what Road?????
« on: April 17, 2004, 08:08:31 PM »
Ok my 040/603e card arrived the other day so now all i'm missing is a graphics card.  So which road should I take?

1) stick with buying a mediator

2) buy a bvison card

Im also wanting to buy a scan doubler/ff will I need an internal or external version to be used with a graphics card. as last time I had a mediator, I had workbench on the vga monitor and the games on the telly but I'm wanting all on the VGA monitor.

Thanks guys I found a switch box at power computer now just top see if they would like to sell one to me?

Also I managed to get sorted with a bvision and a mediator but the mediator package comes with a Voodoo2 card (dont know what version the mediator is yet a LT or SX) Will the mediator work with a Voodoo2 as I've checked elbox site and it only mentions 3,4 and 5 and not a trace of 2.

I didnt think the Voodoo2 card would be any use, But I thought I'd check.  Its not that I need the Voodoo graphics card as I'll be using the Bvision but this is a private sale (not ebay)and I thought that the Voodoo2 was abit strange to sell with a Mediator. And with all this scamming that seems to be going on at the moment concerning amiga hardware, it just got me thinking thats all!
