Let's put this to an end. Like I said before, there is nothing on the
box that would indicate that it is a M64 card. Under both 3D and 2D
features, it list it as being a 128bit architecture/acceleration.

-"Even if it doesn't, I still say that you should have known"
What I don't understand is why you think I should have known it was a
M64 card if there was no reference to it. It even claimed to be a real
TNT2 card thru its specs on the box. Price does not ALWAYS indicate
what is inside a box.

-"but like I said before you were just to ignorent of the subject to
know."
I can't seem to win with your single track mind. Say what you will.
But you don't know wtf you are talking about. Good day.
