3dfx Voodoo3 AGP

This card is well outof fdate now - everyone knows it. Therefore there is no need to get into the debate about how there are other more powerfull cards etc... However, when the performance of the card (and its other 3dfx brothers) is lower that that of the original TNT (let it be slightly overclocked) which is 1 year older, you cant give it a high rating. More importantly, with the price/performance ration it also looses out to virtually any card out there. I know a lot of people have rushed out and bought this card as a result of the excellnt performance of the Voodoo2 series, and therefore are not going to bad mouth it. However any benchmarking professional ...  Read the complete review

What a card! Although it isnt packed with loads of those new fancy pancy features you find in some of the other modern graphics cards, it makes up for this short fall with its sheer speed. I managed to clock it at 80fps on unreal tournament when nothing else was running. Its blistering performance is coupled with the TV out which i have yet to try because for somereason i cannot locate the TV out cabling which was not supplied with the card. Its relativly inexpensive compared to most and the price and this is due to fall soon as the new Voodoo5's and 6's come out over the next 2 years. A good all round card which lacks some new features but makes up for it ...  Read the complete review

3DFX have released a great card in the Voodoo 3 3000, and although it is now slightly ageing, it still offers wonderful visuals and great performance for the price at which it currently sells. Now superseded by the 5500 and soon the 6000, the 3000 comes with three full games, and another great point about this card is the support – many games are 3dfx enhanced taking advantage of the features and functions this cards offers. Quite simply, this card offers unequal compatibility and a great support in the form of 3dfx who are one of the first to endorse new technology and release new drivers to the public. Other advantages of the card are the ability to ...  Read the complete review

I love this card! I've been in and around computers since 1992. It was my Dad's fault really, he used to own a small independant computer business and I used to get lumped on him during the holidays as my Mum didn't want to take me to work with her. Anyway, Dad had to find something to do with me and eventually he decided to stick me in front of broken machines and see if I could fix them (with his help of course!). I then progressed from fixing them to building them and upgrading them and my latest upgrade for my (ageing) home machine has been a Voodoo 3. Now my home machine is just a lowly K62-250Mhz with 32Mb Ram on a small AT ...  Read the complete review

This is basically a very good graphics card. It plays games at a very high frame rate giving outstanding performance using glide drivers. Most games are specifically written with the voodoo 3 in mind so there are no problems with drivers. The only problem is that it is over priced. It only has 16mb of ram, it does not have 32 bit support or a 32 bit z buffer. It does not play dvd at all well and the tv out is pathetic. I sold this card and bought a ati rage fury 32mb video capture and dvd decoder included, and am having a much better all round experience. it has much better 32 bit support and plats quake 3 much faster and with better quality than the voodoo, I also use ...  Read the complete review
