The Rage has some 3D Support but isnt really fast, i would really suggest getting a better Solution.
Maybe a Voodoo Banshee, or a TNT1/TNT2 Card.

As for the CPU, it depends on what you're planning on using the system for. If it's strictly for DOS gaming, the PMMX might actually be superior (although the K6-2 ~450mhz will offer a bit more performance for titles like Duke3D at high res). Most DOS games don't require that much power, though.

I tested an ATI Rage 128GL / Xpert 128 PCI in my DOS PC here:
More DOS PCI Benchmarks
Not sure if it's equivalent to the Rage XL PCI in DOS, but it's a start. BTW, the 128GL is very fast in DOS in my system.

Going from P233MMX->K6-2 350, what gdjacobs said. To expand a little, you should see noticeable improvement in SVGA games, like Screamer2, System Shock, Descent 2, and Duke3D. VGA games are already fast enough on the MMX that you won't feel any difference on the K6-2.

Here's some percentages:
3DBench: K6-2 350 is 69.5% faster than P233MMX
PCPbench 640: K6-2 350 is 41.1% faster
Doom: K6-2 350 is 14.8% faster
Quake 640: K6-2 is 9.6% faster

To expand on what I said about the PMMX possibly being superior for some DOS games, some PMMX chips as well as many classic Pentiums support additional tuning controls (via SETMUL) when running older, speed sensitive games.

Cool. 😀

Thank you all for replies.
Unfortunately I cannot find a TNT card or Voodoo that is on PCI as I do not have an AGP slot. TNT would have been my first choice. Even if I find one, it would be much more expensive as a Rage one.
I found Ati rage XL at about 10-15$, the same as a K6-2/350

Since you want Win 3.11 compatibility and support for higher resolutions/color depths, an older card with more RAM might be in order. Something like a 4MB S3-something. I have a Virge 325 that came with 4MB and I paid around $10 for it. There are Win3.11 drivers available for it too.

Yeah. You know it better than most with your sick, sick POD MMX beast CPU.

256mb ram on that setup will only slow it down, that board can cache up to 64mb (and a p1 doesn't need more than that).

If you really want to use the 256mb you have to get a k6 cpu with it's own cache like a k6-2+, k6-3 or k6-3+.
Your board has to support the low voltages of the amd's and needs a bios update for the ''+'' cpu's in most cases.

The normal k6-2 does not have cache and will be slow with 256mb.

I know of the cacheable area of 64mb.
Can you recommend a program to test the performance of 256MB RAM vs 64MB? (Prefferably one that runs under Windows 95)

nvidia tnt2 has windows 3.x drivers too and offer decent performance.
Watch out for non-m64 Versions if you want Fun 😀
