Hercules or ASUS GeForce 3 Card? Help!

[dowser]

Hello All

Is there a recommendation in a choice between the Hercules Prophet III GTS and the ASUS P2-V8200 Deluxe?

I ready to order my new system and this is the last decision - please help!

Thanks
Richard

I would go for the Asus, because of the extra features. Elsa's also good, and check in the Hotdeals forum. I think you can get it from Dell after a discount for $299

the Hercules looks cool...

But your computer case is not transparent!

Go with the ASUS, it has more features than you can wish for, and it's very reliable. Check the the "videocard database" thread for links to articles and comparisons.

I have the Elsa and it Ownz. But, between those two cards, get the V8200 Deluxe, it has alot of extra features. Plus, if you want to get picky, its ram is clocked at 3.8 ns versus the 4.0 of the Prophet.

However, the Prophet 3 is a cool looking card, and is pretty hard to find !! I was lucky to find my Gladiac 920 at a local EB, as most online retailers are sold out.
