If you get the 2mb card you'll easily be able to do 1024x768 at 72Hz The card itself is only about $110 for a 1mb model, and about $170 for a 2mb model. The os/2 drivers are very good, and work very nicely on my system.... Personally, I'd recommend it over many "name-brand" cards Or, if you can wait for a while, buy the new et6000...it leaves every other card for dead! It's faster than any matrox/diamond stealth/#9 card, and looking at tsengs web site, it looks like its going to be very competitively priced.
