What 3D accelerators were available when Quake 2 was released?
I'm trying to remember what card I had back in 1997 (?) so I can recreate a bit of my childhood. For some reason I think it was a Canopus Pure3D but they are selling for INSANE prices on eBay...
What would be considered the best 3D accelerator for that generation? I'm pretty sure I want a Voodoo-series since that is what I remember but I'm not sure if a Voodoo 2 is the same as a Voodoo 1 (Canopus Pure3D) except faster?
(EDIT: Yikes! It looks like Voodoo 2 cards are pretty darn expensive too... Ugh!)
