You mean, buying a 3Dfx card would only be worthwile for F1RS?? Or do you ONLY
play F1RS and don't want to buy a 3D card just for that one game?

You have to remeber that he already have a TNT which in most cases is at least as fast
as a (single) Voodoo2 and supports higher res. So if F1RS is the only game that
doesn't work then thats not a very good reason to but another 3D card.
Enough of this.
Have a nice day.

Sorry, but up to now and for quite some time, the addition of a 3Dfx
card will
increase the number of supported 3D games dramatically. There a quite a
big number
of games for which you better have one supporting Glide...

Oh please, don't tell me when to end the thread, thank you!

F1RS with 1.09 patch shoudl work with TNT, i recall?

In any case, it works fine with MGPRS2.
