I currently using complete hp pc with a p3 800 mhz and a riva tnt 2. The cpu and the gpu are going to be replaced eventually with a coppermine 1 ghz and a gf2/3 or 4 respectively. I am also on the hunt for voodoo 3 card as alternative for gf cards. Owning a voodoo system is childhood dream of mine. Anway while on the hunt for a voodoo 3 I found a voodoo 2 banshee card that is cheaper than usual . While still not cheap it is bargain compared to the normal prices.
As far as I know the Banshee is a bit weaker than the stardard V2 and is absolutely no mach for the Voodoo 3 which is still my favourite.
But would you guys say that the Banshee could be considered as decent starting point for the world of glide gaming for games from 1997 und 1998?
I could still sell it when I see a Voodoo 3 at good price.
The reason why I am asking is the opinions on that card differ. Some say it is horrible while others say it is decent.
Would you think that a Banshee would be useful for 97 and 98 games with a rather powerful cpu like the coppermine p3 800 (and later 1 ghz coppermine)
Would be pleasing hearinga few opinions.
