    Did you used a Geforce MX in the past? What was your experience?

      The GeForce 2MX was my first card, after a 3Dfx Voodoo 3 and it was quite an improvement. It brought T&L to the masses by being so much more economical than the GeForce 2GTS (or Ultra). I think the one that really changed the industry the most was the next generation, the GeForce 3, which introduced pixel shaders and vertex shaders, no matter how basic they might have been.

      @@shdon never had much experience with the GeForce 3. Over here it was never too present. I remember the market practically going from GF2 to GF4 here. The ti4200 along with the 4mx were everywhere.
      Yeah, I understand your point of view.

      I had the Hercules Geforce 2 MX, it had 183 mhz RAM instead of the spec'd 166. Popped it in my duron 700 and played the hell out of Alice, Max Payne, etc. etc.

      I have fond memories of the old MX4000 I owned, sadly it got fried in a lightning storm :

    There is an error, the original MX has a 128 memory bus bandwitch, not 64 bits.

    Bom video, e sempre bom aprender sobre as placas GeForce, e as diferenças, assim não perciso tar sempre a chatear qual a melhor placa gráfica 😂 👍não me digas que lembraste da GeForce, devido ao computador que me tens ajudado a reconstruir 😂 e obrigado sem as tuas dicas o PC antigo, era um projecto condenado ao fracasso 👍😁 e contigo cada vez aprendo mais a mexer nestas máquinas
