Ett gäng 3dfx kort

Mitt första spel kort var ett 3dfx righteous 3D 4mb som jag körde när Quake 1 var nytt. Kopplade in kortet och installerade drivisarna. Startade spelet i helt otroliga 640x480 pixlar och man flög nästan av stolen för att det var så snyggt och flöt så bra. Saknar att jag slängde kortet, hade velat rama in det på väggen

Goa minnen hehe. Ägde en P133 med 8 mb ram som jag uppgraderade till 24 mb och 3dfx. Datorn fick sig en rejäl hästspark i spelväg efter det:)

Vad pratar du om? Voodoo 5 fanns i tre varianter, dock fanns bara ett på marknaden innan 3DFx konkade men detta (Voodoo 5 5500) såldes i tusentals exemplar bara i Sverige.

- Voodoo5 5000 - 2 GPU'er, 32 MB VRAM (hann inte ut på marknaden)
The unreleased Voodoo 5 5000 was to be similar to the 5500 but with half of the RAM capacity (32 MB total).

- Voodoo 5 5500 - 2 GPU'er, 64 MB VRAM (såldes massor)
In games, the Voodoo 5 5500 is (unlike its predecessors in the Voodoo 3 line) able to outperform the NVIDIA GeForce 256 and ATI Rage 128 MAXX, but unfortunately Voodoo5 5500 was much too late to market and was up against the new GeForce 2 GTS and Radeon DDR instead. The GeForce2 GTS was both able to outperform the Voodoo 5 and cost less than half for NVidia to produce as compared to the Voodoo 5.

- Voodoo5 6000 - 4 GPU'er, 128 MB VRAM (det är DETTA kort du pratar om)
The Voodoo 5 6000 is the high-end product in the Voodoo5 line. It uses 4x 166 MHz VSA-100 processors, each with its own 32 MB of 166 MHz SDRAM, resulting in the first 128 MB graphics card (consisting of sixteen 8 MB chips).

Approximately 1000+ test cards were produced. Because the card used more power than the AGP specification allowed for, a special power supply called Voodoo Volts was included with it. This is an external device that connects to an AC outlet. Most of the prototype cards (the card never actually made it to market) could also utilize two standard internal power supply drive power connectors.

With regards to performance test results showed that the Voodoo 5 6000 outperformed the GeForce 2 Ultra and Radeon 7500. In some cases, the 6000 was shown to compete well with the GeForce 3. However, the production costs of the card were simply too large and by the time the card was ready to launch 3DFx finally folded and was bought up by NVidia.
