11 MHz!!!! =0

The pixelation around the numbers isn't a reason to believe it's doctored because the pixelation occurs EVERYWHERE in the picture: a clear sign of a compressed image. If the pixelation only occured around the numbers, then it would be suspicious.

ATI stock worth getting

ATI is underpriced. However, it is probably at its value because in the Video Card market, the one on the top (Nvidia) is gonna have to be toppled over to lose. ATI isn't that far behind Nvidia, but in order to take over, Nvidia would have to collapse. ATI has a lot to gain with their next...

ATI stock worth getting

I have also been pondering getting ATI for awhile. I'm also in the market for some more NVidia, once they (hopefully) drop into the 60's again. ATI looks decent I think. They are not 3dfx. 3dfx never recovered from their merger with STB fully. Also, their VSA-100 chip was inferior(the need...

Help! How do I get a new pass-through cable for my Voodoo2???

I recently bought a Voodoo2 (among other things) from a guy at another forum. He sent most of the stuff I was buying for him, except manuals (which I don't really need), a 128MB RAM DIMM and the Voodoo2 Pass-Through and SLI cables. It has been over a month now with no reply. I periodically...

Board for P3?

Best boards for P3 (socket): ASUS CUSL2 (has onboard video) and ASUS CUSL2-C (no onboard video). I have the CUSL2 and it's the most stable, overclockable, versatile motherboard I've ever used. Go for the CUSL2-C unless you absolutely need onboard video (onboard video always sucks...

*Help* Putting a Fan on a V3 2000- should it suck or blow????

I think I'm gonna try blow (my first instinct... no pun intended!). I think I read that it's the best in this situation, but I can't quite rememeber. If the blue orb blows air onto the heatsink, it makes sense that another video card cooler would. The heatsink is quite small, and there's not...

*Help* Putting a Fan on a V3 2000- should it suck or blow????

I bought a very cheap fan that's the same size as my V3 2k heatsink. On my other video card (Radeon DDR LE) I put an old Pentium fan on it (486 fans work well too). Are you sure suck is the best? Many CPU fans blow onto the heatsink (it pushes the hot air out the sides of the heatsink and is...

Radeon LE

Always get newer (newest) beta Drivers. Check rage3d (link in above post). The 'supported' drivers are very outdated. If the newest beta drivers are messed up on your system (doubtful), then get the next newest ones. Personally, I'm running Win98SE with a Radeon DDR LE and I always get the...

Radeon 32MB DDR LE question

I have a radeon LE in Windows 98SE. It runs 100% stable (don't know why it would be unstable. It's better to re-install Windows for a new Video Card anyway). Go to www.rage3d.com to get the newest drivers/utilities. I use a program called 'Raid-On Tweaker' for overclocking and enabling...

*Help* Putting a Fan on a V3 2000- should it suck or blow????

I want to put a fan on my V3 2000 to overclock it. Should I have the fan blow air onto the heatsink or suck air off the heatsink for best results? Thanks for any help anyone can give me!

What is the difference in speed between a P3 450 and a Celeron 300a@450?

I just got a P3 450 Katmai (512k L2 cache) for cheap. I also have a Celeron 300A running at 450MHz. Both use 100Mhz buses. I would like to know which chip is faster, and how much faster it really is. I assume that the P3 450 is marginally faster than the 450MHz celeron. Input from anyone...

Monitor Flickering with a Radeon DDR LE

I have a Radeon DDR LE on a KDS VS195e 19" monitor. I used a V3 2k on this monitor for a year no problems. A month ago, I got a Radeon DDR LE. I used Raid-On tweaker to re-enable hyper-z. I put a fan on the heatsink, and clocked the Core-Memory to 166/166 and even 183/183 sometimes (I...

Is My Monitor dead? *Problem Solved*

Nope it's not the plug... well, it kind of is. I solved the problem. Damn, I can't believe I didn't figure this out!! I unplugged the computer (which booted fine) from its plug and plugged the monitor into its plug and it worked. Then I realized that on that computer, the power bar has 2...

Is My Monitor dead? *Problem Solved*

My 2 1/2 year old Viewsonic G790 19" monitor just did something it's never done. While booting up to Windows, the picture just cut and the power light went off (when it was still in the 'on' position). Now, when I push the power button on or off, I can never get the monitor to turn on -...
