Hi list,

I feel it's time to get something faster than my old Matrox G450 to run
with the DragonFly box. Any recommendations? I don't want to upgrade to
PCIe yet as I would need to build a completly new box for that. And I
want 3D acceleration in X. I will probably do some ghetto silent cooling
thing, so not a too hot chip ;-)

You're probably pretty much OK with almost any AGP ATI card, I've had good results with a couple of 9200SE cards, an old All-In-Wonder (Hercules branded) and an X1650 - that last is probably a bit too hot though (fan on card and an extra power connector).


Okay, that sounds great. I'll see what I can find.


Thank you,
Max
