How can you get the same results on a P100, are'nt you talking about an AGP card? or is it the viper-pci that gets the same results as the new viper agp? Also on the dojo chart it says NO AGP support, does this mean there is no glquake for the diamond viper agp? I guess my big question is, if I get a diamond viper AGP(Riva 128 chipset) on my new PII can I play glquake to satisfaction?
