If I want to buy a RagePro (Turbo) AGP card for my Celeron 333 which one should I go for? Are there bigger differences? https://www.pc-schnulli.de/hardw/gkagp/gkagp_ati.html There are 8Mb SDRAM and SGRAM Versions. Don't know if chip/ram are always 75Mhz. If it's not 100% possible to tell which card to go for, perhaps it's easier the other way around which card to avoid?

thx!

EDIT: Just found this. https://www.vgamuseum.info/index.php/cards/it … rage-pro-agp-2x

SGRAM simulates dual ported behavior and is faster than DRAM for video cards

Turbo or no Turbo, i would avoid Rage Pro with edo, like 109-46200-00 and its also 4mb, not 8mb. Sdram vs sgram shoud be similar speed if clocks are same. SDRAM is cheaper to buy with 8MB , 4+4 SGRAM may look cooler and there is one option in the Rage Pro Tweaker for it. About Rage Pro Tweaker, someone knows what ati driver version works with mip mapping disable option, so far if i use this option, its not activating at its Direct3D setting and Vsync option is working with DX5 drivers (not newer).

Does Rage Pro uses SGRAM features? Re: Your opinion on the ATi Rage IIC and Rage Pro
