Is there anyone out there with one of these 128mb cards. I know nvidia makes a 4600 that looks sweet and I know that ati had a 128 mb card and I'm just wondering what the benchmarks are for one of these cards and someones personal opinion. So if anyone has one post I would like to hear your opinions about these cards. thx

128mb cards
Get this
Go with an Xtasy Geforce4 Ti 4600. Goes for around $350 and is the best card out as of this post. Specs:

Comparison
Core clock (MHz), Pixel pipelines, Peak fill rate(Mpixels/s), Texture units per pixel pipeline, Peak fill rate (Mtexels/s), Memory clock (MHz), Memory bus width (bits), Peak memory bandwidth (GB/s)
GeForce4 MX 440 270 2 540 2 1080 400 128 6.4
GeForce3 Ti 200 175 4 700 2 1400 400 128 6.4
Radeon 7500 290 2 580 3 1740 460 128 7.4
GeForce3 Ti 500 240 4 960 2 1920 500 128 8.0
Radeon 8500LE 250 4 1000 2 2000 500 128 8.0
GeForce4 Ti 4400 275 4 1100 2 2200 550 128 8.8
Radeon 8500 275 4 1100 2 2200 550 128 8.8
GeForce4 Ti 4600 300 4 1200 2 2400 650 128 10.4
As the resolution increases, the pack begins to separate, and we can see how things shake out. At 1600x1200, especially, the picture is clear. Despite a disadvantage in memory bandwidth, the GeForce4 MX 440 outpaces the Radeon 7500. Likewise, the GF4 Ti 4400 is over 20 frames per second faster than the Radeon 8500 at the same clock speed. In both cases, the NVIDIA cards have the performance edge.
Even lower end Geforce 4's out perform ATI's best. I personally own a Geforce 4 Ti 200, love the card.
Hope I have helped ya and no I dont work for Nvidia or Xtasy

i have a newly installed Xtasy 128 MB DDR RAM card with a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 (i shelled out $250) for it) now, i know the abilities of the card are way beyond my monitors, i would expect to see max framerates in low poly areas in UT at 1024x768x32, but i dont (my monitor max refresh rate at that res is 75Hz, and i get around 50 FPS looking at a wall and in the 20s anywhere else). in general, performance in 32 bit color didnt even improve a whole lot from my old Dell-supplied 32MB geforce 2. (i should point out that i do get considerably better performance in Q3 based games (ST Voyager: Elite Force for example) i expected this card to push my not that great monitor to the limit, but it only did so at lower resoulutions, or in 16 bit color. anyone find this odd?
also, where can i get the benchmark programs you used?

Thx for the info. I guess I'm very interested in the 64mb geforce 4. THere not that expensive plus have awesome performance. I dont know where they get the benchmarks for q3 and stuff but I know you can get 3dmark 2001 or 3dmark 2000 and just compare you scores. If you overclock you may see a little difference in your score. I'm still with the old ati 16mb rage and the 16mb voodoo 3 3000. Its time for me to get into the 64mb age hehe. Thx for the info once again and hope to see ya out fragging.
