I had a apogee card once by grabert ...it came with commander keen and played wolfenstein 3d pretty well at the time. Had virtual 2048x2048 resolution which was nothing more than antialiasing but it was something fairly new at the time. This was just prior to the Ati regiment of mach32 I think.
Anyway ...give it a try and let us know how it is ...I doubt many have heard of gameve.

I think you can actually get the retail card cheaper from newegg ...

i used gameve to buy my 9800pro last year, no problem at all ordering from that site.
