    Advantages Advantages Good Price, Looks Cool, Fast

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Cheaper cards give similar performance on slower processors.

    When I bought my PC cash was in short supply so I opted for a system with on-board graphics and sound...Big mistake! As soon as I got past the "isn't it pretty" stage and actually tried to do something with the bloomin' thing it was very clear that I needed a graphics card so I promptly went out and bought a voodoo 3 2000 PCI and the card served me well for about a year and I had no intentions to upgrade but when I saw the Hercules Prophet II MX in my local PC World had been reduced from £129.99 to £99.99 I decided that it was the right time to get a faster card. In the box was the card itself ... more

    Advantages Advantages Very fast, cool box, excellent support.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none.

    This is after my experience the best geforce sdr card around, specially if you upgrade to the new detonator3 6.18 drivers (download them here: www.nvidia.com) The card comes in a cool box, and the manual is, good, produkt support is great, i had a problem with the resolution and i got a reply from my e-mail within 24 hours. The card tackles all games easily at 1280x1024 pixels, and most at 1600x1200, which is great, the newest drivers from nVIDIA give a large performance boost. Guillemot have made a great product and i can recommend this one wtih all my heart. The 3d prophet is best suited for ... more

    Advantages Advantages Extremely fast

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A bit pricey

    After reading all the hype I couldn't wait to get my hands on a Geforce card and I wasn't at all disappointed - Quake III will never be the same again. I couldn't believe the difference between the 3D Prophet DDR-DVI and my old Voodoo II SLI cards. The graphics are much smoother and the frame rates much higher .Benchmarking with 3DMark2000 proved all this - almost doubling the score. The DVD playback is also excellent although I had to buy an s-video lead as I couldn't get the supplied lead to work with my TV. My only gripe with the product was the bundled games. There were several on the CD ... more

    Advantages Advantages Hardware T&L, performance, price etc...

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none!

    If I were to sum this card up in one word, that word would be Fantasticvalueformoneyfeaturepackedandin​credi blyfast! The Hercules Prophet2 MX is a card based around Nvidia’s Geforce2 MX chipset which is a cut down budget version of the geforce2 GTS. Retailing at around £100, this is the best AGP card you can buy short of £150. It outperforms the Voodoo4500/5000&5500 and the ATI Radeon 32mb SDR in nearly every benchmark you can think of. Now if your monitor can only go up to 1024x768 then this is definitely the card for you. The Geforce2 GTS and Ultra cards only come into their own when ... more

    Advantages Advantages compatable with almost anything, good price

    Disadvantages Disadvantages there are better cards out there if you have the cash

    This is a great all round card which performed well inthe benchmark tests that I ran on it. It is a reasonable price, and it makes for a nice card to be sitting in your computer. The manual is quite concise, and the company support is reasonable. You can download any new drivers from the homepage of the company. This card is not the top of its category, but if thats all the monewy you have, then you couldn't do much better. I would advise this to someone who is a new or experienced user, as it has advanced setup options or you can just leave it as the default. ... more
