S3 ViRGE

ViRGE DX 4MB

The S3 ViRGE (or just ViRGE for short) is one of the most popular older PCI graphics cards, mostly because it just works. The ViRGE is basically a Trio with added 3D capabilities, but it's 3D capabilities were so poor, that it was (at the time it was new) called a 3D Decelerator. It comes with either 2MB or 4 MB and is mostly made for PCI slots. It offers great DOS compatibility and good compatibility within Windows. It's only problem is that for Windows, it's overshadowed by the Voodoo 3's.
