    I'm buying a configured system from gateway with a p3 600, 128meg ram and I've got the choice of two fairly decent graphics cards ie. Voodoo 3 3000 and Riva TNT 2 - 32meg. I'd instinctively go 4 the riva, but just in case there's some MAJOR difference between it and it's sibling (tnt2 ultra) I thought I'd delve into the infinite library of knowledge that is the boards. So, voodoo or tnt?

    Thanks 4 the help, was probably goin to buy the tnt 2 anyway though. Pity they dont give you a more varied choice instead of a few crappy ATI cards and the two aforementioned spec boosters. Give me a Creative 3D annihilator any day. No, really, please do sunglasses.gif

    BTW, you should have waited before buying the system. It's just gone down by 150 quid. I'm glad my parents procrastinate so much sunglasses.gif

    Kali Gateway used to offer a refund if the price went down within 30 days. Give em a bell and see if they will. If they refuse tell them you don't want it under that same 30 day guarantee and re-order it smile.gif

    They could of course have changed this since I worked for them.
