Here is My System :


K6-2 450 on an Iwill xa100plus Motherboard
128mb or ram
Sound Blaster Live
3d Prophet 2mx
I have 2 Lan Cards

3d Mark score is 2456

Is there something I need to set in bios? What other things can I try?

Also I had a Voodoo 3 3000 in this system before and it did the same thing. Only thing was my fps in unreal t were around 45.

The voodoo3 could do glide witch is what made your ut performance decent. Your scores are normal for a k6-2.

So I will have to buy a new motherboard and cpu. To get full use of the card? Who makes the best motherboard then? I was thinking about making a 1000mz. Any ideas?

I agree, a 600 duron would allow your card to live up to it's potential if you want. Go with an AMD chip if you don't have money to burn. MSI makes a good board, the Pro2 but i got an Asus A7 and i'm happy. Abit has a good socket A solution too.
