  • G400's hardware requirements?

    I have:
    Pentium II 400Mhz
    128Ram
    8.4Gt IBM
    ASUS P2B motherboard

    is this enough for G400 (not max)Dual-head 32Mb? Or should I byu TNT2?
    I use my computer for games and apps.

    Thanks!

    That is plenty to power the G400, but it will still scale with higher processor speeds. The Max's recommended minimum is 500MHz, but 400 is more than enough for the regular. I'm running one on a 350, and it's quite nice.

      I have had a G400MAX on order for the last 6 weeks or so. One question? Where are the System Specs for the MAX stated? I have a PII 350 w/ 128 MB RAM blah blah blah....Should I cancel my order and go for the G400?
      Pentium III 500MHz, 128MB RAM ,10GB + 850 MB Driver, Samsung DVD, Diamond Monster Sound II, and of course a G400 32MB DH (O/C 200/150)
      blah blah blah

        Hi,

        i wouldn't cancel... Your system might be some sort of bottleneck for fast 3D apps since the G400 will be able to go faster, but that doesn't mean that this is a great card and that when you will decide to upgrade... the card will be faster

        Ciao

        Ben

        PS i will get mine with my PII 400....

          Sorry I wasn't more clear. The MAX has a recommended minimum of 500MHz, but the actual minimum is said to be 300MHz (I'm sure it'll run on even less). You won't get killer speed, but you get better scalability with processor upgrades, and you get the fan too.
