Thought all you old school computer users would enjoy this. Diamond is back and ready to start making video cards again.

I remember when my Diamond Max 3D accelerator was the best card I had. ( Linking the 3D card to the 2D card via an external cable ) Time sure does fly when you're having fun!!

Yeah!
My first PC was a 486/33 with a Diamond 1MB graphics card. Me and my mate tried to overclock it to 40Mhz, but it kept locking up while playing DoomII. It certainly taught me about the basics of overclocking.
I upgraded the memory to 2MB, giving me 16-bit colour (wow!). It cost me a silly amount of £$£$£$ at the time.

I'm the other way round. I always supposed that the chipset makers know how to squeeze the most from the cards. Have you tried benchmarking with the old manufacturer's drivers and the latest Nvidia ones?HAL6000 wrote:I like to use drivers from the people who make the card.

That might mean I would have to connect a monitor to it again.InactiveX wrote:I'm the other way round. I always supposed that the chipset makers know how to squeeze the most from the cards.
