*IF* the 3dfx patch (if it exists) ever comes out, the 3dfx will most likely be the best 3D card for N2. Until then a very fast 2D card should do the trick. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. >Can anyone tell me what is the best 3D video card for running Nascar Racing >2.Thanks.
Actually, the best 3d card for Nascar2 right now is the new Hercules Thriller 3d rendition chip card. It is the latest and greatest in the rendition family, which Nascar2 was written for. You can get it with 8mb ram, or a stripped down version without tv out with 4mb ram. It's also a great 2d card. I am using one of the original rendition chip cards, the Sierra Screamin3d, mfg by Canopus, and the graphics in rendition are awesome. When I see a 3dfx version of N2, and am able to compare it to rendition, I will gladly state if it is superior or not. -- Don Burnette I-65 Racing Dburn on Ten > *IF* the 3dfx patch (if it exists) ever comes out, the 3dfx will most > likely be the best 3D card for N2.

I have a Stealth II s220 with the Rendition 2100 chip and it works great! Cant beat it for $90 (after the $20 rebate from diamond).

I had Stealth s220 and it was junk. I just purchased the Thriller and it installed with no problems. I set clouds to Auto and set Frame rate to go off at 30. Nascar2 never missed a beat. Clouds never went off. It works in Rendition DMA mode and Rendition. Great card. Jim

Ray, for N2 you can't go wrong with either the Hercules Thriller 3d 8meg or the Jazz Multimedia Outlaw 3d 8meg. N2 will rock right along on either one of these cards. Throw in one of the new Voodoo2 cards alongside and you probably wouldn't have to upgrade for a year or so. All the best, Mike Davis -- Michael S.
