I've got a Savage4 card too.... It runs 1152x864 at a silky 35 fps.... in OpenGL.... I'd reccomend finding out how to use this with VB. I know it's possible. Check out a game called Infinite Worlds on the web, a game w/ a shareware version (origionally called Mordor) that's made in VB and uses OpenGl for graphix. PS- HalfLife & OpenGl = SWEETGAMEPERFORMANCE. (even in VB!)
