I just bought a MaxiGamer 3D2 for my AMD K6-2 300 system with a similar
configuration to yours. I paid $99 only a month ago not expecting it to go
lower but at $89, it's an even better deal. In fact if I were you, I'd buy
two and link them together via SLI. I decided against the Banshee because I
saw that benchmarks with the K6-2 and Banshee were slower than K6-2 and
Voodoo2. If you buy two cards, you will have the fastest 3D currently
available on the market. The only reason I didn't buy two was because I don't
think I need that much speed yet. Probably the longer you wait, the cheaper
they will get especially after Voodoo 3 arrives. At that point, you should be
able to buy Voodoo2 SLI for around $150 or less. But if you can't wait, I'd
recommend the MaxiGamer 3D2. It is also the only card that can run at
1024X768 without Z- buffering. Hope my advice will help make your decision
easier.  dreamlogic@nixspamsprintmail.com wrote:
