I thought it was an easy task to choose a video card for my 1 Ghz Pentium III Windows 98SE pc. But I found the 3DMark results a bit inconclusive:
ATI Radeon 9600 XT
99:6370
01:5520
NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS
99:6587
01:3028
The older GTS is unexpectedly a bit faster with 3DMark 99. And as expected the XT is faster in 3DMark 01. So which of the above cards would you choose for a 1 Ghz Pentium III? I got faster (and slower) pc's so performance is not the most important factor but what about for example compatibility. Is one of the cards a better choice for later DOS games and (more importantly) Windows 98 games until around 2000 because of drivers or features?
