What will be the best 3d card on the market to run Q3:Arena? ATI Rage
Fury? Voodoo2-3?, rivaTNT?

And about rivaTNT, what about it? I have a voodoo2, and don't know a lot
about rivaTNT. Which company uses rivaTNT (like Diamond for Diamond
Monster 3d II). Before voodoo2 was out, everybody was talking about
CREATIVE and DIAMOND. But when I hear about rivaTNT, I never hear about
a video card company. What's the most populair rivaTNT based card?

Thanks

id hasn't even finished Q3.  And several next generation cards aren't out on
the market yet (S4, V3, TNT2).  This being the case, how do you expect
someone to answer this question with any degree of
accuracy?

As the game has not been released yet, I can't say for sure, but the TNT2
SLI config from Metabyte will be the fastest for a while, and therefore
will probably be the fastest Q3A setup for a while.
