3d graphics card recomendations

I wish to run Janes USAF and have been told I need a 3d card to do so.
I have been told the Voodoo2, 12mb, PCi will do the job. It fits my budget of under $100 Australian, but other than that I have no idea.
I would appreciate comments on this or any other reccomended cards.
I have a P233MMX, S3 Tri 64+ graphics card with 4Mb, 64mb RAM and a 13Gb Hard Drive.

There are LOTS of video cards out there that are either add-ons (like the voodoo2) or have the 3D accelerator built into one card.

The voodoo2 sounds like a good bet and if the price is right, why not?

If you want to check out a different product line or make, check out some of the nVidia line of cards. Slightly faster than the Voodoos

happy gaming

On your budget/machine, go voodoo 2, anyone disagree?

hmm with that budget I think Voodoo 2 is the best, other wise the next best would be Voodoo3....a bit more expensive but much better and will last you longer.

Hmm, i think you have your answer...

Voodoo3 stinks. I had lots of conflicts and problems, called Voodoo tech support and they told me to buy a different card!

cyderpunk

Hmm, kayton most people are OK with them, maybe a lay-line problem!!!
sramsey, get voodoo 2, close question!
