    At the time I was unfortunate enough to own a 3D Prophet 9000, in fact I still have it, in its original box, lol, and believe me the driver thing was not all conjecture.

    AMD is my weapon of choice

    I dont game anymore. My current rig is a 3.0ghz prescott @ 3.75ghz which i use mainly for video work (itll be much faster when i swap stock cooling for water). But id still use this pc for any occasional gaming because my other pc (2500+ barton @ 2.3ghz) is just an awful machine. Now, back onto parallel processing research....

    main rig Intel, P4 2.8@3.7 - SP94 - 9800pro, easy break 21k on 3dmark 01, no need for me to upgrade cpu yet, ...... 6800GT on the way though.

    tempted to try AMD64 though to see what all the fuss is about !

    backup is XP-m 2600 @ 2.65mhz - Gf4ti4600
