it's a feature - it helps you keep awake during game play

I think it is safe to say you should buy another card somewhere in the future.Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

Choose a card depending on your needs.
To say 'I buy Matrox never again' because of the banding bug would be stupid, things like this can happen (and happend!) with every manufacturer...P IV 3,06 Ghz, GA-8ihxp i850e, 512 MB PC-1066 RDRam, Parhelia 128 mb 8x, 40 + 60 gb IBM 7200 upm/2048 kb HD, Samtron 96 P 19", black icemat, Razer Boomslang 2100 krz-2 + mousebungee, Videologic sonic fury, Creative SoundworksComment

Yes, and you expect their behavior to improve. But Matrox refused to acknowledge the banding even existed, and even when they did they said it was perfectly acceptable. <I>That</I> is the behavior that makes me warn off anyone that would consider buying Matrox. Of course, Matrox also makes it easier by not having any worthwhile products in the future.Originally posted by Che Guevara
