Im not a nvidia fella... i got my 256MB Raedon X700XL pretty cheap and no problems yet.
I actually still play Quake3 alot too... I dont brag but I was at least one of the best instagibbers on teh net. With 16 players, 50 Frags Max per map and I was there within 2 minutes
... I was never into Gaylo 1 or 2
If anybody wants to set something up with UT2004, BF1942, RTCW or BF2 lemme know!!!
