11/23 Millenium G200.. good? bad? XFree86 compatibility/performance?
\_ S.u.s.e. has a free X server which works on the G200:
Accellerated X has a commercial one. --PeterM
\_ Outstanding image quality for resolutions >= 1024x768. No idea
Compatibility: i740 > TNT > G200
about compatibility with linux products. For single-card solutions:
Performance (fps): TNT > G200 > i740
Compatibility/Driver-suppport: i740 > TNT > G200
Engineering: i740 > TNT, G200
Img quality: G200 > i740, TNT
Watch out if you're putting an AGP card in a K6 system. -jctwu
\_ Hmm.. what's wrong with AGP in a K6 system? And I'm not
really insterested in 3D.. you're telling me the i740 is
better than a G200 on 2D?
\_ erm, performance G200 > i740 duh.
K6 motherboard's (VIA MVP3, ALi Aladdin V) have traditionally
had probs with AGP cards, esp. i740 cards. MAKE SURE you
get a first-hand ref. on what has worked before. -jctwu
\_ Performance wise, G200 among the best, if not the best,
in 2D. And image quality is unparalleled. Frankly, I never
noticed how shitty the image produced by my 2 yr. old
Diamond card was until I got a G200.
\_ You had nothing to compare it to. Compare the G200 image
to your eyeball's view of the world. Same thing.
\_ In a similar vein, any hope of an Open Systems X server that can
deal with the TNT ? |
