    Post Card that's compatible with VIA?

    I was wondering...

    Are there any 32-bit (and higher) graphics cards that are compatible with VIA chipsets?

    I'd rather waste money on a new card than a new board. :/

    32Mb Radeons have no problems with VIA chipsets. The 64Mb versions have a couple of minor issues that require a file name change & BIOS setting.

    Nvidia tnt and geforce cards also work pretty sweet (and the price is right too )

    I'm using Nvidia's TnT with the latest drivers and have had no problems running any games yet, well... except for Alice and I have no idea how I buggered that one up.
    Asp4wave error ?

    Any newer vid card will work with a VIA chipset. But the Radeon will probably work best out of the box, without a bunch of registry hacks and bios tweaks.

    I'm using an AGP Radeon and a PCI Rage 128 board on my ABIT VP6 - VIA chipset board.
