Basically Sharing the details of what a graphics card upgrade can do for Gp3.
Anyway, i've got PIII 500, 128Mb PC100, Supermicro Mb.
I did have a TNT (1) grahpics card, hercules dynamite TNT, anyway, gp3 recommended 640 x 480 in hardware mode, and 800 x 600 in software.
Now, with my new Hercule Geforce 2 64Mb GTS, it recommends 1280 x 1024 in Hardware (the top one on mine), and of course still 800 x 600 in software. I'm running it in 1024 x 768 though, as my 1280 x 1024 would be in the horrible 60Hz. Makes a big difference having it in higher res with full graphics on :)
