KNOWLEDGE LEVEL: I'm New!

PROBLEM: Hardware
COMPUTER TYPE: Diamond
MODEL: Fire GL
RAM: 8meg
OS VERSION: Windows 98
SERVICE PACK:

DESCRIPTION:

I am currently using Diamond Fire GL 1000 Pro AGP bus Video graphic card with 8 mbs sdram on board.

Can I add another 3d add-on Video card in my unused PCI bus slot?I am thinking of Diamond 3D 2 with voodoo2 chipset.

Can they work together in Harmony?..From the AGP bus to the PCI bus?

If so,how many mbs of ram do you suggest for the 3d add-on(Monster 3D 2) video adapter to work with my currently 8 mbs 2d/3D AGP graphic card(Diamond Fire GL 1000 Pro).

And again which preferable bus sequence do I need to adjust in my CMOS setting..From AGP to PCI or from PCI to AGP?

An Advance thanking to you if you reply.

Adam:

YES!!!! I would highly recomend getting a Monster 3D II w/ 8mb or 12mb RAM (you probably will not see much difference between the two). And yes....the Fire GL and the Monstor will work as well together as Mark McGwire and a baseball bat.

Sincerely,
James
