Nice catch Gary!!!! one of those cards has no VGA's heh reminds me what Diamond had with the Mega Monster 3D II sets heh, nice find man

@ razrx

Now that looks like a real one, do you have a shot of the rear side as well?
Awesome job none the less  

Well here's something I had since my first collection, it's in my Dual Pentium!!!/EB 1000 as secondary VGA

3dfx Voodoo5 5500 PCI 64MB Rev.A1 2900.

Beautifull.

Time for a European version of that box?

hmm a Mac version is an idea only it would have to be a PCI 2.1 card or an AGP x4 card, since with the V5 age Macs had AGP x4 slots as PCI 2.1 slots, an AGP x2 card was never used afaik.

since the 5500 AGP for Mac prototype has an AGP x4 connector as well:


the pic is from 3dfx.ch

Yes really


Since direct linking from Gary's site isn't aloud , I came accross it in his 3dfx.ch gallery page

Me a devil, I'd think not my friend... If you looked further than your eyes could see:

it was in his gallery of 3dfx.ch, all the pics on that website are free for use, so for that behalf, I am no "devil"

Shame your pics are of bad quality, did you take them with a webcam?
If you have a good digicam, I'd say make some real pics make them shine  

This is what people see when they walk past my front door of my appartment:




It's a 14,8" 3dfx Logo, It was made @ ShadowMajik.com a place where you can let them make custom Vinyl decals

hehe norries there, here a cool pair of 3500 TV AGP's

I got it from exact this seller
http://cgi.ebay.nl/STB-3DFX-VOODOO-AGP-16M-3500PAL-WITH-CD-MANUEL-WHITEBOX_W0QQi...

It's a 3dfx Voodoo3 3500TVSI AGP 16MB it has 16MB 16ns SDRAM from Hyundai and it runs core/mem 166Mhzinstead of 183Mhz the normal one runs, the speed specs the seller stated are false, there is no 3500 that runs 184Mhz stock , only 183Mhz or 166Mhz as this one does

the SI as this one here comes with that cool as handy IO DVI to D-Sub converter which also works on the normal 3500 TV AGP's

Here some more pics of the card with that converter unattached:



Tis is how I recieved the card, the Manual looked as if some fluid came in contact with it, the card does function so I guess these nauals were added manually by hand.

Well infact it's no normal DVI to D-Sub converter it's bigger
ever compared the IO/DVI-I of the 3500 TV to that of a 4500 PCI Mac or 5500PCI Mac?

The ones on the V3's are about 25% larger as width of the connector goes, this is because it was designed to transfer images as sound for the IO Pod

Thus the converter needed to had to fit is and bigger than a normal DVI-I to VGA convertoer, it's an IO DVI-I interface actually, so if you want to use your 3500 TV AGP without the pod you would need the 3500 TVSI AGP I showed you, because the strange thing is that that IO DVI-I to D-Sub connector can't be found sepperate.

It's a chinese aftermarket design for their 3500TV SI AGP's to lessen the costs for the card.
