NVIDIA GeForce2 MX200

Nvidia have taken the critics views of the GeForce 2 onboard, and all credit to them for doing so. In case you have not read my review on the Geforce 2, the problem was basically that the memory on the original geforce 2 cards was far to slow. Or to put it another way as Nvidia would prefer, the chip was just to fast for the current memory available at the moment. Ever with DDR (Double data rate) technology the memory bandwidth was simply not there. All that has changed now with the release of the Geforce 2 Ultra. Being lucky enough to be in the computer business, I have been able to make a ... more

With the release of the gf3, this is a top card for anyone who is on a budget. I upgraded from a v3 to this card and quite frankly the increase in fps was a shock. Clocking up 300fps in q3 with only 256 ram and an 800 duron, this was super smooth and silky. The card was easy to install, even with the existence of an older card hanging about. The drivers on the cd will get you started and updated drivers are fairly small and easy to apply. The total process took 10 mins to do even with a pig of a case to install in like mine. It has overclocking options and guidelines included in teh software ... more

A fews years back, may people were buying the Voodoo family of grahpics cards, but now since the tables have turned the GeForce chipset is very popular and proves to be the ultimate winner!!! Anyone that has a GeFoce 2 GTS is very lucky, but to own the Ultra is a dream come true. Unless peopel at ATI can come up with something better, then nVIDIA will stay the people's favourite make of chipset for graphics card. The GeForce 2 Ultra does cost a meaty £350, but for those that are less rich the GTS version is now under £200, which makes it very affordable. And for hardcore gamers, this is a MUST ... more

Top of the Geforce2 range by a long long way, which came as standard in my top-of-the-range-at-the-time PC a couple years ago, and hasnt had a single problem since. Despite being superseded by both the Geforce3 and 4 models, it still manages to run all the latest games, while Nvidia continues to provide proper support and new/updated drivers from time to time. All in all a very fast card, which easily manages to run Quake III at 1600x1200 in 32bit colour without even the slightest hint of flicker. Only grumble is the TV-Out function, which only seems to work if connected directly to a TV (not ... more

As you may know 3DFX has gone bust! and its not surpising, the voodoo 5 hads the same chipset as the very fist voodoo!! all they did was increase the momory and add another chip!. the geeforce 2 GTS has been show in test after test to be way better than the voodoo 5 and the geforce 2 ultra. The ulta card (although its not cheap i paied £300) is the best graphics card on the market by far, its worth the money to run your desktop at a rediculosly high resolution ;) Hope this is helpfull ... more
