Elsa Gloria Synergy or #9 Revolution IV?

[tuando]

Hello hardware guru,

Does anyone use an Elsa Gloria Synergy or #9 Revolution IV? Technically (250 MHz RAM DAC, 16 MB SGRAM vs 220 MHz and 8 MB RAM) #9 seem to surpass the Elsa board; however, the Synergy has won the best product of the year 98 in CADENCE magazine. Your insight thought and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Well, I use an ELSA Synergy 8MB AGP card. I really like it. Has worked flawlessly for me for some time now. I like the fact that its powerful enough for both 3D animation work ( 3D StudioMAX ) and games. Overall great value. The Video capture and output on it are also a plus - got me doing video editing work now to!
