Tip -
When using
the AMD tweaked Quake 2 Version, replace both the contained
MiniGL files opengl32.dll and 3dfxglam.dll with
the V1.47 (K6-2) or V1.49 (Athlon) respectively for further
increased performance and 3dNow!-Support !

Overall
Note -
The 3dfx
MiniGL Drivers are suitable only for old Games, that have support
for those.
There, it
can offer maximum performance and is still the primary choice.
For
fully OpenGL based Games, use the 3dfx OpenGL ICD, WickedGL or MesaFX instead.
