a) Banshee;
b) 2d Card (i.e. Mat4rox G100) + VooDoo2?

If GPL does not used multi-texturing (which I don't believe it does), the
Banshee should be faster than a V2 due to its higher clock rate.  Two V2's
SLI'd probably make up the difference, though there have been conflicting
reports.  There are also conflicting reports as to whether a Hercules Thriller
(verite 2200) is faster than the Voodoo's.  I think all are reasonably close
to each other such that one shouldn't choose based on just this (unless this
is the only game you'll ever play!).  If you were to start from scratch, I'd
suggest a V2 for Glide compatibility and probably a TNT for all its features
that not *all* 3dfx's have which *may* become important in future games
(32-bit, 16MB, multi-texture, very hi res support, AGP2x).
