9700 Pro

Just picked up a 9700 Pro 128 on Ebay.

Should get it tomorrow.

OK - what's the good and bad news about the card

Don't have one, have the 9800 Pro 128 MB. It's a decent card even today. I would suggest you update the drivers immediatley, and would strongly suggest using the latest Omega drivers.

Depends on what your old card was Rollerball?

Its a 2+ year old card for a start!

As long as you've paid little for it, (there available new for well under

Old card is a GeForce 3 Ti 200 so I'm hoping for a real improvement. My present quality is not bad as you can see from past screenies but it's just so slow. It's a major negative on FR and eg ground textures just load so slowly. Obviously I'll load the latest drivers as always.

It's a 'refurbished' card from a dealer with a warranty and as you say well under
