up with an excuse to have a modern case or a modern hard drive or a modern CDRW/DVD drive...I don't get why people go crazy about crappy TNT cards when you can hit a jackpot by going with one of the GeForce series. May be this person doesn't have much money to burn and he could really cut corners with the GeForce4 instead of the GeForce2. It will also allow him to max graphics out in many OpenGL based games. Both chipsets either the GeForce3 or the GeForce4 are superior to the GeForce2. Later on he could pair a such card with Athlon XP or Pentium IV. A GeForce4 based video card Is future proof it's like a good investment. Who cares about a fail such as the FX series? I don't even know if you can pair this crap with a slot 1 motherboard since it has the AGP 8x bus. At the end of the day it comes to whatever he can get. Any GeForce card will work.
Wow!!! Whatever did I say or do to piss you off. 😳
Don't eat stuff off a 15 year old never cleaned cpu cooler.
