I believe there is no other company as quality as NVIDIA.....so pick a card they have, and you'll have POWER! :-)

The new GFORCE2 is coming.....or is it out now??

I´d go for the geforce GTS (2) from Guillitmot they are the only one at the moment making GTS with 64 MB of DDR Memory. I have Geforce V6600 Deluxe u know from ASUS I´m waiting for Nvidia to put new memory on the Gts boards because The geforce GTS GPU is about 66 % faster than Geforce but they are using the same memory only cloced 33 MHz higher at the end you only get 14 % more out of the GTS the memory is the problem but it still is fast but not as fast as it will go with new memory. But if your buying now and money isn´t an option go for GTS w. 64Mb pretty good performance.

maybe right about speed if you don´t want the T & L tech. and I think EMBM on your board and if you would like a lack of image/picture quality go for the Voodoo but u know that they´ll die when the nv20 hits the road. (sli for nvidia)You decide but I´m only giving you the facts about the diff.

VOODOO5 6000 all the way. It has twice the ram on it than any Geforce2 card and Is faster too. While you should take into acound what everyone says...this time don't. They sound like they like Nvida and so do I but the bottom line is VOODOO5 6000 will slaughter Geforce2 anyday!!!

The V5 6000 does have 128mg of ram but they act like a 32 mg card because the ram must be divided to each VSA-100 chips, so this basicly this act like 4 32mg video card.I find that the Geforce2 GTS is best card right now.

Well, if you want to get into the features of the cards, then Geforce 2 beats Voodoo5 for having T & L. Voodoo5 6000 beats Geforce 2 for having better FSAA (for now). When the Geforce 2's drivers mature some more, the Geforce 2 may or may not beat the Voodoo5 in FSAA, only time will tell. In the meanwhile, you can't get a Voodoo5 6000, so the best card is the Geforce 2.

Why the hypothetical questions? Win the lottery? Inherit a fortune? Knock off a bank?
