Iggy (love that handle, by the way,)
The Hercules board is great for GPL, especially since the native
Rendition acceleration looks better than the 3dfx version. That said, a
good upgrade for you would be twin 12meg Voodoo2 boards running in SLI
mode. You could then run at 1024x768 and framerate should still be good
with your rig. Plus, with both the Herc for Rendition, and dual Voodoo's
in your beast, you can pretty much rock to anything that strikes your
fancy. Killer setup, no doubt about it.
All the best, Mike
