Well, it's a Riva *TNT* card, the successor to the Riva 128. 2x AGP, 16MB,
excellent 2D and 3D (rivalling Voodoo 2 performance) and the ability to cope
with 32-bit colour and resolutions over 800x600 (with v. little loss of
speed). Yeah, the TNTs are kick-ass cards.

(They'd better be as I plan on buying one today!)
