Actualy, the P3 is cheapeaper than the P2, Intel wants to make some more industry waves, and to make their new instructions industry-recognised. TNT2 is faster than TNT1, asuming of course that you did not blow out the TNT2, or something. TNT2 drivers should not be used for TNT1, nor should visa-vera, it was just a quick fix, they did not want to be behind Voodoo3 for too long. Last, If I had a TNT1, I would go out and get myself a Voodoo Banshee 16mb, it is the best card I have used yet, almost as fast as Voodoo3, runs cool, overclocks, cheap, sounds like the Celeron, doesn't it?

why dont the just make a dual AGP mobo then i vould get a voodoo3 3000

and cobain the P3 is NOT cheaper than the P2 the p3 450 is almost 100$ expensier than the P2 450

uhhhhhh... agp... accelerated graphics port. you only need one till the new dual tnt2 technology comes out. and when that happens there will be a whole new chipset such as the coppermine cause of the 4x agp tech and then they will probably add another agp slot.

ehhh geronimo what are u thinking what is i want a tnt2 and a voodoo3 then it wont work until they have 2 AGP slots on mobos

Could somebody elaborate on the comment to use the TNT2 drivers for a TNT card? Do you know of any links that could give me more info on information you are basing this on?
