It is exacly the same fast as 2000PV (in dos games like Doom - tested on Phil's benchmark set). Do you know what is the …

Just got ARK2000PV - They say that it should be faster in DOS than Tseng ET6000. EDIT: Checked DOS (Doom) performance and it's a little faster than both ET6000 and ET6100. But still ET6000 gives the best image quality in my opinion (good brightness and saturated colors) Batyra_ARK2000PY.jpg As next …

Thanks for replies. Memories on ET6100 are the same as on ET6000... what funny is that ET6000 is little faster than ET6100 in doom... I thought 6100 is faster. Both ET6100 I have are "dark"... compareing to S3 cards I own, Brightnes on Tsengs ET6100 issignificantly lower. Can I do something about …
