Could get it to work properly


Bought this card and installed it into my Fujitsu Siemens Scaleo 600, as shown in the Manual. After Installing the required software, the system booted normally. 10 minutes later the system crashed. The graphics in 'Far Cry' are simply great... but what to do if you can only play 10-15 mins. Tried to install the latest updates... the same problems occured.

Even called Customer Support at Hercules... all they said was, that I did something wrong. After that I tried contacting Fujitsu Siemens. They offered at least some information and updates.

Due to the really disapointing answer from Hercules, I am never going to buy any of their products again.

Verdict

The Hercules 3D Prophet 9800 XT Classic's screaming performance and thoughtful bundle justify its lofty price, but only if you must have the very fastest graphics.

Typical price

£ 355
