It's a decent card, but has very poor 3D support. You need to add a
second card to your system (which connects to the Mystique) for about
$200 US.  A Diamond Monster, Canopus Pure or Orchid Righteous 3D will
add 3Dfx compatibilty without compromising any of your present
2D/DOS/Windows performance. Read some of the other posts on the topic
(there are many!).

Most places sell them for $150 or less, not $200.
