yes... kinda old news... The review site you posted SUCKS ASS... I
guess they never heard of page numbers. I have 1.5down... I stopped
it after 1 minute of DLing.

Here is a much better review by a professional site:

This $300~400 XGI card (top end) that's dual GPU (3DFx Voodoo2 and
Voodoo5) is supposed to compete against the ATI 9800....

At BEST - it can keep up with a $100 5600Ultra.... with the cheat
drivers. Remove the hack/cheat drivers (rename exe file) and the card
becomes even slower - but looks better (they are disabling visual
featres for fps)... to worse than a fx5200 (non Ultra).... LOL
