Buying new computer-what does it take to run CPR?

by Don Burnett » Mon, 17 Nov 1997 04:00:00

I bought a new Dell 233 mmx system with 32 mb sdram app 4 months ago. If I
had waited till now, I'd try to swing at least a 233 mhz PII, or a 266. I'd
also recommend getting a good 3d graphics card, in your case,  I'd
recommend a 3dfx card . I run the Sierra rendition card in mine, mainly
because of Nascar 2. I wouldn't hesitate to get one of the 3dfx add on
boards though.

Look for the Canopus Pure 3D.  6 MB memory (4 for textures) 3DFX (not Rush)
Alliance 2D accelerator as well as TV outs.  I think SRP is $179 but not
sure.  Check it out.
I believe website is www.canopuscorp.com
