Aight this person deserves a like. Ps if anyone is interested (and with the permission of the person that published the video), the community of Giants Cityzen Kabuto is still very active on discord and I can provide a link. There are also unofficial patches patches for newer versions of windows that improve graphics on modern system. Besides, multiplayer is still alive and kicking.
It's very rare card. Very few people had money for it in it's time. Even standard GTS version is quite valuable. This card is at least 3x more rare, and much more expensive. I would use rather Geforce 2 Pro, Ti or GTS, but you'll get MX440 for 10x cheaper, and it's about same performance. Geforce 4 MX440 is one of the most spread, and cheapest retro card around, I found some for 5$ dollars, and I already have 4 of them. It's almost like little upgraded Geforce 2 Ti, but 10x cheaper if not 20x.
@@tamas_k You need to have driver issues, or something. 1 Ghz processor is recommended specs, so it has to be enough. I've played it on gf4 MX440 in its time, and it smoked it at 1024x768x32 bit. I played it a little bit later, in 2002, so Geforce 4 was already out. So you have issues of some kind, because that computer what you have would probably run it even in 1600x1200x32 bit over 50 fps.
I played Quake 3 competitively for years and didn't know about the NV15 map. Thanks for posting this.

Amazing system for its day and a great win 98 retro gaming pc :D
oh man Elsa... brings back memories. Anyone remember Canopus gfx cards? Cutting edge ish back in the day
Remember playing Giants on a PII350 and Riva128ZX. Running down the Hill at the beginning and the Framecounter drops down to 7fps! OMFG!
I had a PIII 500 + Voodoo 3 2000 AGP at this time, where Giants was released.
@@TheAslinger Nice! This was a good Setup even in 2000. I bought a 3000PCI too, because it was the fastest available PCI Card and it helps a lot. :-D
This card must be some sort of unicorn. I couldn't find anything on ebay.

i tried giants with an 1200mhz cpu + geforce 4 and it still stutters.
What GeForce 4 model :D
p4 2.66 / 1gb ram / gf4 ti4200 = runs totally choppy.
