Jim, Re: Thanks for the report. Where are you? HK? Yes. This is a very competitive market and under normal situation, the street price is very close to Intel's published price in 1000 units(within 2-3 US). PII 300 now is 30-40 US higher. >Plenty of G200 Matrox cards on Pricewatch for sale. >I remember you asked. i740 is OK for lower middle >range AGP cards. $55 is a good price...but I'd be >skeptical of the quality of the card. Millinium G200 is 2.5 to 3x of i740 here. And for i740 board basically, almost all are equal especially Intel has released their 2.x reference driver. My i740 board is a "don't know who made it one for $65(bought a month or two ago)". I only used it for 2D and it is fast and crisp, VCD playing is ok. I don't play any 3D game so don't know about that but for all the reviews I have read, i740's 3D is excellent in terms of image quality and speed is not the fastest but acceptable so long the resolution is 640x480.
