Will I lose the competitive advantage of a TnT over a banshee if I operate the TnT on a 66 mhz bus? (Of a lowly P2 300...). I need good performance (for glide wrapping) so which is better? I'm looking to buy soon...
;-)
Any advice much appreciated in advance...

You will notice a big performace difference between a TNT and a Banshee on a 66 mhz bus. The TNT is a very dependent card, it likes big processors and high bus speeds. The Banshee is not quite as bad, it does more of its processing on board which will free up your processor and bus more. For your system, you should get the best performance from the Banshee.
