ATI RADEON 7000, (32 MB) PCI Video Card

Pros: Good picture, pretty good compatibility.
Cons: No hardware texture & lighting acceleration, pretty slow.

I used to be pretty satisfied with this card, until I ran some benchmarks against my other computer with a voodoo 2 and it spanked the Radeon....I used Quake 2 timedemo and 3dMark2000. Not too bad for a PCI card, but consider something faster if you want...

Pros: great 2D, dvd playback.
Cons: for a lil more you can get something better.

ah, my first radeon and my first ati product overall. ati makes good pci cards and this one isnt an exception. its good for what its expected to do.

with that being said, i picked it up for a system that had no graphics card or agp port. i wasnt looking to speed a lot since im giving the system to my brother for school ( and i dont want him gaming but schooling ^_^).

well anyway, this card will get you through your day and it has dvd playback support so its not all work and no play.
