For what it's worth, I'm on a Powerwave and I went from an old ATI XCLAIM GA card to a Voodoo 5 and things were noticably snappier; redraw/refresh times are so fast as to be unnoticable. This is to say that there's a difference between a slow 8 Mb card and anything of recent vintage. I'd drop in one of those newer ATIs and see what that does for you. ~Tarage -- Power Computing is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Power Computing list info: <http://lowendmac.com/power/list.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:powercomputing@mail.maclaunch.com> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/powercomputing%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com
