I need suggestions for a PCI video card to put in my old K6-2 system. I want to spend $120 or less and it has to be PCI. What card will give this system the most (gaming) bang???
These things are a pain, they use slow 64 bit memory, and aren't worth your time or money. The Voodoo3 3000 PCI is a great choice, nice solid, stable card that will work right out of the box.
A regular TNT2 might be three or four FPS faster than a V3 3000 however an M64 will not be faster at all. Savage4's are faster than M64's. These are definatly a card to avoid.
Actually I think the Voodoo line has better 3DNow! support, so it'd probably perform faster on a K6-2 system. The M64 doesn't use 64-bit memory, it just has a 64-bit memory bus.
STB is not the only manufacturer who makes Voodoo 3 cards. Falcon Northwest makes a Voodoo3 3500 which is hella-fast, clocked over 200 Mhz and there is one other company who makes them as well - can't remember the name but they also made a Voodoo2 SLI that was a single board... agg whats that name. Oh well.
