THE FIRST CONSUMER GPU EVER

by Spoon , Dec 07 '99
Pros: Handles all 4 spectrums of the 3D pipeline, highest framtrates available, its 16bit color mode looks like 32bit on a TNT2 Ultra, THE ULTIMATE, THE ONLY CONSUMER LEVEL GPU(Graphics procesing unit)
Cons: uuummmmmm if you break it in half, it won't work
What can I say about this card. I caould just say it's the ultimate and leave it at that(but I'm not) This card has everything you could want on it. Blazingly fast framerates, 16,24,and 32bit color depth, great game support etc etc... I didn't want to...

Speed!

by logikz , Mar 24 '00
Pros: SPEEED, QUALITY
Cons: EXPENSIVE
Yes, raw SPEED is what this card has, but did I mention that it looks great as well. This is far and away the absolute best 3D consumer graphics car on the market today, for any price. This card can belt out framereates that will make you cry. Included...

My very own 4000 TX AGP

by endurance , Jun 13 '02
Pros: Fast, Good Game Support, 2000 Loves it!
Cons: XP Support 'iffy' works sometimes, others it chooses not to.
I was in the market for a new card, my Linux box needed a nice ol Voodoo3 3000AGP and that meant my Windows box needed a new card. I went to the local CompUSA and this was on sale for $89.95 so I took the plunge. Hurclues has been around since the early...

by manjarres , Jan 26 '00
Pros: Speed, Graphic processor Unit
Cons: price only
If you are a gamer this card is for you. This is the most advanced Graphic Card the very first generation that includes a Graphic Processor integrated that does a part of the CPU's work.

The Prophet nears Perfection

by kausman , Apr 19 '00
Pros: Super fast speed, beautiful picture quality
Cons: A bit pricey (at $269.00)
When I got my new computer (800 Athlon, 128 RAM)I really needed the best graphics card for games and DVD. I found it in the 3D Prophet. Although a bit pricey, the Prophet displays awesome resolutions with some lightning fast framerates. If you are...

Is the Prophet worth it?

by garmin38 , Dec 24 '99
Pros: GeForce 256 Chip, TV-out, Overclockable
Cons: More expensive & slightly slower than the Annihilator.
As far as face value goes, The Guillemot 3D Prophet is a great card, due to the fact that it is powered by the GeForce 256 graphics chip. But face value is all you can throw at it originally without adding in slightly harder facts.

Now, I...

Like it a lot

by Polydwarf , Mar 07 '00
Pros: Speed, Colors
Cons: Price
This card, while expensive, is a great card for any hardcore gamer.
You look at the price tag of the Prophet 3d, and wonder why it's so expensive, and you would tend to move on to another card.
But, you'd be passing on a great card to someone...

Speed and Value

by rpohlman , Jan 19 '00
Pros: Speed, TV-Out, falling price
Cons: Not quite as fast as the DDRAM GeForce boards
People looking for leading edge performance and technology without paying absolute top dollar should take a look at the 3D Prophet. As more and more DDR Geforce cards are trickling onto shelves, the prices of the SDRAM cards continue to drop. I picked...

3D Prophet Wails

by sage420 , May 01 '00
Pros: Wicked fast, accurate, and detailed accelleration in all graphix fields, DDR
Cons: runs hot, expensive
I have tested serveral, geForce based cards by Creative, Leadtek, and Hercules, but the Prophet takes the cake.

The geForce chipset delivers stunning graphics accelleration, accurate texturing and swift rendering. With the 64MB of on board...

So Much For The Voodoo That You Do

by infielderx , Sep 05 '00
Pros: Amazing Framerates
Cons: Plain Demos
In the beginning, God said "Textures and high polygon counts are good"; Then he picked up a copy of Entertainment Weekly and forgot all about what's important in computer gaming (aside from gameplay, graphics) until 2,000 years later.

This thing is HOT!

by Dave70968 , Jun 28 '00
Pros: Absolutely screams! Framerates are through the roof
Cons: Pricey, especially as an upgrade
As a college student, I am required to play computer games for a certain number of hours every day (23). I had been playing them on my laptop, and doing so successfully (see my review on the Dell Inspiron 7000), but I felt I was missing something. I...

For Speed Demons Only.

by EasyTarget , Mar 20 '00
Pros: 32bit graphics are sweet
Cons: price, tv-out is useless
The GeForce 256 chipset has set a new level of graphic performance that has not been matched by any other competitor. 3dFX has their work cut out for them. Nvidia will soon release a new chipset NV10 that will outperform the GeForce, but until then it...

Buy if you don't have a GeForce

by evaldemar , Mar 28 '01
Pros: Cheap $, Good video card. Actual drivers that work great.
Cons: Hercules Tech Support.. what else. Only 32 MB.
I bought this GeForce256 32MB video card in Jan. '00. Excellent card at the time for $149! I am a GAMER! I pushed this card with all I had with my Athlon 600 MgHz & 256 MB RAM. The only problems in games I had was at HIGH resolution, 1024x768. Some what...
