| FekIhr's Full Review: Creative Labs Creative 3D Blaster RIVA TNT2 |
I finally decided to get a new 3d card a while back - my original was an ATI xpert@play 98 - ( also a decent card, but unfortunately not compatible enough )
I compared prices, and "what I had heard" - and chose the Graphics Blaster TNT2 -
I popped it in, installed the drivers, and it worked first try, no trouble, nothing! It's extremely easy to install.
It makes Quake 2 and Quake 3 fly on my system - very high color, and great detail. I get excellent framerates no problem ( I like to set it down around 40 for online play. For single-player I set it up around 60 it never skips a beat.)
It draws graphics so fast, I haven't seen a single bit of choppiness since I got it. I'm completely satisfied with it.
Only one suggestion I'd give a person out to get a 3d card, get one with a TV out, it's really great if you have a large screen TV : )
( I wish I got the version of this card with TV out, I don't want to pick up a new card when I already have this killer card, but I want TV out so bad : ) )
