Question XGI Volari V3 Graphics card?

Now I know they aren't mainstream, but they are fully DX9 compliant and very inexpensive. I was wondering if anyone owns one and has played GW, or has seen anything online about it?

I've always been a fan of the oddball graphics cards, like the Kyro's, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about GW on an XGI Volari V3.

Thanks.

I've never even seen one of these. But, reviews have shown them to be mildy capable but buggy. They can't really hold a candle to the Radeons and Geforces within their price range. I would REALLY research these in depth before considering them, other than for owning an oddity and not expecting it to really perform.

I dont recommend it. Word is that drivers are bad for it (and need work)...also they dont "get along" with many games such as farcry and other higher end games (including gw)...
Just too many bugs to work out....

...dont get it, your better off with a radeon 9800 series, or nvidia 6600 series...
