Real3D Starfighter AGP

 

Conclusion

If all that counts to you is performance, then this isn't your card. If you take several other things into consideration; price, image quality, 2D, etc. then this is an excellent card. Sure it can't even begin to compete with a TNT or Voodoo2, but for less than half the price, it is doing pretty damn good. I didn't mention the 2D much, but I can tell you, it is good.

One nice thing that is different from Riva 128 and TNT boards is those slowdowns some Direct X 2D games show. For example, Subspace. On a Riva 128 Subspace ran at about 15 FPS 1024x768. It was pretty much unplayable. On the TNT it runs at about 30 fps 1024x768, but takes major dips when there is a lot of action. On the I740, the card never dropped below 70 fps. It was usually at 100 fps. I consider this in as quality. I recommend this card to anyone with a P2 300 or faster that is not willing to spend much, or anyone looking for a good 2D card.
