Diamond Stealth 3 ROCKS

by stator , May 18 '00
Pros: Price. I picked up this card for a lot cheaper than any other card on the market
Cons: Performs less well at high res's, but i cant run at higher than 800x600 anyway so i dont notice.
This card rocks completely. The diamond stealth 3 is the best of the S4 cards available, and the XTreme is even better. The main thing about this card is its compatability. I bought it last September(99) and have never had any compatability problems. It...

Stealth III S540 is great!

by Cloud_B , Apr 18 '00
Pros: Massive memory bank, huge polygon output, 32bit 3D pipeline
Cons: None!
This is by far the best card I have seen. I had an older RIVA 128ZX humming in my system. it was an integrated AGP so I couldn't get a new AGP card. The Stealth III S540, though, is great for a PCI solution. It has 4 times the memory of my old RIVA, can...

I got my money's worth!

by MrGoogle , Jan 14 '00
Pros: Affordable, easy to install, good 3D support.
Cons: Some games haven't been supporting it.
Before receiving the Stealth III card, I was running an old 4MB video card. Now I see what I was missing! The Diamond Stealth has given me greater detail, and allows me hardware acceleration options. The 32MB of ram certainly help out the situation also....

A very impressive card!

by mullen , Jan 02 '00
Pros: Good Price, Fast.
Cons: Not TNT2, but S3 is pretty good.......
I have to disagree with rpop's opinion. I bought the S540, while debating at the store whether to get the TNT2 M64, or the S3 Stealth III S540. Both have 32MB of RAM, and both I knew were reviewed well. First off all, even thought both cards are...

Stealthy value performance

by Techru , Apr 28 '00
Pros: great price to performance ratio
Cons: none if you're an average computer user
When you purchase budget items, you can almost always count on having to spend more money later. What kind of savings does that really get you? None!
I wanted a new graphics card, with some of the newer features, without spending a fortune. The...

Good Bang For Your Buck

by Wagner167 , Apr 20 '00
Pros: Fast and solid 3D under lower res. 2D is not blazing but good, excellent prices
Cons: 32mb doesn't mean anything, high res. slow downs the card. may not work on all comps.
i have two identical computers both running on a Pentium 166. One has a 3dfx Voodoo 2 with a Diamond Stealth 2000 as 2D. The other is running the Savage 4. The main reason i made this purchase is for improved 3D gaming. And i don't see that, if fact...

It Works For Me!

by Dbbum Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 24 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, Easy To Use And Install
Cons: Slight Prob With Explorer Crash
Even after all the bad things you hear about this Diamond Stealth III S540 32MB AGP Video Card, there are a few people out there that actually have good luck with it. I recently bought this card brand new from a local retailer and it only cost a shade...

Stealth Technology

by ty91011 , Mar 07 '00
Pros: Quality for the price
Cons: A little slow on high framed games
The Diamond Stealth III Graphix Card is the best graphics card out there for $100 or less. It proviedes the most power and clarity out of all the generic and namebrand products. Dual compatibly with ATP-G games and those that need a 405 mbps / cycle...

Stuck in the middle.

by alseltzer , Dec 27 '00
Pros: Reasonable price, and good performance
Cons: Not a high end video card.
I needed a video card which would support at least Direct 3D, with at least 800x600 resolution, and won't cost too much money. I looked around, checked out different cards, starting from krappy Cougar ending with ATI Rage and 3D Prophet. So, why did I...

Best of the bunch of Savage 4 cards

by CyrixDes , Dec 06 '00
Pros: cheap, good brand, best S4 clockspeed
Cons: getting a bit old now
The Savage 4 chipset has been pushed hard by Diamond particularly since S3 and Diamond merged, with S3 making the Savage 4 chipset it is obvious that they would stick with this. Diamond have released 2 cards with the Savage 4 chipset, the Diamond Stealth...

I felt the POWER!!!

by metalgaruramon , Aug 21 '00
Pros: Savage chipset, 16 bits of Ram
Cons: not compatable with Linux
When I got my first computer and started playing games, I never thought I would get a 3d Accelerator card. But most of the games that came out for Computer needed a 3d Accelerator card. Some off them didn't really need it but it looked so ugly and...

You get what you pay for, baby!

by sleepy_g , May 16 '00
Pros: Cheap, 32MB video RAM, decent video performance
Cons: Awful drivers, lockups
I bought my StealthIII from www.pcprogress.com for less than $75. I felt this was a good deal and made since for me since all I have ever had before was an 8MB Matrox Millennium II PCI card which has no real 3D ability.

I picked this card...

Diamond Stealth III s540

by rsotsasn , Jan 06 '00
Pros: Good color
Cons: Performance is a little slow on some applications
This video card gives good 3D graphics and appears to be compatible with most systems. One review which I read on this card stated that the author had had severe problems with it. They preferred the nVidia TNT2 M64. This surprises me because I bought the...

Acceptable video card for the price

by griffeymania , Jan 16 '00
Pros: Memory size, Game quality
Cons: DVD player, potential software conflicts
I purchased the Diamond Stealth III S540 Xtreme (AGP Version) for its decent graphics capabilities and strong DVD playback performance. Before installing the card, I made sure to browse the FAQ section on Diamond's website to avoid potential hardware...

Actually overclocked

by cross_fire , Sep 11 '00
Pros: Cheap, cheap, cheap
Cons: Not the fastest kid on the block
I have had a great experience overall with this card. Although I don't get the FPS I would like while playing Unreal Tournament, I would suggest this card to anyone looking for a value that doesn't do allot of gaming. But the power of this card is...
