I worked at CompUSA the summer of 1999 and there were demo machines for the Voodoo3 and TNT2, and what I remember most was that the Voodoo looked muddy while the TNT2 looked crisp. Frame rates weren’t different enough to have a clear winner, since there were 3 different Voodoo models and Nvidia had the ultra. I ended up getting a TNT2 Ultra and loved it. Never had any compatibility issues that I remember.

I owned a Voodoo 3, while all my friends had TNT2's. My experience was the opposite. Not sure if it was the handling of anisotropic filtering, or some kind of texture filtering - but my Voodoo 3 was notably sharper on all the games of the time.

It may even vary depending on the game, the settings, whether D3D, OpenGL or GLide were used or which versions of the drivers were installed.

For sure, and I'm pretty certain I also tweaked the hell out of 3dfx tools too.
