I use it at 1152x900x32 mode, although. Have you tried this color depth? If the Millennium II was my first choice, it's because I'm very impressed with the Millennium I. OTOH, I'm not sure if AGP has clear advantages over PCI. I suppose that AGP should improve the speed of transfers between the CPU and the adapter's video RAM...
