Kyro II or Radeon

I have a Radeon 64, I will try to be objective and base my responses on the reviews and research done:

1) At that resolution it would be vitually no difference, advantage will be with the Radeon in color due to its 10bit DAC vice the 8bit DAC of the Kyro2. Many people compairing the GF2 cards to the Radeon always mention the better color, well there is a real reason and it is the 10bit DAC of the Radeon which only the Professional cards had previously.

2)Both will be stable, same

3)Kyro2 would win but the Radeon 64 performs well in W2K gaming, just not as fast as WinMe. The Kyro2 of all the cards had the least performance decrease in gaming in W2K of any card.

4)Radeon64 due to its more advance features (a.k.a T&L). Note: there are alot of future games such as Wolfenstein2 which uses the QuakeIII game engine, also future games using the Serious Sam engine. The Kyro2 with a very fast CPU beats the Radeon in both of those games with the same settings. The Kyro2 stumps the Radeon in FSAA while the Radeon Stumps the Kyro2 in Anisotropic filtering. Counter Strike on the Radeon plays better then on the Kyro2 at present. Either one I think you will like. The Radeon 64 does have better DVD and plus has VideoIn and VideoOut capability which are excellent features which you once start using you will probably not want to depart with.

Both cards are a great buy for the money giving unheard of performance a year ago.
