  some banshee cards overclocked extremely well, too. I had a diamond version that did 166mhz without breaking a sweat. Wish I still had the card, would be fun to do some volt mods and see how far it could really go.

  Yo man, QUESTION!? Can I use as "Screen Saver" every graphical demonstration you showed in this video?

  @GoodBoy-io6fdКүн бұрын

  27:29 Dude I had these 3 graphic demonstrations when I had my very first Video Card The NVidia GeForce 4400 MX Ti if I still remember the model right. You forgot to show the woman robot dancing on top of the water! I had these 3 the Werewolf, Dancin Robot and Squid Robot under the water but I do not remember if I have that forest pool. All of these are included after installing the drivers of the Video Card. Until now I still have that driver disc with me!

  I was lucky enough to get an FX 5800 (non ultra) card as part of a recycle lot for $0. Its not a terrible card, at least for the Pentium-3 era retro box Its planned for. On launch I bought a dumb FX 5200 card, worst card ever (except what it replaced, a GeForce4 MX something, rebadged GF2).

  The 3dfx 5550 wasn't a great PCI card. It was a garbage AGP card, thus the differences between the two weren't great.

  I have the FX5700 AGP, I use it in a Windows 98 gaming computer, it supports DirectX 9.0a, that along with the Nvidia driver v56.64, and nGlide v1.05 allows me to run all my 62 Windows 95 & 98 games I have for that machine.

  I remember when GPU meant Geometry Processing Unit not just as a general term for a 'Graphics Card' I was saying to a friend a while back how the terms use had changed but couldn't find much online about it at the time (I didn't exactly deep dive lol), nice to see a vid confirming I'm not totally crazy haha

  Got a free Radeon 7000 from someone and was excited to put it in an old PC... only to find that this PC on has PCI slots and no AGP slots. This is helping me land on the FX5500 for this old XP machine and see how it goes.

  I bought one of these. I played Need for Speed Underground on it. It was a rough experience. I did all my homework and saved all my money and bought a Radeon 9800 pro. I have owned one other Nvidia card in my life. A 6800GT. It didn't suck but I replaced it with an X800XT just because. That deal with the FX 5200 made me dislike Nvidia to be honest.They claimed it to be a gaming card. It wasn't.

  I'm still pissed with the X1800XT to this day, because ATI released the X1900 XT just 3 months after releasing the X1800XT with a pretty significant jump in shader performance. ATI obviously knew the X1800XT was a flawed GPU but released it anyway. Imagine AMD or Nvidia releasing a top end card then 3 months later release another top end card with a 30 to 40% performance jump, the backlash would be unimaginable today.

  My retro system is a Q9400 running DDR3 memory and a GTX660 3GB graphics card. Running the original Crysis is really really nice in Ultra. Mini ITX case, motherboard and Q6600 was given to me for free as 'some dual core'. Q9400 cost me $12, bought memory for $20, GTX 660 was $30 during the GPU shortage, and I slapped a Sata SSD in there.

  Star Wars Episode One Racer was a great game that I still own, and play it to this day on one of my retro Windows 98se computers. I learned alot over the years also, in 1997 I bought a new computer, I added a 3dfx Monster 3D video card shortly thereafter, I was hooked on 3D gaming after that, and the rest is history. Since then I learned how to buy old computers, and upgrade them, and it's been alot of fun, and very satisfying. I have too many games for any one person to ever play, and I love them all. :) This is a great channel for the inexperienced to learn from, I watch it because I love the hardware, and gaming just as much!

  never bought any graphics cards at all in 2001... i was downloading Mp3s and using Napster then and just got a 100mg Iomega zip drive on my Celeron 433.. i had the 8meg AGP sis 620 motherboard graphics and i could play UT2000 just fine in software render and it looked great. Why waste money on a graphics card, it didnt help that i had the cheapest motherboard money could buy a Abit board with just 1 PCI expansion slot and everything else built in.

  you should tell people the power requirements of this card... i blew up my PSU during this time trying to install a card like this you needed heaps of power i used the 75w plug it wouldnt start so i put the extra 75w in when it was running thinking that was fine and over voltage protection would protect the pc , i fried everything with a puff of smoke including the ram motherboard and cpu nothing was left

  I recently fixed up my first PC that had one of these paired with an Athlon 2600+ and 512mb of RAM, and I've been pleasantly surprised by the performance. I have it hooked up to a 1920x1200 monitor, and it's been powering through almost every 90s game I throw at it. It even ran Heroes of Might and Magic V (my favorite xp era game). It didn't do great, but it was semi playable.

  Interestingly, AA wasn't needed that much as it is now. In 2003 we still used CRT's a lot and those were mostly 17-19 inches. 1280x1024 on 19 inch screen is 86 ppi, which is almost the same as FHD 23 inch ppi (95). I personally had a 20 inch Diamondtron and it could do up to 2048x1536 (not many gpu could handle that, though). Also, the CRT image was somewhat sharper than the LCD, so even 1024x768 on 17-19 inches was looking really nice even with no aa at all.
