I'm going to start putting together a new Dual Socket8 Pentium Pro build with the ASUS P65UP5 board.
There are 5 PCI slots available, 3 ISA slots and 1 Asus Media Slot, no AGP.
I have the following options:
1. Voodoo3 2000 PCI, Matrox M3D PowerVR, 3COM NIC 100mbit, S-ATA/SCSI controller. 4 PCI slots
2. Voodoo5 5500 PCI, Matrox M3D PowerVR, 3COM NIC 100mbit, S-ATA/SCSI controller. 4 PCI slots
3. S3 Savage 4 PCI, Voodoo2 SLI, Matrox M3D PowerVR, 3COM NIC 100mbit, S-ATA/SCSI controller. 6 PCI slots (meaning I would have to use an ISA network card or use the onboard IDE).
4. Some combination above with some other PCI card like: TNT2 m64, Diamond Viper TNT, Matrox Millennium II.
What do you guys think? Personally I feel a Voodoo3 would be the best fit even though I can't play some few Glide games.
