which GeForce 2 Pro would you recommend?

from the few reviews ive readed up to now the Gigabyte one (GF2010) has took my attention. i really care a lot about img quality. could someone help me on that?
thanks for the attention.

well that depends really.

the gf2 series never had good quality over 1024x768 so i would say none of them.

but the radeon 64 has awesome color depth at any resolution just there drivers suck

[Warlord2]

get radeon 64 for quality

get geforce 2 pro or a higher geforce for proformance

The Gigabyte one does stand out to be pretty much the best Pro vard avaliable, considering it only have 322mb DDR ram

[Genis B]

opps 32mb i mean:D
but i wouldn't mind to see a 322mb version though............:rolleyes:

ive heard of better img quality for the radeons and i really would enjoy to get one - but ppl also use to say about bad development of their drivers and thats a huge minus point on them i guess.

what about MSI SF831? im not sure if i could find it here in são paulo but it seems to be a good board, is it?

I have a Radeon 64 ddr and many others on this board have Radeons as well. Those that claim there is a driver issue do not even own the card so how would they no.

I have owned a Geforce card and I have now switched back to ATI cause nvidia 2d video quality/clarity as well as the 3d quality in my opinion is no where near as good as ATI.

The 64 DDR Radeon will outperform or equal a Geforce 2 Pro card at 1024 x 768 32 bit colour and thats a fact. Till ya own one there is no need to comment about ****ty drivers. I use the beta 7530 drivers and have not had any issues and the cards performance is great In fact I am just going online to do some UT gaming and I look forward to the crisp sharp detail the ATI card can offer.. You be the judge , in my opinion yoiu can get a 64 DDR Radeon for as cheap as $145 US , thats a deal or buck up and pre order the radeon 8500 at dell.com for $203 thats what I would buy if I lived in the USA no question about it!!!!

Radeon is a great card all around and it also provides excellent DVD playback....

My 2 cents worth

i beleive u Cisco. thats not an easy decision once im planning to keep the new card for a long time: here is actually the main issue about choosing between nvidia (unified drivers and frequent development - at least unofficial) and ati (performance plus great img quality). for all that time id like always to count with newer and better drivers.. maybe ill still bet on the radeons.

I know we all love performance here at overclockers.com thats why we are always looking for the smallest improvement LOL.

I look at drivers this way, If I find one that works well beta or official and it does not give me any probs and performance is good I would just keep it.

Just for clarifactaion i had a gts2 then i went to a radeon then i went to a gf3

the gf3 2d beats the radeon and same with 3d performance. but costs alot more.

alot depends on your screen resolution i run at 1600x1200x32 and the gf3 so far has clear clarity over the radeon but the radeon beats it in price

wait a month you could probably get a gf3 for under 200.00

MSI!!!!!!

I'll put in a second vote for the MSI Starforce 831, great card:)

[jascar]

im thinking seriously about an msi starforce 831 im getting tired of waiting for radeon. so this is a good card?
