GeForce 3 Upgrade Question.....
I'm considering upgrading to a Geforce 4 Ti 4600 from my current video card, which is a first generation GeForce 3. . . . . not a Ti200 or a Ti500. My question is, would I see a noticeable difference in speed?.

I should have plenty enough processor speed to run this game very smoothly. I was just wondering what you guys think. Thx

Yikes, that's a lot of weight for a 7 layer PCB..

I also agree!
I did the SAME jump as you guys did (or intend to do) and saw a decent pickup in many games... not HUGE, but it IS there!
I also had an ORIGINAL GeForce III (which my nephew now has) & got a GeForce4 Ti4600... cost me an arm & a leg both times (as I got them as soon as they came out nearly), & yes... I felt it was worth it both times.
* I will hold off though on the next generation GeForceFX however... until Doom III comes out & I snag a new mobo & CPUs + RAM (going dual Xeon next round, probably early 2004 most likely departing from this Dual Pentium III setup I have now).
Here's the mod I did to my GeForce4 Ti4600 to make it pull off timings in core/memory of 330/740 mhz:

What a retard....My ti4400 Leadteak runs 310/670 with stock HSF.
Ti4400 .....

No need to be name-calling, now.

CORE GPU CLOCKSPEED (APK - Elvis) -> 330 - 310 = 20
MEMORY CLOCKSPEED (APK - Elvis) -> 730 - 670 = 60
It seems some people think that the lower your clock speed the better. What is the education system coming to...lol

as for this - i have a g4 4600 ultra and got ms ralli and i crank it @ 1600 x 1200 x32 res and no probs! got to lvoe it.
although i would wait until the G FX comes out and the 4600 prices will drop probably by about $200 or so.
have you considered ATI? i have both the 9700 pro ATi and a g4 4600 ultra and of course the ATi whip's a**..lol - that is until the FX comes out.
