 	Hi all... I want to know your opinion from two cutting-edge video boards.
Maybe you can tell me something that here in Spain we don't know. I have the
ATI 3D Xpression+ card w/ 2 MB of SDRAM, that works quite fast, but now I have
the possibility of change it for a Matrox Mystique w/ 2 MB of SGRAM or a Matrox
Millennium card w/ 2 MB of WRAM (for this one I have to pay about 50 dollars
more)... now my question is: if I will use the graphic card for 3D games
(Quake, Duke3D, Monster Truck Madness...) flight simulator soft and for
Windows95 applications like Adobe Photoshop 4.0, which is the better option? I
heard that the Mystique card is fastest in 3D graphics and reports better
benchs over DOS tests... is it true? I know that the Millennium is really fast,
but is it SO fast? If you can help me, please send me an e-mail to:
gal...@redestb.es 
Thanks to all :-)
