Jim,
re:>>For Games...maybe a monster sound or maybe an AWE 64 although I don't think the 6x86 supports all the features of the 64. Something about the math coprocessor.<<

thanks for responding, but that's what i don't know. What do i lose with AWE 64 card and a cyrix processor? Can anyone help?
A creative card that supports awe64 has a street price (oem) of $75 to $80. But why spend the money on awe 64 if i'm going to lose significant capability?
So, what do i lose with an AWE 64 and a cyrix processor and is it significant? As long as we're on the topic can anyone recommend an awe64 compatible card (non-creative)

TIA
steve h
