ATI Pro Turbo vs. Diamond Stealth 64 Video VRAM

ATI Pro Turbo vs. Diamond Stealth 64 Video VRAM

Post by Joel Bierli » Wed, 05 Jul 1995 04:00:00



Okay I have a simple question.  Maybe not so simple ;-)

I am looking at the two above 4 meg video cards trying to decide on one.

I will be running Win31, Win95, DOS, and Linux.  I will be running Win31
and Win95 at 1280x1024 at Truecolor (32K and up) and Linux at 1152x900 at
256 colors in X.  DOS isn't as important, as all I do in it is run
Descent once in a while.

Instead of asking which is the best card in general, I am asking which is
the best for the above situations.  I am concerned with ease of setup and
compatibility, and a little with speed.  Cost isn't much of a concern either.
