If papy sims are your priority then get the 8 meg thriller, however if you
also want support for most new game son the market with 3dfx get a voodoo2. I
have been running the thriller for 6-7 months. It improved my p200 but GPL got
really right when I upgraded to a celeron 300a overclocked to 450! now GPL is
unfreaking believable! well worth the $250!
