Benchmark Scores What are benchmarks anyway?
Ya might have some issues with the Nvidia FX5700 with Windows 98 Mad. Not sure there would even be any drivers for that man. Riva TNT yes, but a FX5700 may be a bit hard to find..........Of course unless ya found some LOL.

Also in your poll, why don't you include Windows 3.11? :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Can you say "out and back?" :laugh:

Got me some drivers. And actually if I had some really old hardware windows 3.11 would be a project system. But I need a 386 or 486 system for that. Which I don't have. The oldest I have right now is the slot1 and slot A systems. Hell I am still hunting for the elusive super socket 7 board I have been hunting for about 3 or 4 years now. I want one that is Atx with a agp port and mvp3 chipset.




he'll probably have more issues with the voltage changes between agp revisions. Fortunately when they did the AGP slot they accounted for this, and thus a 1.5V card will not go in a 3.3v slot or vice versa.

I am good there as the Geforce card is a 4x agp card and not a 8x card. Now my hd2400pro is a 8x card and doesn't have the 3.3volt notch like the fx5700 has.

Here is a pic of them. The 2400 8x card is the second card in the top row of gpu's and the fx5700 is the 4th/last card in the top row.
