    One Voodoo2 card was great, 2 of them and you had a beast of a setup. Then comes the Voodoo3 matching the Voodoo2 SLI setup in performance. This video demonstrates just how powerful the Voodoo3 card was when it was released. And all this time i thought there was no way it would be close to performing like a Voodoo 2 SLI setup. Thanks for the video. I enjoy these videos more than the shit everyone else releases with the latest hardware/games.

      Yeah back in 1998 i was still using my Amiga 1200 for my main rig until i got my first PC over 2 years later. There was no way i could afford any voodoo2 cards back then, but thanks to me buying a lot of parts in more recent times before the prices increased, i now have a Pentium 2 system with Voodoo 2's in SLI and i have a all the parts to complete my Pentium 3 build with a Voodoo 3 but life and other hobbies always keep me from completing this computer.

    I used a PCI Banshee to play Unreal back in the day. It got the job done. Voodoo 3 was basically Banshee on steroids.

    @patrickct9386 3 роки тому +3

    Voodoo3 was a great first gaming card. Games were smooth, fast and beautiful. It was widely acknowledged and having almost no game compatibility issues and I never experienced any myself. Everything worked! And V2sli + 2D in one card, with passive cooling only, a dynamite package. Surprised the banshee did so well, considering that a V2sli has 4 tmus against the banshees one. Then again, I suppose that not every single surface, object and actor required multipass textures.

    The lightmaps looked a little nicer on the SLI, the Banshee seemed to be the sharpest, and the v3 was somewhat faster. My v2 sli system right now is centered around a Dell XPS Pentium 2 450 on BX chipset. Primary card is swapped between a Riva 128 and Gforce 3.

    I just see the first secconds and soon have to "like" it for the music:-) Thank you for your work, great video. I think the V3 is the best deal. V2 SLI more expensive and only suitable for retro enthusiasts that can afford it. The Banchee is a good choice if you can get it for good money. Its speed is fine for glide gaming if you're allright with resolutions below 1024x768. Back then, we were totally happy with 30 FPS, weren't we?

      I think you mean the black lines/glitches? This is normal with Voodoo 2 in SLI mode (only visible in SLI mode!) and disabled Vsync. It goes away with enabled Vsync. I don't have problems with this lines and always play with Vsync off on Voodoo 2 in SLI.

Contrary to what some people complain about Voodoo 2 being too bright, in my case it produced a quite dim image, which I would rather wasn´t the case. Maybe it was related to the passthrough implementation.

    Pretty sure original unreal supports timedemo.. during the flyby demo just bring down the console and type 'timedemo' for a benchmark, or time 'stat fps' during game to get average fps

    • @3DfxAslinger
      @3DfxAslinger  4 роки тому +1

      Yes, but only the flyby scene (already made a video of this) scene. But if you want to self record a scene what you want, you have to choose Unreal Tournament. Here you can record a map what you want and can use it for benchmarks or comparings.

The Voodoo 3 should have the best image quality, Voodoo 2 is also nice, but you can see the SLI black lines, when Vsync is off.

    The voodoo 2 looked the best to me, but you could see a bit of that SLI choppiness. The voodoo 3 was about the same, but the colors seemed a bit less deep and I kept noticing weird animation glitches on that card that weren't coming through on the other two. Not sure if that was from the gfx card or from software weirdness. The banshee was just hanging on, but TBH back in the day I would have still played on it.
