<p class="artcont">This chip is presented by Hercules Dynamite TNT2Ultra 32 MBytes, AGP videocard 
        (a legendary last product of Hercules Computer - Dynamite TNT2 Ultra that 
        works on higher clock rates than others of the type. Hercules Computer 
        went bankrupt and was bought by Guillemot due to production of this card).

Features:
        <UL>
          <LI> NVIDIA Riva TNT2Ultra chip, 175 MHz clock rate (lowered down to 
            Riva TNT2 Ultra standard of 150 MHz; 
          <LI> 32 MBytes SDRAM memory in 16 Hyundai 5.5ns microchips, clock rate lowered 
            down to 183 MHz, 128-bit bus; 
          <LI> Peak speed of scene drawing in multitexturing mode is 150 megapixels/sec 
            and 300 megatexels/sec.</ul>

Overclocks to   190/225 MHz (<a class="text_link" HREF="index.html#diag">see summary diagrams</A>).
        <p class="artcont">Exactly 2 years ago in hard business battles between NVIDIA, 3dfx and Matrox, 
          Riva TNT2 based cards have appeared. Actually they were just tweaked 
          Riva TNTs as the architecture had remained the same: two rendering pipelines 
          with 1 texture module per each, so actually 1 pipeline with 2 TMUs (in 
          the multitexturing mode - and now all games work in it - pipelines combine 
          into one). This chip is rather old, it doesn't support any of new features 
          such as anisotropy, cubic and relief texturing, etc. It also lacks the 
          real trilinear filtering (it can be artificially enabled sacrificing 
          half the perfomance). These cards are not on sale now, just old stocks.
        <p class="artcont">
For the 20th of September'2001 the latest drivers from  NVIDIA - 8.04, 8.05, 14.40 and 14.61.
        <p class="artcont">Due to test platform changes, testing was conducted on several testbeds.

        <p class="artcont">As you see old 2.* drivers work very good with this card. Pay attention to 
          falloffs of 6.11-6.20 versions. I want readers to note 7.16 and 7.17 
          drivers, they are just &quot;raw&quot; and can't functions properly 
          even on beta level. Quake3 and other OpenGL applications doesn't run 
          at all, and D3D games show big speed falloff. Besides there were many 
          visual artefacts with these versions. 7.83 and 7.91 versions cause Unreal 
          Tournament (Direct3D) to lock up.
        <p class="artcont">I shall mark that 14.40 and 14.61 versions do not support DirectX 8.0 
          for TNT2 cards, causing problems in a number of games and in 3Dmark2001. 
          Also overlay settings tab is disabled in a number of 14.* versions. 
          It may be enabled with RivaTuner utility.
        <p class="artcont">There are not so many problems with 3D graphics in old games, but new 
          ones like Giants cause bunches of artefacts to show up:

        <p class="artcont">And trilinear approximation instead of true trilinear filtering lowers the 
          card's rating (you can see this approximation on the shots above - take 
          a look at the sandy soil). Below are shots taken with this card and 
          with reference NVIDIA GeForce3.

<p class="artcont">This card has fair to good 2D quality. There are &quot;soaping&quot; effects 
        in resolutions of and higher than 1280x1024. There are many videocards 
        based on TNT2/TNT2-A/TNT2Ultra chipsets with not so fair 2D quality therefore 
        given material can't prove the opinion that all Riva TNT2 based cards 
        have good 2D.
      <p class="artcont">And 6.* drivers are not compatible with the software for sound cards 
        based on Yamaha processor, as well as with SoftXG100 software synthesizer. 
        Start or Close Window buttons can be spoiled by some &quot;garbage&quot; 
        in 2D mode.
