Pa-2013 does not have the right regulator for the v3 3000, v3 2000 is the absolute max (read it somewhere years ago). Geforce 2mx would be very safe and i would use that with v2 (sli)

It was used in medion computers, they always had cards with slightly different specs (clockspeeds, type of ram etc.) and names. Like with the Radeon 9800xl etc.

Try the 2 lowest pci slots for sli or the lowest for single card. Worked wonders in my k6-3 when getting black screens in dos etc.

Hahaha...... It's the only one I don't have that I really want... Do have the g2 but not a single mvp3 board with 2mb cache!

Look at a high res picture online. That way you can determine which caps are the same size/color. Desolder those and measure. Good luck!

I have the same Epox board (and 3 others ss7 from Epox with Via chipset, also have a DFI board, Aopen and a chaintech....maybe more). I would have liked to give it a go but I just don`t have the time or patience right now! My only running ss7 system is based on my favorite P5A, the rest is stored …

Your problem is on the backside: c151 , c51,c53, c61 are knocked off.... as far as I know the pads should all be populated (not at home and no voodoo at hand now...) It`s fairly common that these get damaged/knocked off by other cards when kept in a bin/box. Had a couple from a recycler that had the …

Okay guys, I finally found a v2 with 12x 1mb (v2 1000). It came from a scrapper and had some terminal damage on the chips (legs) and both vga ports were broken off. Ram chips seemed fine so I had a perfect donor for the mod! Used a heatgun to simply take all the ramchips off both cards and because …

It's extremely rare, and quite historic as a very famous misstep from nvidia, that they later corrected. What is extremely rare? How many were manufactured? I can think of many things that are old and rare, but not worth much. The fact that you can find 2 on ebay in a 5 second search, at a random …

But I'm pretty sure I'll trade all of them for a XGI Volari Duo. I woudn't. While it certainly has interesting monetary value, it's practically useless for anything. Horrible chip with horrible drivers. But I do remember the hype buildup until release and the flock of zealots hailing it as the …

The jumperfree block sits just above the control panel at the right side. It is marked with [JEN] and there is a blue jumper installed on pin 1 and 2. Move the jumper to pin 2 and 3 for jumperfree mode and adjust the dipswitches in the blue block as indicated bij Meljor. Yup... missed the JEN …

Try contacing Osckhar, he repairs these cards and also does mods to double the memory, replace complete chipsets even on voodoo 6000 etc. etc. He has a good reputation. https://picclick.fr/seller/osckhar Don't know if the link works. Just google his name with 3dfx added and you will find him …

No you can't convert the DOS version over since it involves pre-converted textures and a different audio track order. You'll have to hunt for the Stealth3D 2000 Descent2/Destruction Derby combo disc. Thank you. That's a real shame... iT'S ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES. Do you have a picture of the …

I have the normal dos version (original cdrom). Can I make it work with s3 acceleration using those .exe file(s)? Or does anyone know where to get a S3 verion cd (or image)?

There is one more option to get 8MB Voodoo Graphics - Skywell Magic 3D Plus https://twitter.com/3Dfx_Aslinger/status/1138107200134701056/photo/1 I have one of these and by default it comes with 4MB only (half of the positions are empty). So it should be possible to just solder the rest and done. …
