Chicken Soup for the Graphics Pipeline Soul

by lordquench , Jul 14 '00
Pros: Low Price - Full Graphics Pipeline
Cons: Not the latest 3D accelerator
This card came to be mine in a funny way. I was helping a friend upgrade his computer. When the 3D Prophet came in, I discovered that his AGP video was built onto the motherboard. We had to order another card for him, but I didn't see any reason to...

3d prophet

by wannabe3 , Apr 20 '00
Pros: great card
Cons: better one out there
Best videocard I've ever owned. I also tried (and returned) the Creative Labs Annihilator. The Annihilator caused colored stripes on many of my windows and start button on Windows desktop, and other weird stuff. I also tried (and returned) a Creative...

Like it a lot

by Polydwarf , Mar 07 '00
Pros: Speed, Colors
Cons: Price
This card, while expensive, is a great card for any hardcore gamer.
You look at the price tag of the Prophet 3d, and wonder why it's so expensive, and you would tend to move on to another card.
But, you'd be passing on a great card to someone...

3d Prophet on a Low-End computer

by Poga3 , Sep 26 '00
Pros: On a higher end computer, vastly improves graphics perfommance
Cons: Has no effect on slower computers
My aging PII 233 just won't cut it anymore. Even at the lowest resolutions, new games all look god-awful, and my framerates are atrocious. In desperation, I bought the 3d prophet, and I see absolutely no difference in performance with any software. I...

The Greatest GeForce Card

by kammerer , Mar 15 '00
Pros: great 3d and 2d graphics
Cons: a little pricey
The 3D Prophet is the best GeForce card to date. Not only does it come with Nvidia's great geforce 256 chipset but it is from a company that is highly regarded in the graphics card industry. They make some of the best grahpics cards around and this is...

Buy if you don't have a GeForce

by evaldemar , Mar 28 '01
Pros: Cheap $, Good video card. Actual drivers that work great.
Cons: Hercules Tech Support.. what else. Only 32 MB.
I bought this GeForce256 32MB video card in Jan. '00. Excellent card at the time for $149! I am a GAMER! I pushed this card with all I had with my Athlon 600 MgHz & 256 MB RAM. The only problems in games I had was at HIGH resolution, 1024x768. Some what...

Super sensitive card.

by fidelity , Apr 05 '01
Pros: Good first gen GeForce card.
Cons: Very heat sensitive board. Over use the card and it will suffer.
I got this card when the first GeForce 256 came out. For the first few weeks it functioned well. But then about a few months down the road problems started. The card turned out to be very heat sensitive (even with the on-board fan!) after 10 plus hours...

3D Prophet Wails

by sage420 , May 01 '00
Pros: Wicked fast, accurate, and detailed accelleration in all graphix fields, DDR
Cons: runs hot, expensive
I have tested serveral, geForce based cards by Creative, Leadtek, and Hercules, but the Prophet takes the cake.

The geForce chipset delivers stunning graphics accelleration, accurate texturing and swift rendering. With the 64MB of on board...

Speed!

by logikz , Mar 24 '00
Pros: SPEEED, QUALITY
Cons: EXPENSIVE
Yes, raw SPEED is what this card has, but did I mention that it looks great as well. This is far and away the absolute best 3D consumer graphics car on the market today, for any price. This card can belt out framereates that will make you cry. Included...

Solid Card

by LordSegan , Aug 14 '00
Pros: Cheap, reasonable speed
Cons: Yesterdays tech
I bought a 3D Prophet SDR for 279 the day the arrived in Los Angeles. Heheheh. The Porphet has proven to be a very "solid" card. Because the Prophet uses fairly fast 5.5ns Ram, I was able to overclock it to 135/190. With the new 6.18 drivers,...
