HI ppl,I need help choosing...as you may read in the forum,I am building a new 2nd system,in the begining this was meant to be a 3dfx system,powered by my v3 3000 agp,but finding a kt333 was both hard and expensive,so one day I found a DFI Ultra B "damaged",a hot flash and voi la..it is running...and I found a V5500 pci too (65eur)..buuutttt..there is always a but...a friend of mine gave me a ti4200 (it wasn't working..but now it is) and I am a lil confused..the 3dfx games that will play will be q3,q1,ut,nfs porsche,maybe no more...to play css or flat out I will use the ti4200 (I think),now the question is..do I sped 65eur and buy the v5500 pci? (it was my dream) or do I spend 25eur and buy a v3 2000 pci?

I know..but considering that the voodoo may only be used for that games do you think a 40eur more for a v5500 worths?
A v5 5500 pci was my dream.but 65eur is so much money...but I think I will buy it...it a dream in a life time...I already sold my old dreams (2x voodoo 2 boxed) for 40eur :)
