Looks like the amd machine I have to bring back to life has a bum video
card, so I'm forced to get a new one. It probably doesn't matter, but
the Mobo is a Tyan S2875 K8W dual Opteron board. I have a soft spot for
ATI boards, so I would like to see what is the latest Radeom board that
works with FreeBSD-current on AMD64's.
I was doing some reading, and I found a hint that the R300 was the
fastest board architecture, but I'm not too sure I trust where I saw
that, so i wanted to verify it. The latest R300 card I could find was a
9700, and I found one on sale at $127, so there's all the stuff I have
been able to find. If I've made any mistakes in this, g'wan and tell
me, please, I need to get this board pretty soon now.
The new machine's going to be pretty nice, once I get it going. Thanks!
