These are now being offered on the internet for $89 (after rebate).
Right now I own an S220 Stealth 2 and it just doesn't seem to run
modern first person shooters -- the game genre I prefer -- as
adequately as it did when Quake 2 first came out.  I'd like to hear
from current owners of Maxi Gamer 3D2 Voodoo II boards (especially
those with K6-2's) and whether or not they think this is a product of
good performance & quality.  Any regrets?  Praise?  You sure can't
beat the price -- in most cases $50 less than the nearest competitor.
I'll be using this with a K6-2 266 MHz processor (overclocked to 300
MHz) on a Shuttle HOT-569 MB w/ 64 megs ram.  Or should I go for the
Banshee?  Any feedback or advice is welcome

Best,
Thorns
