I have a Geforce 2 Ultra and it shot craps on me today. After talking to
tech support to determine that the card is indeed dead, and finding out that
I won't get the warranty replacement until Monday at the earliest via FedEx
(it is Thursday night/Friday morning now), I resurrected my old VooDoo 3
3000 out of its resting place in the bottom desk drawer and installed it in
my PC. After going to www.3dfx.com and downloading the latest drivers and
installing them, I had 3 hours of flawless EQ action in Lake of Ill Omen,
one of the laggiest zones in the game (DING 25!).
.
If you ask me (yeah, I know, you didn't ask me, but oh well), I think the
Voodoo 3 looks better than the Geforce 2 Ultra. Maybe it doesn't _perform_
better -- I know the specs are far inferior -- but the images on the monitor
sure look better, and EQ behaved better.
