Well this week i trashed mi 2 voodo2's had a Voodoo3 3000 for a day
and then exchanged it for the Viper770 out of dissapointment,  yep
Viper770 is cheaper than the Creative Labs TNT2  and obviously same
performance. Well impressed with the card, stonking perfomance in
Direct3D and awesome on new games like Rally Champioship and Quake3
arena demo, even better processor occupancy in GP2. If youre a GPL
lover then perhaps stick with the SLI . The new creative labs
anihiltator(Geoforce chipset) is out shortly but wait for the pro
which comes out mid december which has proper ram see

Just my two pennies worth!

I'm still using a TNT 1 and a single 12 meg Voodoo 2.
I was thinking about getting either a V3 or TNT2, but decided to just
wait it out for the next generation cards since my current cards still
seem to serve me well.
I'm not really biased toward either company, but the Voodoo
architecture is really starting to look like its been around too long.
Seems like quite a few new games don't run right on them.

I'll probably snag a Geoforce and keep the V2 for GPL.
