Hi,

I've been given a Hercules 3D Prophet graphic card model 4500 with 64mb and
would appreciate some advice as to whether this might perform better than my
existing card which the driver says is a Rage 128 Pro, AGP 4 x TMDS.

I've not opened the case yet and can't quite work out whether my existing
card has memory of 128mb or the reference is something different.

Any advice most welcome.

Rob

ATI RAGE 128 PRO chip, 118 MHz clock rate;
32 MBytes SGRAM memory in eight SEC 7ns microchips, 140 MHz clock rate , 128-bit bus not 128mb SGRAM memory
Peak speed of scene drawing in multitexturing mode is 118 megapixels/sec and 236 megatexels/sec.

Are you aware that the Hercules 3D Prophet graphic card is 4 years old?
