OMG Uber system~

[OMG1Penguin]

I am running a A64 @ 2.4ghz, 1280mb ram.


With a Geforce 256. Teh original!

I thought someone would find humor in that~

 

[Finalnight]

um, better wait to upgrade then for a few more weeks, go for a x800 pro or a 6800 GT.

 

[OMG1Penguin]

My 9800pro is on strike, I got a evga 6800 vanilla, since they have an outstanding trade-up program for when the 512mb cards are out.

Man, I remember when the Geforce 256 was the hottest sh!t ever...

wow, wtf?! I upgraded my 600 Mhz K7 Athlon to a 2500+ Barton with an nForce2 mobo and my GeForce 256 DDR would NOT work because the video card was too old for the AGP slot. Lucky bastard!

Worked with my 566 celeron, 2500+ barton, and my a64!
OMG what's next?
Liek quad processor VR machine without DirectX16 compatibility?

What motherboard are you using? don't understand how this is possible. Later AXP boards are even mostly 3.3v incompatible, I can't imagine an a64 board being compatible with it unless you have some strange GF256.

I never had a gforce, but ran my Radeon 7200's and 8500's to the ground!! (Running a 9800 Pro now, very happy )

 

[OMG1Penguin]

It is a MSI something Neo Platinum (nforce 350).
The card is an asus v6600.

The barton board was an MSI nforce something something.

All GeForce cards are supposed to be 1.5V compatible. If your card is not, it does not comply with nVidia's design specifications.

BTW, most TNT2s are 1.5V compatible as well. Only cards I know of that aren't are the early Diamond Viper V770s.
