January 16, 200323 yr Hi, I just couldn't wait any longer for the GeForce FX. First rumours said that it will be released (mass production) in 3rd week of January, and now they are saying that it will be in April, the first proper commercial release. Also, i read a gazillion reviews and I draw the line and went on and ordered ATI's Radeon 9700 Pro. Well, can anybody tells me that I made the right choice please? :) I am a little afraid that I might have not made this right, due to the GF FX release soon. I have a Pentium 3 1.1HGz with 512Mb Ram, with a GF 2 GTS, and I couldn't bare not to use some addons due to the low fps (like VMAX 747 classic, and PSS Dash 8). Can I have some feedback regarding ATI in MSFS 2002 please?? Thanks in advance and thanks for reading.AlexLMML
January 16, 200323 yr Better click Search and type in Radeon 9700.Your not going to like what you read.However the problems seem to have sorted themselves out.I have just put together a new computer(read post)I went the GF4 4600 route, because of 3 things.1. It is tried and tested...Nvidia updates galore.2. The help site is NOT called..."RAGE3D"< poor marketing....aka enraged customers come here, to talk to other enraged customers..yikes3. $$$$$$$$$I will let other poor souls go through the growing/teething pains with the GF4 FX. When they are all fixed i will buy it at 1/4 of the $ that they spend, for a better product, less headache(thanks in advance!!)..>LOLLOLShooterman
March 5, 200323 yr 9700 Pro:Number one selling video card for more than one reason....1. Fastest card available2. Benchmarks higher than GF4 w AA and AF on than GF4 w AA and AF turned off.3. Yes some people have had problems but a large majority of the problems have come from incorrect upgrade. Driver installation is tricky but when done right you really cant compare the 2 cards.I was an Nvidia fan since day one but they have really started dropping the ball as of late. And besides that why spend every other week downloading a driver update just to try and keep up w the 9700 Pro.Just my 2 cents....Bobby
