Haven't seen it on a Voodoo-3 but I would guess it looks just as good!

With N3, in D3D mode, my frame rate with everything maxed at 1024x768 would get
as low as 10fps and hang around 15-17fps for the most part.
The same scenario with the Voodoo II yields 30fps all around except in the most
busy areas where it never gets below 23fps. Plus it looks just a tad crisper to
me (the anti-aliasing I assume).
What really has blown me away are the new sounds. In traffic, I really feel like
I'm right in there. Sometimes it's almost deafening and the echo around the
***pit is downright scary.
I must also admit that with all previous Nascar products, I just about NEVER
finished a full-length race without causing at least one accident, almost always
due to the computer taking ridiculous action and lines. On my first race at
Atlanta tonight, set to 100% distance, I didn't have a single incident. Things
got hairy and there was quite a bit of touching, but the AI drivers acted as if
they knew I was there and adjusted accordingly. Awesome.
Yeah, this doesn't surprise me because the G200 is a pretty poor "3D
accelerator" card. Its a great 2D, but its 3D components were really
lacking. On the other hand, the G400 should really look good with most D3D
titles especially as you increase the resolution.
