Hi Hugo
The GeForce series are much newer cards than the TNT's. They support
newer DirectX functions in windows games. Furthermore, their clock
frequency is higher and they provide faster texture rendering. A simple
app that will show you the difference is glxgears, but if you really
want to know what it's about, go ahead, download the Quake 3 arena demo
