Is there any problems with this combo?
I have a chance to pick up the riva card cheap,
and thought that it would be a good upgrade
from my old pci card. I am running a K62 300
and not in to heavy gaming, more along the lines of
photo editing.
Thanks in advance for your comments,

Hi Mike

My CL TNT1 PCI and 503+ work great. Have for the past 6 or more months.

Good luck!

My TNT2 on my 503+ 1.2A works perfectly. Stable as a rock.
And my TNT2 M64 on the 503+ 1.1A works fairly good.
Gets locked up in games sometimes, but the card is from a no name company.
Avoid Power Color video cards at all costs, they use really low quality RAM
on them, wich can hardly be clocked to the default TNT2 speed.
I even have 3 friends who bouight this card, and 2 of em had to buy a
Creative TNT2 because the Power Color cards sucked so much.
