I can recommend it.The fourth was a Voodoo5 5000 64 meg. I honestly liked the card but had problems with some games locking up the price ratio for a 64 meg card is good.But I try to keep computing as trouble free as possible. Reading PC World`s latest issue they rated this card number 2 on their chart.It is a fine card for the price.It comes with a control panel where you can experiment with overclocking the card. I feel I made a smart purchase.If I had to rate my experiences with the cards I have used they would go like this 1Hercules Prophet 2.Voodoo 5 5000 3 Voodoo 3000 4 ATI....ATI`s drivers are terrible 5.Diamond Stelkth....horrible...I don`t even want to go there Hope this helps.All cards were done with a clean...Read more 17 of 22 people found the following review helpful: By "scottmeister" (El Dorado Hills, CA United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Hercules 3D Prophet II MX Dual-Display Video Card (Personal Computers) I just received this product a couple weeks ago, and I have been impressed! This card not only can display stunning graphics for its rather economic price, but it can utilize dual-display technology from the GeForce 2 MX TwinView GPU. I love the dual display, you can setup the monitors' orientations so that you can move the mouse from one monitor to the other. There are only two minor problems: the secondary display is a TV-out and some games show errors when you have in dual-display mode. To get around the latter problem, you just adjust the control panel to disable dual-display, then restart your computer. Again, this is a fantastic card! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: By A Customer Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Hercules 3D Prophet II MX Dual-Display Video Card (Personal Computers) I bought this card as an upgrade to replace my old 8mb SiS card. It installed easily but required a bit of tweaking to get it to run properly. I had to dowload the latest unified driver from Nvidia and the newest agp driver for my motherboard. Once I did that it ran with no problems. On my P2 350 Unreal Tournament and Quake 3 both run beautifully and faster than I've seen on any card. That's with full graphics and 32 bit color. The TV out is also a nice added feature for watching DVD's. |
