For all those people who are screaming bias, please rationally explain to me how the Voodoo3 at 183mhz will be better then TnT2 at 175, provided they can both ship.

Voodoo3 will allow playable framerates at 1280x1024 and probably 1600x1200.

Many players who visit my server have commented about the slow framerate the current TNT cards give them as well as the dark gamma problems. The hard-core Q2 players aren't happy with it.

Again, how quickly people forget. Anyone besides me remember what clock rate nVidia promised the original TNT would ship at? Have we all forgotten that the didn't deliver on their promises then? 3Dfx has always delivered parts that met or exceeded their stated specifications. You can be sure that the V3 will perform as advertised - maybe even better if the rumors on agn3d.com are to be believed.
