    I just bought a Velocity 4400 Riva TnT, and it rocks. I keep hearing how the Tnt only really shines on a high end machine, but if that is the case, then it must be unbelievable, because on my Dual P Pro 180Mhz
    it is fast.

    I would go for the Banshee cause it also supports glide. And there are quit a few modern games still using the Glide API like UT.
