msolnik writes: "nV News has a brief article about the long-awaited NV25-based video adapters. These graphics processors have similar capabilities compared to the XGPU, and are a lot more powerful than GeForce3 Ti500. Since they are manufactured using .13 micron technology, they will probably be clocked at very high levels."

I want a card that runs stable and runs fast in Linux AND windows (shudder...)

Same here... Which is why I've settled on a Radeon 7500.

I sure hope it does because my current card has a hard time doing AA. Words like AArdvark just kill it.

I upgraded to a Radeon recently, and NetHack flies. :)

Hello wideangle, the human Archeologist, welcome back to NetHack!--More-- You see here a shiny nvidia card. . A geforce for 599 zorkmids. Pay? [yn] (n) y You bought a geforce for 599 gold pieces. --More-- "Thank you for shopping in Tom's discount hardware!" R You remove the heatsink. You feel like you've done something bad. #pray A Large voice booms: "Thou hast angered me." --More-- The geforce explodes! You are blinded by the smoke! It hits! It hits! --More-- It hits! It burns! --More-- It bites! You die. The shopkeeper gratefully inherits all your possessions. Goodbye wideangle. You were Microsoft-aligned. You were inspired by user 31387. You were unlucky. You were broke.
