As the results show, there's nothing to get excited about regarding the new drivers right now. But shortly into the New Year, several titles will be begin to filter out that do showcase the multi-texturing abilities of both the Riva TNT and Voodoo2-equipped cards in DX6.

For now, enjoy the already strong multi-texturing performance that your Voodoo2 or TNT card has (in all upcoming Quake2 and Unreal-based games like SiN and Half-Life where thanks to OpenGL, multi-texturing is enabled), and try not to believe everything you read from video card manufacturers.....That's why we're here.
