Alright, so I've decided to take up the mantle of (finally) building a classic rig...or three. Anyway, I went through my big box of parts and came up with the following three video cards:
Diamond Stealth 3D Pro
MSI-8088 (Vanta TNT2/M64) (agp)
PNY Geforce4 MX 400? (pci) (not sure if it's a 440 or 4000, need to pull it out to look)
My question is, which of these three will provide the most compatible and best looking 2D peformance for early/mid 90s DOS games, and early 3D DOS/Win9x games?
My goal is this:
To build a rig to play games of the early multimedia era, early/mid 90s. Video decoding is a plus, smooth play is better. Games like the Journeyman Project, Toonstruck, etc. FMV games without the crap that invaded the console markets.
I know the GeForce is a bit too new and mostly out of the question, and the TNT2 being agp may prove to be a problem on the DOS side.
