MSI StarForce GeForce2 Pro -OR- Gainward cardexpert PRO/450

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).
Having said that I may just have been lucky and got a good card, but who knows! 😉
 
Had my Gainward Geforce2 Pro/450 for about 2 weeks now. I haven't really played that much with the OC of the card. I have it set to 230/450 and things are running smooth. My system will not allow me to overclock the CPU, but so far this card has been running stable. The card itself it awesome to look at, but once it's in your case I don't think it matters much. I'm happy with my card, but now wish I would of waited to get a Geforce2 Titanium. Not much performance difference now, but I bet newer drivers will give more.

Sounds like these cards (newer ones) are campairable in OC & Performance. Go for price if your getting the G2 Pro. If you got an extra $52 why don't you get a VisionTek G3 Ti-200 going for $184?
 
Gainward, 2D is quite a bit better and you have a better chance of getting a sweet OCing board(the Gainward ships with 4.5ns DDR). They(Gainward) are about to start shipping their Ti GF2 200 with 4ns DDR(500MHZ effective) which should be a decent amount faster then the Ultra.

The difference in 2D alone would have me paying an extra $30, easy, for the Gainward. The faster RAM/better odds at large OC are just gravy.
 
Commando223, I looked at your rig and it's got a Geforce2 GTS 32MB DDR. Why do you want to upgrade?
