#693754 - 06/25/04 06:16 PM "hot" replacement for TNT in P2/400?

Could someone recommend what might have been the hottest, old-AGP slot card around in, maybe 2002, to replace my tired TNT? I could then search Ebay for it. I need Glide support and TV out, preferably S-Video.

The "STB Velocity 4400 w/TV Out" is in my old Pentium 2(400MHz/128MB/Soyo SY-6BA motherboard) recently replaced by a new Dell and networked downstairs for Web and game duty to a new Sony flatscreen. It will never equal the Dell for Red Baron, et al, and I'm guessing dgVoodoo is way too demanding for a P2/400 *regardless* of the card (impossible with the TNT), so inherent Glide support is important. I haven't been keeping up, but is Voodoo 5 a candidate? Voodoo 3?

Many thanks!

I think a Voodoo 5 would be a great choice. I have one and I'm pretty happy with it-- especially for Red Baron. I got mine on Ebay.

The dgVoodoo should be better than the OpewnGL 07b4 etc.,but the settings are critical and specific for RBII/3D.
