hey all, if ANYONE knows where i can purchase a leadtek/asus GF2 MX for around $200 can they please tell me? I would prefer it if i didn't hafta purchase over the net too (becoz i don't have a credit card)

I am currently running a tnt2 m64 and its giving me the s***S! I plan to buy Black&White and i just know that it will run like s*** with an m64.

thankyou for your help in advance guys :D

I got my Asus v7100 at umart (who have online ordering) for $189

You should get the Hercules, sif they aren't the best GF2 MX. I'm going to ignore the fact you asked for the cheapest, crappiest one you can find and recommend the hercules because obviously you just dont know whats good for you!

yer well i can't f***ing afford it can i? i know that asus/leadteks are the cheapest around and i'll bet my left testicle that they run better than an m64.

oh btw trog, does umart have online ordering only or have they set up a shop somewhere?

what about a voodoo4?? they're only 185 dorrahs!

are they better or worse than a gf2 mx?

soz i'm a computer newbie :D i just play games

they have a storefront in sydney somewhere and in milton in brisvegas. I had a few little problems with them but in the end I got it on the day I was sposed to get it, so they seemed ok

hahahahaha

they are PIECES OF s*** !!!!!!

Get a REAL Video card

nvidia purchased 3dfx thats why voodoo = no more

I grabbed my asus v7100 for $170ish from GameDude last weekend, that's around the cheapest I've seen them for.

VOODOO POWER!

my 2x voodoo2's still give me the fps i need in CS. q3 i can get it to run good, but q3 is <400 pingeish :(

how does a creative gf pro compare to say a hurcules gf2 mx??

fps wise????

coz im deciding whether it would be better to go the faster sdr ram.. or the the old school ddr version..

i currently have a gf sdr.... it sucks in fps...

umm ddr is faster than sdr

yeah but what about overall man??
the gf2 chipset is set to a faster clock than the gf...

so.. the gf2 mx is better @ low res... i need to know around what sort of res does the ddr kick in and make the gf pro faster than the gf2mx??

q3 i can get it to run good, but q3 is OODOO POWER!

Heh

whatever is cheaper i guess if your gonna be running at low res
if you want high res get the ddr

GF Pro is slightly faster, but not $100 faster is how i see it... Get ASUS V7100 at sunlit for $199... I know Sunlit are dodge bastards, but its boxed, so no problems...

Has TV-out too. Sif that matters... :P

GeForce2 MX ASUS-V7100 with TV-OUT 32meg / V7100-2V1D DUAL HEAD $199 $255

gamedude.com.au

btw
$255 is for the dual head, $199 is for the single

I got the apollo gfmx2 from games dudes , dont get that one!! its only clocked @ 143/143 so i took it back and exchanged it for the suma Platium mx
its clocked @ 175/166 , now with 3dmark 2000
the apollo = 1259 marks
the suma = 5798 marks
half life i get like 99 fps 800x600 with 2x FSAA :)
Quake 3 with fsaa off = 100 fps @ 800x600
for $179... hehe cheap but nasty :P

ps its all black hehe looks cool , and got active cooling ( heatsink and fan )
FSAA=Full Screen Antialising

the ddr geforce2mx has 64 bit data path whereas the sdr(normal)geforce2mx has a 128bit data path which means they are pretty much exactly the same, the slowness of the data path with ddr makes it pretty much the same with the lower bandwidth sdr

primal:
thank god you got that fsaa on...

http://www.blankcd.com.au/ are selling bits these days and seem to have stuff listed at pretty good prices.
Mostly yum-char brands though.

32MB GeForce 256 3D AGP Eagle $159
32MB GeForce2 MX AGP APOLLO $169
Sony CRX140E 32x8x4 IDE $239
Sony CRX145E 32x10x4 IDE $299

Asus geforce2 mx tv out $189 COD no charge. www.umart.com.au the most reliable. ooher

Pffft asus are Refrance boards , plus there no fan on the heat sink.
not to metion the heat sink is termal cemented to the
mx chip so puting on a Blue orb is close to impossible.
and they only overclock to 195 core / 180 mem max
most other cards do 200/190.
only other reason people go out to buy asus cards is for the 5.32 transpaernt drivers. >:|

ps blue orbs are s***!

mx and m64 are ghey
i have a tn2m64 and they are soooooooo slow and ghey

d00d a gf2mx will kill any tnt2 card, even a ultra
so it's not ghey, m64's are gay

yer tell me about it... m64's are f***ED UP!!! they're all like, slow 'n s***.

have a look at gamedude, there is a gigabyte gf 256 sdr there for 199 with good overclocking potential, it comes with a heatsink and fan, so no worries there, it comes with a little sotware, but all in all for the price its pretty good, if i was on a tight budget then that would be my card of choice. ps: m64's are uba ultra f***ing ghey! i would rather own a voodoo 3. ! and i hate 3dfx :D
