Hi there
i replaced my Creative Labs TNT 1 with a Voodoo3 3000 today.
My Comp: C 300@450, 64 ram, SB16, etc
And WHAT a difference !!
With the TNT my fps in Monza (all graph.opt. on,19 cars) was 18-20 at the
start and 33-36 in the race.
Now: 26-29 start, otherwise 36,9-37 all around.
BTW: Nice mirrors :)
NASCAR3 runs also WAY better.
So, if anyone is in doubt what card to go with: Voodoo 3
Greetings
Mark

Not to mention it runs the same at 374 as it does at 450. A few people (inc AH)
still run the thriller for GPL..

At 1280 x 1024?

Uh, you should mention that overclocking is not guaranteed, nor a right, and
that not everyone has the same luck when doing this.
I don't have a problem with people that overclock their systems. I DO have
a problem with overclockers that only boast, and don't tell both sides of
the story.

Thriller card at *that resolution*.

Me too, but at 800x600 max (same CPU). ;)
