F1 Racing simulation question

Hi everyone I bought the F1 Racing simulation from Ubi-Soft and unfortunately i don't have the graphic card to play with it. Can someone help me find the right card (best value for the best price) to be able to play this... I have a PC Pentium 166 with 32Meg with an ATI 3d Rage II. What can i do ? Thanks Eric

Buy a Voodoo Graphics card like the Diamond Monster 3D. They should be quite cheap in the US now. Or a Canopus Pure 3D if you can afford a little more -- Nathan Wong http://www.nectar.com.au/~alfacors - Super Touring - Alfa Romeo - - V8Supercars - CART -

The previous post is right, yet I'd like to add that you shouldn't by a Voodoo II card. Not because they're bad, but your system would not be able to "feed" the Voodoo II board as fast as it needs to be, so the overall improvement compared to a "normal" Voodoo board would only be about 20%. I also experienced a higher framerate after adding another 32MB of RAM. And: DON'T BUY A VOODOO BOARD WITH RUSH-CHIPSET!!!!!! The chipset should be called Voodoo Graphics. Turn off skies and replays, and make sure you installed the latest patch.

I bought the ATI Expert '98, which features the Rage Pro Turbo chip. Sure, it's no VooDoo2, but it was only $85 at Electronics Boutique. I have to turn off the sky and replay, and reduce the draw distance to 1/2, for a good framerate. Works well with NFSII SE and Fox Sports Golf '99, though. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COMING SOON: Everything you wanted to know about the classic 80's movie, "Valley Girl" http://www.valley-girl.com/ Remove "spam-jammer" to reply Peace, love and Monkeemobiles, Galley

From my point of view a 3dfx-card is absolutely recommendable, I would prefer a Voodoo 1 card as a cheap solution or a Voodoo 2 card for Pentium II systems. Voodoo 1 to Voodoo 2 is the difference between good and brilliant. And use directX 6!!

Eric, I am not taking the chance to write you in French since you could be an anglophone with a French name. But there it goes .... If you are from Quebec, Guillemot products would be the best choice for you since they are in Montreal and they have the best prices for Voodoo2 based cards. They have the best prices for 8 and 12 Mb cards.
