Sounds like you would be the perfect candidate for the Canopus
Pure3d/Total3d combo. I have the Intergraph Intense3d Rendition card
and am very pleased with the addition of the Canopus Pure3d/3dfx. The
Canopus Total3d is said to be slightly faster than the Intense3d. Upon
receiving my Pure3d, there was a promo offer included for the purchase
of a Total3d for $149.50 which includes the following:
-Complete intergration w/ Pure3d's TV-out.
-Rendition Verite 2d/3d accelerator
-4 MB EDO DRAM
-Included LCD shutter glasses
-Spatializer 3D stereo post-processor
-5 accelerated games, including MDK: Mission Laguna Beach (works with
the glasses), Descent II: Destination Quartzon 3D (works w/glasses),
Whiplash (full version, works w/glasses), IndyCar Racing II (full),
Quake (shareware).
*Note the TV-out feature(s) when pairing with the Pure3d. I would
checkout www.pure3d.com and give them a call if your interested and
verify pricing for the pair or if the offer is still good after
purchasing just the Pure 3d initially. Note: The downside is the Pure
3d (Aprox. $180) is currently on high demand and may not be available
for immediate purchase.
