If you just have 300 MHz, then don't buy any TNT. It is a real good chip,
but only if you have at least 400-450 MHz!
I also had a voodoo and I would say that if it isn't absolutly necessary to
free a slot, you shouldn't bother with another video-card. I now have a TNT
(412 MHz CPU) and I must say it looks nice, but it's dammned slow. In some
games my v2 was almost 75% faster than the TNT.
