Hello Anthony, A great Card is the MATROX MGAII ULTIMA with 2 or 4MB, VLB or PCI. It seems to be the fastest 64BIT Chip. If youre mainly working with 3ds its better to get the MAtrox with MGAII chip(Ultima), Because the 3d-Drawing Z-Buffer-Options of the MGA I Chip(MAtrox-Impression) are useless for 3ds as far as 3ds is a software-renderer. If youre using ACAD mainly, the MAtrox Ipression is the better choice. Then you have very good drivers with support 3d-drawing and z-buffer. IN windows you can switch between resolutions(up to 1600) and Color-Deeph(Upto 24 BIT). Excellent and very fast. To additionally speed up (50%) 3ds use the LIQuidspeed-Drivers from Vibrant. So far Philipp
