I going to upgrade my 120 Intel to a 166 or 200, should I go pentium pro
or mmx..also which 3D acc. would you suggest to run along side of a stb
velocity 3d...one more question..in Multi player mode in nascar 2 is it
possible to modem race from the US to Australia..sounds strange but have
a buddy in the Nascar Wilderness!  Thanks to everyone who responds..cya

I've seen N2 just plain fly on Pentium Pro.  We haven't done much to
accomodate for MMX yet (though I admit I am unaware of this issue with
respect to our products), so any advantage you get there probably wouldn't
be as a direct result of our efforts.  N2 has built in Rendition support.
Again, any other 3D accel performance wouldn't be a direct result of our
work - but you might find some.  I like Rendition and I like 3dfx, but my
opinion is far from canon.

As far as n2 from US to the land of wonder (the land down under)...if you
can support a 9600 baud connection without dropping too much, then you
could probably run a modem race.

But, ultimately, you're the one who will buy your system -- what do *you*
want?

Heh, this is the third different time I've heard this mentioned from the
Papy staff.  IS someone out there working on a 3dfx patch?  I plan on
buying a Rendition card to run along side my Monster 3D but I'd wait if I
knew something was in the works.  Oh well....
