    Visiontek, and I have to say it's just incredible!!!! biggrin.gif

    I have everything set to max in T2 and it's ultra smooth.

    Also the card works with all my memory so I also got my machine finally upgraded to 1GB of memory too. smile.gif

    Watch out Freecell!

    Sounds sweet Hobbes. I think I might give it two or three months till the price evens out a bit then get one.

    Local shop (US).

    btw, maybe bubbles can help tweak it so I can be more of a smug bastid wink.gif

    1280x1024@32 - everything maxed biggrin.gif

    I've found a downside, that it takes longer to move my mouse from one side of the screen to the other.

    If you do buy the card, I recommend having a look at the Chamelon + Zoltar demos. They are just astounding.

    Yea Hobbes, the game looks great once you start upping the gfx from nothing!

    What framerate are you getting exactly tho?

    With everything on, I get around 100fps indoors and anything from 40 to 80 outdoors, (generally speaking).

    I don't think the FPS works right. It says I'm getting 20fps everywhere, but the game is really really smooth. Maybe's a 120 and the 1 is getting chopped off the HUD.

    Nope 20 out in alot of action would be right... but I know what you mean hobbes.... when I had my GF2 - when tribes said I was getting around 25 fps it was real jerky... but with the GF3 it never jerks.
