Dude,

You better get your head out of your ass...I've got both the original
Diamond Voodoo 1, and a Metabyte 12Meg Voodoo2...Comparing one to another is
like comparing apples and oranges. The Voodoo2 is much, and I do mean much
better than the Voodoo 1. We're talking like a 40 FPS difference without
tweaks. As far as which card to get, this depends on what you're looking
for. I, personally, will get the TNT-2 when it comes out. I would have
purchased a TNT, except it really didn't offer a HUGE upgrade over the
Voodoo2. However, if the TNT-2 delivers as advertised, it sounds like a
winner. You may want to wait for the Voodoo3, as it will probably be out by
March. If you have to get a card right now, go with the TNT. You can get one
now for ~ $120.
