Nothing like starting another Computer Holy War:
For Rendition accelerated games, Rendition rocks. These include:
Nascar 2
Quake
Tomb Raider
etc
3dfx has a huge base, and supports OpenGL which is superior to D3D.
If your main passion is N2, then go Rendition. However, Rendition
sucks wth F1GP2 and a lot of other games.

I would not say it "sucks" with non rendition games. It does "suck" in
regular VGA mode that is a know problem, but to say that it "sucks with
F1GP2 and a lot of other games" doesn't seem to have any merit at all.
In SVGA the Rendition does just fine!
BTW GP2 runs fine on my rendition card!
Goto Pieters Gp2 page, and you will see that video card makes hardly any
difference to GP2

You want to look for good D3D performance and plenty native support. No
card has as good a combination of those factors as 3Dfx.
There you go.
