Geforce 2?

[PuF]HWAS · 4th Jun 2000, 09:01 PM

Does anybody here have it? Is it any good? Does it support FSAA?

BTW, when is the Voodoo 5 5500 scheduled for release?

The Geforce2 is the fastest graphics card on the market for games today. It is however very expensive and in my opinion not worth the price premium.

As far as I know it will be a while before the Voodoo 5 comes out (and it doesn't look as promising as the geforce either)at least a month or two from now, I should think.

I am sure the Geforce does support FSAA (sampling to a higher resolution to give better looking diagonals, is that right?) but it slows down performance immensely, why would you want to use it anyway.

I have heard that the GeForceII is the better card. Just FYI though. The Voodoo 5 is already on the shelves. I have personally seen it at the local Best Buy here in town, $299.

I'll be getting the GeForce2 here in a few weeks. I've been waiting for a long *** time to get a video card upgrade. My 22" monitor is on the way now it's time for the video card upgrade!
