Hey,
I am in need of some particular advice on video cards. I am looking at getting an ET4000 chipset based board. The problem is which one would be the best choice. I am looking for a inexpensive(cheap) card with hopefully the hicolor option. I have seen a few major brand of cards such as these, Orchid ...
I am looking for any advantages/disadvantages over these "name brand"
to that of clone cards. Also, I want as fast as possible. Please send me any
comments on comparisons of these cards:
Orchid Prodesigner IIs Tseng Labs generic clones
Probably one of the most important factors is price. I have seen the Orchid
at around $150, Tsseng @ $110, clones @ $100.
I want the ET4000 to ensure myself that I will be able to run Win 3.1, OS/2,
and X386. Is there a compatability problem among these various cards?
On a similar notes, does anyone have info on the ATI wonder 24XL?
