Welcome mcmagostini!!!

Wow ! You're the first bloke I've seen in a 3dfx forum which has a 3dfx Voodoo5 5500 PCI Rev 3100 A1!!!! Never knew that the normal Voodoo5 5500 PCI's were built such in late revision! I hope you can send us some photo's, would be nice to see of course

[mcmagostini]

Oh well recieved another 3 Voodoos!

Powercolor EVilking II 3Dfx Voodoo2 12MB

3dfx Voodoo3 3000 AGP 16MB + TV-Out Rev 5199 C from week 51 of the year 1999 "C" = third revision of that type.

3dfx Voodoo4 4500 PCI 32MB Rev 3900 A Retail!! From week 39 of the year 2000 "A" = first revision of that type.  



This is my third Voodoo4 RetailBox, I have all three now. The Voodoo4 4500 AGP Retail, Voodoo4 4500 PCI Retail and VoodooMAC 4500 PCI Retail

Nice to have all Voodoo4 boxes and cards complete.
So it's a total of 29 Voodoo cards now.

Well yeah your right there, but I meant the 3dfx Original boxxes, but yeah it would be nice to find a Powercolor Voodoo4 4500 TV AGP too Those L-Cards, are they rare or are they very common?

[Nightbird]

My Powercolor 4500TV is absolutely normal (this is not the L-Card) with 2 outputs for Composite and S-Video except that the card is very narrow.
This is the version CV350-TV.
5 Versions of the PowerColor 4500 exist (in theory) :
3 with only the Vga Monitor Output (whose the L-card) and 2 with the Composite/SVideo outputs.
Since i never saw a L-Card boxed, i would think that's an Oem version but perhaps i'm wrong.

Very 1337 mate! And I was wondering what the Rev numbers of the PCI version were.. maybe you might know that too. BTW, who has those Voodoo5 5000 PCI's actually? Any suggestions, would be nice to know

hmm, Obi-wan, whoever's V5 that is, I hoped they fixed the fan connector before they hooked it up! But why do all the fans have sensor connectors, is there a way to monitor fan rpms on the v4/5?

Hmm maybe, but this is like every other V5 5000, an enginering sample, and maybe 3dfx did that to test the VSA-100's how hot they got with minimal cooling under high stress in 3D apps. It is just a theory of my own, never been in a 3dfx lab before, so I'm not really sure, just thinking out loud.

[amp_man]

I think that was accident, looks like it just got hit by something. I think they would have pulled the connector, and possibly enev the fan/hs off to test how hot it got...anyways, doesn't really matter.
