rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kinneys - While the TNT2 chipset is nearing two years old, the only better video cards out there are the GeForces. At only around $70 currently, the Diamond Viper v770 series is a great buy for those on a budget. I bought a v770 in July 1999, and I have yet to...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author matwood - Before the release of the DDR, Voodoo 5500, etc., I bought these when they were considered state of the art. However, with the advent of gaming, these cards, while not state of the art, are still excellent performers.

Thu, 5 Oct 2000 23:09:58 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author PKM_Assassin - The Diamond Viper 770 Ultra is based on the nVidia TNT 2 GPU (graphical processing unit) with 32 Megs of RAM and 4 times AGP. The Ultra model uses the same TNT 2 GPU, the same amount of RAM and the same AGP speed as the standard 770 model, but this...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ExtremeZero - The Viper V770 is not the newest video card on the market but it is still a great card for 3d and 2d gaming. I have had the Viper for over a year now, but it still runs every game I want it to perfectly.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author spigidygak - I've had this card for about a year and a half now. This card has been a strong performer for the last year now. I've been able to get smooth framerates (20+ fps) with newer games. This card still puts out graphics at a good level. On half-life I...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author benerdin - First of all, I don't have the "Ultra" version of this card, and I'm not sure what the differences are, but I'm guessing it just has slight improvements or has TV-Out or something like that. But, just know I'm using my non-Ultra card as a...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Zeromemory - In the world of today’s games, you cannot really get around if you don’t have a 3D card. Such games as Half-Life and Quake III practically require you to have one. Without one, you’d be left in the dust.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author triworld - The graphics this card can produce is exhilarating. I played half-life and it is seriously hard to tell that these are computer graphics except for some items which are flaws in the programming. I must say, Diamond has some kick ass driver support for...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hansmuff - The Diamond v770 Ultra has been a full success when it debuted, with very high benchmark results in 2D and 3D, and it still holds its own in its class. It directly competes with 3dfx' Voodoo3 cards, Matrox' G400 series and offerings from ATI, to name a...

S3 Diamond Viper Ultra 770: Diamond Viper V770 32MB TNT2 Ultra

Sat, 18 Mar 2000 14:55:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Terran82 - The Diamond Viper V770 32MB TNT2 Ultra is aimed at gamers. Diamond has a reputation of solid driver support and they have seemed slow in letting the Diamond Viper V770 32MB TNT2 Ultra out on the market. I think that this might be because of difficulties...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author KillerBug - I just cannot say enough bad about this card, it takes several attempts to get a system based on an Athlon CPU to start with this card, and when it does start, it is not worth the high price tag. The thing does not overclock as advertised well, as the...

Wed, 2 Feb 2000 18:05:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author magnolyte - The NVIDIA TNT2 Processor is a tight little chip. The Ultra card boasts even higher clock settings for enhanced performance. I've got a Viper V770 (non ultra) and it's fantastic. So one would imagine the ultra is even better :)
