I am not sure, AGP version might help as might 8mb, but I benchmarked the videocard, and here is the results using WinTune98
Video(2D) = 31.03614 MPixels/s
Direct3D = 23.86958 MPixels/s
OpenGL = 9.706841 MPixels/s
As you can see the results are pityfully low, compare this to my Voodoo Banshee, which is no speed demon!
Video(2D) = 82.11506 MPixels/s
Direct3D = 177.5825 MPixels/s
OpenGL = 70.3162 MPixels/s
You can see there was no way I could give up that extra performance!
and I am thinking that Voodoo3 3500 would be the king of performance of the support videocards, although I am not sure if the new Voodoo's would also work, depends if they use the same 2d registers.
As for output for the SIS6326 to Windows, lets just say it was very flickery, the update is 30hz to fit the picture on the monitor.
