In Need for appropriate 3DFx-Card

I'm looking for improvement of the framerates of games like FS98, Flight
Unlimited II and Nascar2. Which 3D-Card supports all of these games and
will work best with my (not that new) system?

I have a P166MMX with 128 MB RAM and an internal S3 ViRGE 325 PCI
graphics card.

Help in any way is apreciated!

Greetings
Thomas Guenther

On my 266PII I'm still using an "old" Diamond Monster3D Ver I, works fine
with FS98, FUII, and (not Nascar2) Andretti Racing. With the presence of all
the Voodoo II cards on the market now, this older version should be
available quite cheaply I'd think.

My personal opinion for what it's worth: Monster 3D I or II by
Diamond...Great card!
