Summary: Works great for win95/98/ME
Review: At first I was a bit concerned when I purchased this card. I usually research a product extensively before I buy. But seeing that true GeForce 2 technology was being offered at a very reasonable price I decided to take a chance... I'm very glad I did.I'm running on a machine that was cutting edge nearly two years ago. Investing in one of the budget busting GeForce 2 GTS cards seemed like a waste without a newer faster CPU. Buying a new high-end 3D card AND a new computer seemed excessive just to play some of the new, high-requirement 3D games. While definately a no-frills card; the included games are only playable demos and there is no TV out. The card was easy to install and has a very competent and easy to use control panel. For those who like to push their machine a bit harder there is software controlled over-clocking for both the card's main Graphics Processing Unit and on-board memory. Direct3D and OpenGL are both supported. This for less than half the price of it's highend big brothers. I've been impressed when playing such 3D intensive games as Homeworld:Cataclysm running at 1000x700 resolution with *all* 3D effects on. If you're a *hardcore* gamer with the fastest CPU on the block and the deep pockets to keep your investment constantly current enjoy the GeForce 2 GTS cards. For the rest of us the Prophet II MX is a great choice.

Summary: fast and reliable
Review: I bought this card in March 2001 a month after I built my own low-end Celeron 700 system. I had an Intel 815e motherboard with built-in video but did not like the performance in 3D games. This card is very easy to install, geforce chip guarantees latest drivers from either Hercules or nvidia, and it's been very reliable. I had no trouble with it at all, which I cannot say about the card I tried first (Voodoo 2000 crashed my system every other day). You will not find any noticable difference between this and other geforce 2 MX cards, so shop by price, not name. I strongly recommend geforce card over ATI or voodoo simply because of its set of features, performance, reliability, driver support and price. You cannot go wrong with it and you'll love FSAA feature if you play flight sim games (though it slows performance, so experiment for the best compromise).

Review: I hadn't upgraded my computer's video cards in a long time. When I couldn't run most demos available, I realizeed it was the time to get new cards. I bought the Hercules Prophet II simply because it received a couple of great reviews from my favorite gaming sites. However, I first ran across a problem when I installed the card in my Windows 2000, even with the updated drivers. It would freeze my entire system. However, once I installed it in Windows ME, Homeworld Cataclysm and Vampire the Masquerade, worked great. However, since it is only running on 2 texture pipelines, I do see the dreaded jaggies if I look hard enough in the game but it plays the movies great but as expected there is a slowdown in higher resolutions. Under 2D work, it really provides a crisp work space. Hercules/Guillemot and Nvidia together certainly make an excellent product together.

Summary: Very Close to being CRAP
Review: Maybe it just deals with my computer, but I have had numerous problems with this card before I finally returned it to the store. This card delivers excellent graphics for only 150 dollars. The detail level in Unreal Tournament is...unreal; you can even see the serial number on the Flak cannon. This is an excellent card if you can get it to work properly. While my games run smoothly and fine on this card, my games ALWAYS locked up after only 5 minutes of gameplay. I went to Hercules' website and tried their suggestions, which did not work either. I sent an email to their technical support line, and they just ignored it, as usual. I finally called their technical support line, and they were not very helpful either. I can't remember what they said, but after talking to them, I decided to take the card back to the store and get a better one. Bottom line, if you can deal with hours and hours of frustration required to get this card to work properly, then by all means get this card. On the other hand, if your like me and don't have time for crap or crappy customer service, then stay away from this one.

Summary: For you via chipset owners!!
Review: Ok, i own an athlon 550mhz on a biostar, via chipset mobo, i bought this to upgrade a voodoo 3000, i'd really took the time to research everything about problems with my mobo and my new video card, i found out a quite big issue with the kx133 chipset and the geforce 2mx, so here is the thing, install the original drivers of your mother board and then download the 4in1 4.25 drivers from via, it will make the diference for you, from locking games to wonderfull unseen performance graphics you will never believe!! so be confident geforce 2mx is better than anything in the market under...

Review: The 3D Prophet is not a prophet at all but just another fake. I say that since it did not live up to the hype. The compatability is limited to only those who have agp 2.0. Those of us who use agp 1.0 are out of luck. The card is not compatible with some of the most popular games. Running Half-Life found that crashes would be a menace. Installation was a snap. The only highlight of this story.
