May be getting an Asus P3V4X mobo with VIA chipset so was wondering if there are any compatibility problems with a Voodoo2 SLI setup? Remember reading about this somewhere in these forums but it's probably buried deep in the archives.

Intel SE440BX P3 450 256MB 80GB SSD Asus V7700 GF2 64mb SB 32pnp 350W 98SE
MSI x570 Gaming Pro Carbon Ryzen 3700x 32GB DDR4 Zotac RTX 3070 8GB WD Black 1TB 850W

I thought I had issues with VIA while others had more luck, it turned out to be the V2+Radeon combination though, so I guess it's okay. Personally I quit trying and turned to Intel chipsets.

This is going to be a V2/GF2 GTS combination if that matters any - running Win98SE.

Should be fine. Be sure to avoid SB Live.

Uh-Oh! That was going to be the sound card, but do have a Turtle Beach Montego II so maybe that'll work.
