Performance
Compared to
other 64 MB GeForce cards, the SUMA Platinum 64
MB GeForce performs right on par. The similarities between the
speeds are most likely a product of the similarities between the
card designs, as the SUMA uses NVIDIA's reference design and the
ASUS uses a slightly modified version.

Price
The 64 MB
GeForce seems like it is going to be one of the lower priced
64 MB GeForce cards on the market. The corner cutting made by
not including a software bundle and TV-out features is made up
for by a lower price tag.

6.0

Drivers
The standard
NVIDIA reference drivers is the driver set we have come to expect
to see on many GeForce cards. The Platinum 64 MB GeForce is no
different on this front.

5.0

Features
The feature
set of the SUMA Platinum 64 MB GeForce is rather poor. What SUMA
gained in being first on the market, it lost in terms of additional
features. TV-out would have made for a more feature rich card.
The heatsink,
on the other hand, may not look like much but quite obviously
it performs like much. Cooling the GPU is essential and it seems
that SUMA has done a good job of doing that.

Retail
Availability
It is yet
to be seen how many of the SUMA Platinum GeForce cards are going
to make it to the US market. In Asia, SUMA has been slowly expanding
the area to which they sell the card. Who knows how slowly the
move to the US market will take. We can only guess that retail
availability will not be extremely high due to the fact that SUMA
is a new company in the US market and suppliers may be hesitant
on providing this product.

Documentation
& Software Bundle
Although the
manual for the SUMA Platinum 64 MB GeForce is as extensive as
it need be, the software bundle is missing. The majority of other
cards on the market come with some type of bonus software to make
your purchase a bit easier, it is too bad that SUMA did not include
such luxuries.

I have been reading these old articles for a while now, I do wonder how did they even managed to overclock cpu core & memory core separately? Wish I could knew that.
