Re: [Dri-devel] What 3D card?

[mitch <re...@li...>]

I've used or have seen in person a V2,V3, Banshee, tnt, tnt2, Geforce, G200,
G400, and a Ati rage pro in linux and the V3 is by far the best performing card
that there is in linux right now. It also has opensourced drivers. The V3 looks
very nice in linux too. If you want to see some screenshots of what a V3 looks
like running Quake3 go to my page at http://linux.eelinux.com and you'll see
some pics of it. I'll post up a screenshot of it running in a window too.
