Has anyone seen 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 Watercooling Legend Edition

It sure and it approximately looks similar to a pure labour of to feel affection for, for the 3dfx. No mistaking the craftmanship there, additional than it is an overkill I imagine. I might prefer to do it on a, say ATI X850XTX or ATI 1950XTX or the FX series of nVidia cards the stock coolers are quite raucous. And in addition perhaps building something similar to that to facilitate for a 4870X2. I need some information in sequence on this 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 Watercooling. Has anyone seen 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 Watercooling Legend Edition.

What astonish me moreso than this cool mod is what most of the users determine to do for something that to facilitate is rare. Here most of them have comprised a GPU that to facilitate an acquire a spanked by the GeForce 3, does not have hardware T&L, and might sell for regarding $10 shipped pedestal purely on performance on a good day, and most of the users are going crazy in excess of it making a custom WB. I mean kudos for being the initial quad GPU and the merely quad GPU on a single PCB, additional than the IDK, is not this a bit much. I had acquired into the system hardware sometime around 2004 so I do not have the nostalgia, perhaps that's why.

By the way, that card had not anything going for it, which is why it by no means went to market and 3dfx closed shop a small number of months later. The car battery giving the impression of being power adaptor was particularly freakish and not the norm in 2000. I had considered that the card was in addition set to be around $600, which was in addition not the norm in 99-2000. Do remember this card be able to merely do 16-bit color. This card is what in conclusion killed 3dfx as a company. Well, fraction of it anyway. The 3dfx was an extremely poorly managed company. Even so, I determine to tranquil always remember and I still have it.

This is absolutely frigid overwhelming! It creates me approximately miss my Voodoo2 and Pentium 200. Absolutely creates me miss my previous voodoo2 12mb and k6-3d 300. Lots of fun was had playing Quake2 mods on that to facilitate the system. I tranquil anticipate that someday, the software determines to come out that to facilitate and it will appropriately emulate an old win95/98 machine through a glide-enabled GPU. I have comprised no idea what kind of hardware you determine to be required to do this appropriately. I remember reading they needed a 3GHz cpu to properly emulate a SNES.

Essentially this Voodoo4/5 might do 32 bit. I feel affection for this 3dfx back in the day. I had more than a few voodoo cards containing a Voodoo5 5500. They had by far the most excellent anti-aliasing back then, unmatched IMHO in anticipation of ati 9700 pro. I had remember the preceding 3DFX cards. I had a Vodo3 2000 I imagine it is here somewhere. Anyway pleasant apparatus work and great water block.
