Gambit,

While agree there are some interesting points to the Power VR chip it does not enjoy the widespread support of Voodoo (somewhere around 80% right now). As a gamer and a Voodoo2 owner I can tell you performance, appearance and compatibility are all very important.

From Tom's site:

PowerVR's PCX1 and PCX2 chips are quite powerful 3D chips, but the cards that use them are highly incompatible. I've seen only very few games that run on this chip properly. If the PCX engine is used directly, the games look awesome though.

you can expect 3Dfx's 'Glide' engine staying supported by many games for a long time.
