Im considering upgrading to the following spec:-

AMD K6-2 450
128Mb PC100 RAM
Voodoo Banshee 2D/3D card

Anyone got a similar system, and if so, what performance can I expect from
GPL?

Thanks in advance for your time

Craig

You might consider that the 2D/3D Voodoo III's are showing up already, and most
places will have them by month's end.  The 2000's are going for about $100 and
the 3000's for $140.  I'd wait the week or so, myself.  Check 'em out on
shopper.com.

When I bought my Voodoo II it cost 220 so why now is the Voodoo 3, which is
even faster, selling for such a low price?!

  H'mmm, you must have paid over the odds for your Voodoo II, I purchased mine
from PC-World (and they ain't cheapskates) for 179 (Diamond) one week after
release date!
Computer kit is coming down in price.... look at CPU's... new ones are twice the
speed of its predecessor and half the cost!  Good news for use users.... who's
complaining?
