anyday
it beats geforce 2 gts and radeon vivo at 32 bit at high res. if you run this card with anti-aliasing, it leaves the competition in dust.
when i meat beat, I MEAN BEAT DAMMIT !
if you like playing 16 bit at low res, then mx or gts would do

Do you have any problems with your MX?
It is a fair amount faster in 1024x768x32 and beyond in most current games. (Only exeption I saw is MDK2).
If you want a real upgrade though for the MX, get a 200$ PRO as soon as they officialy drop there in stores, and overclock it. You'll get with 200$ Ultra performance. :D

sadly i don't even have enough $$$ for that.....
i'll probably get a new vid card Q1 2002, which is when i have gotten a new vid card for the past 3 years:
1999 (March) : Voodoo 1
2000 (Feburary) : Voodoo 3 2000
2001 (Janurary) :Geforce 2 MX

I gotta give the KyroII its props. In the review I just read, the card and the chip proved itself. It didn't look like much on paper but it really gets the job done (especially at very high res). Anyone who owns this card is gonna be real proud of it even for a time after KyroIII comes out. That is all. Out!
