which one, Ati 3d rageIIc or S3 trio 3D/2x (both agp)

[rador]

which is better ?

[Darren Wilson]

Rage II

[John Foster]

Sorry Darren have to disagree. Go for the S3.

[Darren Wilson]

Rage IIc has hardware DVD acceleration built in to the chipset and actually performs better under D3D than the S3 Trio3D card.

[John Foster]

I'm just biased! I hate the RageIIc with a vengeance. I have always found S3 boards to be solid performers - not brilliant, but better than most.

[Darren Wilson]

They are both average boards, nothing mindblowing.

[Sowulo]

I'm with Darren on this one. Have seen quite a few of both, the IIc gives a little bit more. (not to mention S3 drivers are getting harder to get)

[Jallentino]

in my humble opinion.... Ati

[Lycia]

My question is, why would you have to decide which one is better??? Are you stuck with either card? You should be able to get even a OEM voodoo3 for not much more than what you'd pay for either card?

Is this graphics on a laptop?

I think the person has both cards and is asking which one of the two is better. If it was a Laptop, then obviously he/she wouldn't be able to change the card

The Rage IIc is definately the lesser of the two evils here...

[John Foster]

Ok guys get the point. Rage IIc it is. I still prefer S3.
