Andy finally came out with a PCI-E version of his Arcade VGA card. I did a search but it wasn't working, so my apologies if this was already brought up. Way to go andy! You need to add that it supports 1024x768 just fine with a Billabs monitor though
While the X550 chipset from ATI is no barnburner it is a pretty nice little card. I may be getting my 3rd AVGA card here shortly, damn you Andy!!!!
