Hot Hardware K2 Review

New DirectX 8 beta build 648

I thought the Hothardware did a nice fair job in the review. Nice 3dmark scores....


Stomped MP review

Good news to all V5 owners all of his work was done on a 800, V5 here is what he had to say:



<< The graphics in the game set a very high standard as far as detail is concerned. Textures are photo realistic, and characters look almost real. The best part is that it does not require a super high-end system to get the detail. I was playing on an 800MHz system with a Voodoo 5 5500. The graphics details were turned up all the way and I never found a moment where the game was noticeably slowed. That is not to say that you won?t want a speedy system to get the most enjoyment out of the game?s graphics, but the requirements are not as staggering as one might think. >>




Finally Extreme Looks at all of the Graphics
ET 3d review including k2, GTS, V5, ATI, TNT2, ect

&quot;We must admit that our experience with the 3D Prophet 4500 was a pleasant one. The card installed without incident, had excellent image quality, was compatible with every game and hardware platform we threw at it and is an excellent performer especially considering the low price. Some users may be concerned that the lack of Hardware T&amp;L and other DirectX 8 features may shorten the lifespan of the 3D Prophet 4500. It handled Dronez and 3D Mark 2001 just fine though, and they are a good example of what game developers have in store for us in the coming months. If you are in the market for a good mid-range gaming card, you are short changing yourself if you don't consider the 3D Prophet 4500. We give the 3D Prophet 4500 a HotHardware Heat Meter rating of...&quot;
