I thought it was diamond but off of diamondmm.com and supra.com / products, 
there are no listings for monster or monster2 cards?

Can someone please tell me who makes this card.. ?

I was a little iffy before, on deciding which card to get, but now that the 
monster2 12 meg cards are $50 a piece after the $50 a piece rebate, i would 
like to obtain a little knowledge and opinions about the cards, and there 
reliablility, compatibility and quality, and whatnot.

Is this a good card to get? ill probably get 2 for the hell of it, but im not 
sure if i will need  to SLI these cards.. I currently have a crappy p-150 
w/o MMX, with a crappy s3 vid card, and i wasnt going to get my p2-400 with a 
canopus 2500 until after or around xmas, and the rebate ends around there. I 
dont play quake or "doom clones" but i will be playing rockey jockey, 
carmageddon, incubation, and, well everything else other than "doom clones"

I dont really know much about directx, direct3d, glide or ogl, because i dont 
own any products with them, but im guessing ill need a full spectrum of 
compatability.

thanks for any info anyone can offer.
