Matrox Millennium G400, (16 MB) AGP Video Card

Pros: better visuals than voodoo 3 and TNT2
Cons: no tv tuner, slightly slower frame rates than voodoo 3 and TNT2

Matrox has built quite a name for themselves when the G200 lived up to the hype. Now they have made the Matrox G 400. This card backs up their reputation that delivers excellent performance and a visibly better image than even the TNT2’s can deliver....

Pros: Great text AND graphics
Cons: A little pricey (but worth it)

I purchased the Matrox Millenium graphics card on advice and after checking reviews and comparisons on the net which suggested it would be my best bet as a compromise between good text quality (my priority) and high quality graphics. The text is fine...

Pros: excellent video, excellent tech support, great video card
Cons: slow getting to a tech, not documentation about PC-to-PC software causes installation problems.

I was given a Matrox Millenium G400 video card to install on a users machine since they needed More Video Ram and the user wanted to have video capabilities. I read up on the Matrox card and every thing looked great. Easy to setup, 3D capability, true...

Pros: Great colors, excellent picture, great extra features, dual head
Cons: Not the best game card,

The G-400 is one of the finest video cards on the market for the business world. The card is also great for games but not the best. This card give excellent color patterns that you just don't see with other cards on the market. The picture is sharp and...

Pros: dual 128 bit processors, dual monitor output, 360mhz RAM
Cons: some of the packing materials can't be recycled

I bought this card about two months ago to replace my ancient 4mb Matrox Mystique 220 that had served me well for about three years. I started my computer and enabled my 4x AGP setting in my computers BIOS and booted into windows to install the software....

Pros: Almost unlimited desktop space w/ dual monitors
Cons: needs better support for NT4 and W2K

Well, Matrox is and has been one of the best video card manufacturers for a long time. With the G400 and the G400Max, they've created a new niche. Not the dual head niche, that's been around for a long time from manufacturers like Appian. But the...

Pros: Dual Head Technology
Cons: None

If you are a gamer or design a lot of things on the computer and you need the large desktop space that a usual 17 inch monitor doesn't allow, this is the video card for you. Matrox has Dualhead technology which allows you to set up another monitor to...

Pros: Excellent 2D, excellent DualHead, excellent quality, excellent DVD
Cons: not the fastest gaming card on the planet, but it wasnt made for that.

This is the best card I have ever installed.

I have dealt with all 3dfx's offerings, all nVidia's offereings, and the latest Radeon Vivo. This card is my favorite. It has the 2D display with looks that kill.

Although development...

Pros: Dual Head
Cons: Good speed. Nough said...until you try it.

I use this card for 6 months as of today.

Well..well..well. If you want to use dual monitors setup, this videocard is the only way to go to reserve your IRQ/PCI slots for other peripherals.

You may ask me why I would like to have...

Pros: Limitless performance, support for Linux
Cons: None

I've always been a Matrox guy. I bought the original Matrox Millenium 4MB, the Millenium II PCI 8MB, and now I have a wonderful new Millenium G400 MAX. The G400 lives up to its heritage and is a wonderful card for many uses.

I bought the...

Pros: Everything about the card
Cons: Everything about the company

I wish I could write an epinion on Matrox, the company, because I'd rip them a new virtual a$$hole. If you're considering buying ANY Matrox product, be prepared for sub-standard documentation, poor technical support, and plenty of time to set up your...

Pros: Excellent graphics
Cons: Can be difficult to install

I own a Matrox Millennium G400 Max with 32 megs of SGRM. I bought it to play Diablo II when it first came out.

I'm running a P3 with 330 megs of PC-133 ram and Windows 2000. I will have to say, my puter couldn't handle the Matrox with either...

Pros: Works well on single-processor machines
Cons: No SMP support

The Matrox G400 Max Dualhead Windows 2000 drivers do not support multiple processors (SMP). My Dell Workstation 420 shipped with this card, and it works well if I disable one of my two processors. However, if I enable both processors and run any 3d...

Pros: Bump mapping is nice. The multi Moniter thing rocks(with my one moniter)
Cons: not enuf speed, bump mapping slow is down even more, (

Ahhh the G400. Although this card was not that fast compared to the rivals, it offered the option of BUMP MAPPING. This is a way of making a flat surface look 3-D with shading effects. This cuts down on the poly count as to make the computer do better...

Pros: Great 2d, Dual head
Cons: 3d not the best

Matrox used to be the leader in graphics cards before the advent of 3dfx. They used to be the leader in 2d video cards. In my opinion, they are back.

I bought the Matrox G400 (32 MBvanilla, not the MAX) back in July and I love it. I got...
