| jedicocheese's Full Review: 3Dfx Gigabyte Technology GA-630 |
I purchased this card because I like to play games but didn't want to spend a fortune on a high end video card. For 119 dollars, this card is fantastic. It's easy to install and I've never had any problems with it.
I was looking at the Voodoo 2, but didn't want to pay over 280 dollars for a video card. Then I found this card and took a chance. It installed super easy and has never let me down. The graphics look great(granted, not as good as the Voodoo 2, but not much difference.) My roommate has the Voodoo 2 and I can almost never tell the difference.
If you play a lot of games and don't have the money to dump into a high end card, this one will work great for you. Right now I have to money to buy a new card, but I'm not going to because this one works so well.
I got this card because of the price and also a lot of games recognized the chip set and configured themselves to use it. That's always a nice feature when your games recognize the card you are using and optimize themselves to use it.
Over all this is a great card for the price. I know it's tough to find now, but if you can get it somewhere, I would.
