For our tests, we decided to compare the T400 with two other cards with supposedly similar performance, both from ABIT: Their original GeForce card, the Siluro GF256, and their original MX, the Siluro GF2 MX. Their specifications break down as

We also decided to test all three cards on two different systems, one with an Athlon, the other with a Pentium 4. Here are the
