Aah, what a relief.
After a 1 year absence, it is back. I bought a GF3 last year, just for games really, in which it is great. And that's about it. The Tv-out, which is horrible, gave up on me a month ago. It's in for RMA, after which I'll sell it and get a Parphelia. I'm never straying again...
It was hard finding one, but I was finally able to get one off Ebay after a couple of weeks. Had to buy it through a UK friend, to have it sent here.
The actual chip is crooked as anything, it could use some lapping. But I put a Blue Orb on there and some AS3 and it's contacting fine for now.
But anyways, what a fricken difference ! Everything is sharper, colours are deeper and beter defined, 2D is so much snappier, dvdmax is a god's gift. I realise now how much I missed all that.
When I still had the GF3 in there, I could do head to head comparison with the G200 in my file server, and that one also beat it hands down.
And to boot, it's not doing too bad in the games I play. Gta3 is on the edge of being a little bit too slow, but it's still playable.
Maybe I'm exagerating when I say that Matrox is a way of life, but it does feel so much better to have a Matrox in your box.
I've been lurking these forums for 3 years or something, but I might get a little more active, especially when I get my P
Rock on guys and girls !
