Same advice here, or another choice is the new Voodoo3. The cheaper route
is going to be the Voodoo2 probably, search the newsgroups and you'll see a
lot of Voodoo2 owners are upgrading to Voodoo3, and selling their cards
pretty cheap. I've seen them go for around $50-$75, and they can be had new
for about $129 retail, less at online retailers.
Either will run both GPL and N1999 very well on that system, a very close
match to mine.
