Yo guys,
I have 2 vga cards that I found back in the month ...
1. Geforce nvidia MX4 series [MX440] (128mb)
2. ATI Radeon 9200 series [RV280] (128mb)
...
so the both cards having the same memory made me ask this question !
I don't know how good they're both and stuff .. but just wanted to know which one is better .
Also :
Nvidia card has a coolant fan , ATI lacks it ..
Video Card
Re: Video Card
Those cards are both from around ~2001-2002. So, they're both really old.
In general the 9200 is probably the more powerful hardware, but it's difficult to say specifically which one would be better for Myth. I wouldn't be surprised if the MX440 was actually better for Myth because of better drivers.

Re: Video Card
yeah I've been using mx440 for sometime ... Have thrown it on some games and it did quite well .... i'm far from being a gamer btw !
also i googled them both cards and the only major difference i see is that ati supports directx while mx440 doesnt .

Re: Video Card
If we tell you neither, does that mean you won't play? You know, just wondering......
Re: Video Card
actually i already made the conclusion :
geforce is better for myth because of a higher texels/sec (700million) and can support singel GPU
on other hand ati is a better card because it can render with directX.

Re: Video Card
Falcon, both of them can do DirectX (actually Direct3D). I don't know where you're getting that.
Here's a good page to compare the specs:

Again though, you won't be able to tell which one is better for Myth without actually trying both. I'll hazard a guess that the geforce would be better because of superior drivers. Let us know the results if you compare their performance.
