If your video card supports Open GL, then you can probably avoid getting a
3dfx card.  But you'll still get better 3d performance going with a Voodoo
2 card, and it'll support ALL the 3d standards (Glide, 3dfx, Open GL, and
Direct 3D) and give better performance than your current card.  I'd get
one if I were you.
