Hello I have a P-200MMX with 64 meg of ram. I was wondering which card would you recommend for a system for this. The games that I normally play are NASCAR Racing 2, TOCA, and GPL (when it comes out :0). I have the Voodoo Rush card....its ok but it wont run GPL in 3dfx mode (SVGA is MAJORLY SLOOOOWWW). And I can't enjoy any Rendintion graphics in ICR2 or NASCAR Racing 2. A friend of mine gave me a Screemen 3d card from Sierra....NASCAR RAcing 2 is VERY choppy,,and as in terms of ICR2, I have the original ICR2 that was made for Win 95, and it won't run in Rendition graphics. Any help would be appreciated!! Ed

You have the Screamin' 3D installed? Are you running the RENDDMA when you run NASCAR Racing? I ask, because N2 should be flying on your system with the Screamin' 3D. Consistent mid 20's with almost all details on. I have a Screamin' 3D in my second computer, a 166 w/o MMX, and it delivers smooth framerates. If you're getting a Voodoo1 card, my pick at this point would be the cheapest one you can find. Best Buy had Diamond Monsters for 89 bucks and a 30 dollar mail in rebate. I thought that was a pretty sweet deal. -- http://www.users.fast.net/~fusion1 http://www.off-road.com/~fusion1 (dirt bikes, rat bikes, rental car abuse...)

If you plan to upgrade your system you should think about buying a Voodoo II... Also, man mailt sich... .\\atze [ FmMW2109 - FmMB2139 ] *home* : http://www.home4u.de/buesing/
