    Which Matrox card had the best VFM?

    OK, this is a Matrox forum, most of you have probably been through a lot of Matrox cards, and in doing so you've spent a lot of your hard earned cash. What I want to know is which Matrox card you've owned in the past (or still own) you think had the best value for money.

    IMO the best card was the Matrox Mystique - great 2D, Direct3D support (good @ the time) and bought for less the price of a P166 (back then ).
    The worst card has to be the m3D, but that really wasn't a Matrox card (NEC, who was supplying the SGRAM memory chips, sorta 'forced' Matrox to buy large quantities of the PCX2 chip).

    Hey, I know someone who bought a M3D for $14 then got a $15 rebate.

    I think that has to be the best value for money you can get. Matrox pay you $1 to use their hardware!

      Heh, I once saw a deal on a pair of speakers that cost $99.99. The rebate was $99.98.
