I talked with a tech representative from Nvidia about this 
myself.  He told me that windows performance of their card 
would be compropable to current accelerators.  I asked 
specifically about my ATI Mach64, to which he responded that 
his card would indees equal or surpass the performace of the 
ATI card in windows, and be similar in DOS performance (not the 
Mach 64's strong point).  This might not really matter though 
because it would seem that DOS's days are numbered as more 
releases come in the form of Win95 enhanced or Win95 specific.
