Squirrellz's Full Review: Creative Labs Creative 3D Blaster Savage4
This card is decent. 2D performance is good. 3D is ok, not great though.

The card comes with a decent software bundle, none of which I have ever used because I don't watch DVD's on my computer.

The driver tweak utility is OK, allowing you to change the core/memory speed.

I have had some problems with some of my games, including Total Annihilation Kingdoms and Quake3.

In Kingdoms, for two of the races, when they are building, the sparkle effects are black boxes instead.

In Quake3 I can see other people and their shadows through the walls. This little bug actually helps me a bit so I can’t complain.

The Win2k support is OK. The drivers are still beta so there are performance issues. Quake3 runs horrible under Win2k.

Overall, I could only recommend this card if you are on a budget. Else get a GeForceGTS2, Savage2000 or a TNT2-Ultra.
