Asus AGP-6600

Pros: Video editing abilities; VR goggles; excellent compatibility; fast; strong software
Cons: Pricey for basic functionality

Remember the days when you had to get two or three cards for a complete graphics solution? There was ussually one for your basic SVGA graphics, and then there was an add on if you wanted MPEG-2 acceleration, and another add on if you wanted powerful 3D...

Pros: Tons of fun, cool extras, good value
Cons: GeForce 256 is dated - get a GeForce2, a bit gimmicky

Disclaimer: I'm writing this review to describe a few aspects most of the hardware review sites such as tomshardware, anandtech, and firingsquad glossed over when they reviewed this card. I understand that this is now old technology, but as I am...

Pros: Inexpensive, Powerful GPU, Many FEatures
Cons: Drivers could be newer, slight (fixable) problems in Win2k

I purchased the Deluxe version about a month ago, but I wasn't expecting a card like this to have so many extras. It was just amazing at how much stuff this card comes with as well as the bundled software.

First off, you get the power of the...

Pros: Awesome graphics, fast card!
Cons: High price

When you run WindowsNT or Windows2000 you have to be very selective of what components you choose. Alot of the time, especially with the newer components (soundcards, video cards, etc) NT or 2000 support is not a gimme as with 95/98. If your lucky the...

Pros: video-in, speed, bundled utilities
Cons: extra price for the video in, not many bundled games

This card is all around great, with amazing performance in games and in regular 2d applications. With the TV out you can even fake the anti-aliasing that is present on newer generation of video cards coming out now. This (undocumented) feature comes from...

Pros: fast, 32-bit, fast memory, and 32MB of it, tv in/out, s-video, VR glasses
Cons: VR glasses sometimes (but rarely) causes instability with games

What can I say? You've read the reviews, you've read the magazine articles, you've also seen the benchmarks showing the GeForce blows the pants off of anything 3dfx can dish out. The card is simply awesome.

I originally planned to build a...

Pros: Great graphics performance and quality
Cons: Card heats up and causes computer hanging

Of course the specifications are incredible. Asus has a short but very respectable history of manufacturing video cards. The quality of graphics and 3D rendering is perfect, compared to other cards. Of course this is the most important reason for buying...

Pros: Software Bundle, Speed/Price
Cons: SDR Memory, Software Decoding, Fill Rate Limits

I love the Asus AGP-V6600 although its ram is only SDR it still beats the Geforce 2MX in some applications. I chose this product because its so good, it has a thermal sensor near the GPU (graphic processing unit), which is like its own little mini...

Pros: really great card, once working...
Cons: if you dont have the net your screwed

this card is super once you get it running but i got a s load of problems with8 the bundled drivers. first of all it may be because of the other top of the line hardware on my machine but it was freezing and locking up on games such as shogo,...

Pros: Good all in One Card
Cons: Poor Support for WinNT and Win2000

This card is a good all in one solution for the hardcore gamer and the novice video editor. The V6600 worked well in Win98 but had to work through some difficulties in WinNT and Win2000. Driver support is great if using the NVIDIA reference drivers....

Pros: Good Gaming Performance, Video Out, Video In, 3D Glasses, Many Features
Cons: Gaming Performance Can Be Better, 3D Glasses Could Use Improvement

This is an excellent GeForce256 card. It is very powerful and performs excellent in gaming environments. It also has video out, video in, and an extra video out port for the 3d glasses that are included. However, their 3d glasses aren't the best......
