Gee I wonder how good voodoo2 will be in quake 3 since it does'nt support true color. How about voodoo 3 oops no true color again. ATI rage fury is the way to go screw voodoo and there wussy 16 bit color only support. ATI rage Fury is the only way to go :) All of this is based on my humble yet mouthy opinion. Peace.

What the hell is wrong with 16bit colour, my desktop uses it and everything looks fine. Voodoo 3 has some dual 32bit texture rendering chips or something so it looks true colour anyway for some reason. >Gee I wonder how good voodoo2 will be in quake 3 since it does'nt >support true color.

Ati rage is only rage of words!!! RAge PRO - is rubish chipst i've ever played.... 128's is quite all right..., but don't trust ATI in 3D graphics!!! What YoU realY whant is TNT, Riva's new chipset, currently the best on the market. It'hs got the TwiNTexel engine (two texturing engines)like voodoo2 does, but peforems much beter, especialy on high rez. nVidia (Riva) is coming up with a new chipest, that will support both Intel's Katmai (P3) and AMD's 3D now! THIS WOULD BE A REAL HELL Don't forget you need quite a good CPU for this card John Carmack (id's lead programmer) said nVidia's TNT to be the best chipsets, he ever seen... So he will support TNT in Q3 beter then others. As for the card themselves ther's a big choise; I like Diamond (Viper 550), it done the best out of others, but it wouldn't differ much from STB's, Creative's or somebody else's. [_exT]

well you are a bit misinformed there. The best card for Quake3 which is available (well sorf of) right now IS the Rage Fury. Nobody said the Rage Pro is worth shit. They are like 2 generations between them. Some cards (TNT2, Savage4) have yet to be released which could be the Q3 accelerators of choice.
