16MB Riva TNT vs. 8MB i740

[Savant]

which would be better general performance, the Riva TNT is a creative labs Graphics blaster, the i740 is a hercules Terminator 2 x/i, both were free, so don't laugh (hey, I bet ya'll wouldn't complain over free agp cards either)

No contest. TNT.

All of the integrated chipsets from Intel are very slow for gaming, but I guess it's suitable for those who don't do any gaming at all wot so ever.. Almost all graphics card can perform betta than the i740.. so definitely TNT!

[Savant]

okay guess I'll use the TNT and let my brother have the i740 (hey it beats a 2MB pci card i bet)

Hey, I've got an STB Velocity 4400 (Riva TNT) AGP Card and I like this one. It's defenitely better than any i740 based card so forget that i740 and go for TNT!

Who would "laugh" at this? The TNT is a decent graphics card!

yeah, I also agree that TNT2 M64 cards are decent cards..

[Savant]

this is no TNT2, it's a TNT

[NDC]

Oh, sorry. Anyways, yeah, those are decent cards also. I have a TNT Vanta on one of my systems. It can't run well at high resolution for heavy 3-D games such as Quake Arena, but seems to run decent on majority of the games.

I currently own a TNT2 M64-based card.. and I think it a piece of junk.. seriously.. it may run decent.. notice only decent on low resolutions.. but once u put in even medium resolutions it becomes almost unplayable! Then again, it was my fault of getting it in the first place.. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif I thought (before) that there wasn't much difference between the 2.. and once i started playin' games.. (upgraded from a P200, Banshee).. I was going wow this is so fast.. but then when I put on the FPS number.. huh!!? WTF!? http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif
