earlier thread (polite way of saying repost)
Paid big bucks for this card back in the day to get dual head AGP. Good 2D video.

acceptable if you don't plan on playing 3D games at all.

Well, a G450 can handle Quake 2. YMMV on half life. 😉

Doh! I can't believe I forgot the link. Corrected. I guess this is a repost. I think I read the previous post. I need to stop posting before morning caffeine... 🙂

really good card because it's output quality is very good.

too bad it's AGP. if it was the PCI version for FAR, I would get a few of them and stuff them in a system....6 or 8 monitors anyone?

G450 was late 2000. came out about the same time as the geforce 2. it was slower than the older G400 max (which was the fastst card around when the geforce256 came out)

I dunno about gaming, but I loved this card, I had it and used it for a good 2-3 years. The only game I did ever played was Q2, so whoever said Q2 will work = right. I duno about anything else... It was a great dual-head card back then...

what kind of fps does this thing get at 2000x1500 with 16xAF and 8xAA? 😉

 

[shl0791]

.2fps at 2000x1500 with everything on

LOL I was moving parts around in a computer last night with a 9800pro and couldn't get it to post. I bought this card a month ago and popped it in with a min config and got it up and operating. I left it in after I got everything straightened out and damn, I can't believe the 2d clarity for FAR.
