The Pro and the GTS are the same core, but at different core speeds. The correct name for the Pro is the Geforce GTSpro and therefore it is possible that this is indeed a normal GFpro. Did that make sense? BTW I have a feeling that MSI have revamped their GF2pro card. I have just got one...

My MSI G2Pro Plus-T64D(I believe this is the newer version iof the starforce) clocks at 248/505- As far as I know this far exceeds the Gainward. For my 1.33Ghz cpu I am top dog in both 3dmark2000(10780) and 3dmark2001(4678). This is with no alterations, or mods to the actual card(stock cooling)...

Try this direct link to the WIN98/ME version. A couple of retries should get you there.

I also got tired of waiting for the Nforce and plumbed for an ECS k7s5a. BTW do you think all these people buying the k7s5a will encourage ECS to make a more overclocker friendly BIOS? I've a feeliong that ECS are rather surprised at just how popular this board has been and may try to market...

260/366 with blorb(lapped) and ramsinks.

As yet there are no differences between the retail and OEM versions(other than supplied software).

You'll find the Videologic make the reference board for the Kyro2. Any driver releases between VL and Hercules have been identical, but have been released by VL first. Other than the extra 32mb, the only difference between the 2 is that the Vivid!XS comes with TVout as standard. BTW you can...

If they are the only sort of game that you are playing, then I'd call you silly to upgrade. Your current card is more than capable of playing just about any RTS that you could throw at it. If you were going to play the latest and greatest FPS, thewn my answer would be different. So I say stay...

I have a 32mb Kyro2 and I must say that its performance is more than comparable to the 64mb Hercules.-I have the AGP Videologic Vivid!XS(tv out). So far I haven't come across any game that taxes the memory limit what so ever! However you are right in what you say about avoiding PCI if at all...

I think you'll find that the dodgy textures are due to you enabling texture compression in games that don't support it. Or possibly in games that have it enabled in game.

As regards to comparisons to a GF2pro. In the UK you could buy a Kyro2 AND 1Ghz axiaY for the same price as a GF2pro, there you go T&L problem solved! ;)

In GLmark my Kyro2 beats an awful lot of GF2mx/GTS/Ultra!!!!!-sorry, but I had to add that as I'm fed up with Nvidia owners quoting 3dMark!

I run my Vivid!XS 32mb Kyro2 on an ABIT KT7, so I shouldn't imagine there will be any problems there. The Kyro2 is likely to gain mnost from future driver releases due to the relatively new nature of the chip. However the GF card is likely to be the most stable of the 3. I'm told that the ATI...

2 of the best sites I've found are HERE and HERE¬!

I personally would go the way of ATI omn that system.
