Voodoo 2's were sold with only 2 different ram capacity's 8mb & 12mb, if you sli 2 x 8mb = 16mb or 2 x 12mb = 24mb.
Vodoo 2 cards have no 2d capability so you have to use them with an existing 2d card in your system using a vga pass-through cable, if you sli 2 cards you will also need a sli cable to connect the 2 cards together.

Hope this helps.

These are a pair of Diamond Monster 12mb Voodoo 2s. You need a VGA cable only to connect the 2D adapter to the master Voodoo 2 (usually the one in the upper PCI slot). You already have the SLI cable connecting the two voodoo 2s together, so you should just be able to install it just like it is, hook up the VGA cable (a monitor extension cable will work, if you don't have the original), install drivers and go.
