<14 year olds know enough to go out and buy a Voodoo 2 (or two of them) and pair it with their K6-2 if they really want the best performance.>

I've always wondered about this sort of setup. Not only does the two Voodoo2 card setup take up two PCI slots, but you'll also need a third card which does your normal 2D graphics. That should cost at least $250, and don't forget about the two extra PCI slots that you now used up.

Or, instead of three cards, you can get a single Riva TNT card for about $100, then pair it up with a Celeron and a Slot 1 motherboard. But I guess 14-year-olds like to spend $150 more on a dead-end PCI solution.
