I have just purchased a gfmx (Prophet2 MX).
This is the buggiest card I've used to date. Ive had most all fo the "hot" cards going back to the Voodo1. The progression is: Voodo1 with Diamond 3-D 2000, tnt-1 with dual Voodoo-2'S, Rage 2 Fury, Matrox G-200, TnT-2 ultra, Voodoo 3 3000, Matrox G-400 Max. And now this G-Force 2 MX. Of all the cards I've used I have found the Voodoo's and the Matrox cards to be the best as far as stability goes, and also for best installation. This g force is a real nightmare. I will say that it is very fast when it works. It does well in Q-III. But has very frustrating freeze ups when I'm runnung cad programs. The G-400 Max was fin in Q-III @1024x768 w/most eye candy. It ceartainly hads much better MPEG and tv display. With the Matrox cards and voodoo-III I never had any freeze ups ever!!!
