  • Just bought a G400 DH!!

    It's just too awesome. I thought the 300MHz RAMDAC compared to my old V3 3000's 350MHz would show image degrations @ the 1600x1200 levels, but it aint. All show real sharp and vivid images. No blur at all with my CTX 711T.

    Luckilly enough, I bought an old fella' 486 fan where it just, *SNAPS* onto the heatsink without a question - no I meant problem.

    Didn't try to overclock yet, any suggested rates? Hmm.. planning on some mini heatsinks with standard SGRAM size.

    All I have to say is - Good to go Matrox!! US$150 is the way to go!!

    G800 is next for me! I'm sold!!!

    Yeap yet to see it's DVD (MPEG2) performance with DVDMAX. Just too exciting!!

        I too remember the pleasant joy of upgrading to the g400.

        And, I've been pulling 40+ on most Q3A video modes.

        I do recommend the TurboGL if you like to play those latest games.

        I've been using MGA tweak. I can take my DH from 262 stock pll to 300-310 and still play.
