it's killing me using a friends P90(update 120Mhz

) and a 1mb orchid card. gonna try to o\clock the cpu ( without instructions from mobo ) dip switches and jumpers etc. but i figure a mid range vid card will be my best bet. not much cash tho

. tnt2's arnt around anymore got to be a pci card. should i bother upgrading this awsome beast?, whoohooo 40mb edo ram 2gig hdd but the 56k modem is fine for net usage.
theres got to be a card which will play games like hum?

I feel for you.

But that will get you by till you can do better, and it is better than nothing of course.
Maybe a voodoo 2 if you can find one or even a voodoo 3 pci. They should be under $25 at most by now. Or save that to put towards a faster setup.

If the only games you're playin' right now are the oldies (doom, decent, warcraft, duke, lords of the realm, etc.) then that will probably do. Any games requiring a 3d accelerator will probably also require a machine with a little more muslce

.
But as blade said, you could get a pretty good PCI card to use for now, but also to use after you upgrade that beast
