But when I ran clock.exe to test it's driving frequency distribution, I never could get any number higher than 48Mhz. If clock.exe is correct, then I WON'T buy Boca card just because it's inexpansive. For high resolution, you definitely need 62Mhz, 65Mhz, and in the case of Everex VRAM ViewPoint ET4000 SVGA, higher than 70Mhz. (but you pay $$$$ for it) Too bad I didn't have my unix box handy when I was testing this Boca card, so I won't claim absolute sureness.
