Title: voodoo 5 agp and pci together?
Post by: 3dfxdemex on 12 December 2007, 03:24:19
It is possible to connect an AGP and a PCI voodoo cards in the same motherboard, in order to work together?

if a v5 and a second card v2 or v1,that matches and work fine,agp and pci work fine all alone.

With the right drivers, it should be possible.
It's not impossible.

I m not sure what you mean by work together, if you are using a dual monitor setup under 2000/XP then you can have an AGP card driver one monitor and a PCI one drive the other monitor, that will work. The cards cannot both be used to driver a single monitor, you will not get an SLI style setup.

Wow :D these are good news

If HSR could be implemented into SFFT drivers, games can run at highter framerates. Quake 3 its a good example [:p]

Did you try another game in action?. If so, post some screenshots [8D]

I'm trying RTCW with HSR, but this game don't work correctly[:(]
Now i use my last setup driver for Win98, Mikepedo 1.1
Respect "3dfx reference driver" i have a bit lost performance with HSR enable, but less artefacts! Some maps in Quake3 Arena are perfects!!!

getting back onto topic, so you can use a V5 (agp) for your main card, and then say useing a V3 (evil king PCI) to drive your second monitor? will you need to install 2 drivers or will the main driver for the V5 also work with the V3 pci one?

cheers
