I currently have a Pentium 1 200mhz with a Diamond Monster 3D Voodoo 1 card installed. Everything works perfectly. That being said, a friend of mine recently gave me a Diamond Monster 2, 12mb voodoo 2 card and I'm tempted to give it a go but I'm not sure this P200 system is worth bothering with. The Voodoo 1 card took a bit of work to get to run properly, and from what I've seen I might see some improvement in overall visual quality with some glide games but the P200 is probably going to bottleneck the voodoo 2 card. Kinda sucks, was hoping maybe I could get Unreal to run a little better with it but the Pentium 200 will probably hold me back regardless of which card I slot in.
Do you guys think it's worth swapping the cards or should I just stick to the 4mb voodoo 1? Further, would I have to reinstall drivers specific for the voodoo 2 or would the general 3DFX drivers (specifically vg-w9x-3.00.01) work for the voodoo 2 card?
