On the link I posterd you can find all the software you need to enable all function of the card.
Including tvtuner and capture.

I think the best and fastest way to test the Rage is to do it on your own. The best benchmark you can use is simply to play a DVD. Anyway the Rage pro Turbo is the most complete 2D chip of its time. At this site: http://us.geocities.com/ziyadhosein/rprow98.htm you can see the performance difference ...

The chip is a rage or a rage pro?
If it's a rage pro you can watch out for some combo drivers for Win 2000 and useful infos at this site:

Not 100% sure if the drivers work with the Rage non pro, maybe.

The All in Wonder Rage is a nice piece of hardware, as soon as you use Windows98SE. Under XP I'm not sure it can be correctly configured with all function (DVD acceleration, Tvtuner and 3D capabilities). There are some beta/combo drivers over the net that can solve some issue, but it's better to ins...

Thanx Stedman.
I got a very big Titan cooler, designed for AthlonXP, so the K6 is always kept cold. But my multiplier is 6x, I'll try to lower it.
Shaddam, the OS is WinXP, VIA 4in1_433 and Forceware 52.16
I still wait for some tips to improve performance, I think I can reach 4000....

Strange... I was it was the host bridge dump, I got it from the cpuZ txt. Anyway I'll check it again. @Stedman The Dram I use is a single 256Mbyte Infineon CL2 133Mhz Sync. I'm trying to go up with the FSB, but my system freezes even at 103Mhz FSB... MVP3G2 is very stable, but is not an overclocker'...

My Everest result (Everest home edition, last version) are:

MR311/MW127/ML216

Maybe I can work on those results with Wpcredit somehow?

I'll post the complete 3dmark results as soon as I can (hoping I haven't to type every single one... I'k not findng a way to copy and paste!).

First: Sorry Kachiwachi, the post was by DonPedro!! :lol: I edited the first post. Second: I tried to optimize the drivers switching thru several version (beta or WHQL) and by now the best result come with the 52.16 WHQL. Just changing the drivers I got such improvement... http://img150.imageshack.u...

Maybe I found the King of the hill??

I remeber a guy called Shaddam who tried to make a 5700 work on a MVP3 system. But he was out of luck. I get the chance to test a Sparkle 5700AGP 128Mbyte and it works perfectly without problems. But what make me really happy is the performance of this card. In a word, FAST. I read the DonPedro resu...

There is no reason to put a NV44A 6200 cause is a poor performer.
Even a 8500 or a 5200 (128bit) is better than this.
