Does the Nvidia Riva TNT2 64 draw as much or more power as the Voodoo 3 in terms of volts and wattage for AGP 2.0 (3.3v)?

About as much as Voodoo3 2000.

In terms of performance the V3 is a lot faster.

Quake 3:
1024x768, Lightmap, High, Trilinear, 16bit
V3: 38.1fps, M64: 27.5fps

1280x1024, Lightmap, High, Trilinear, 16bit
V3: 23.0fps, M64: 14.8fps

M64 is really too slow to do 32bit colour.

V3 2000 is similar to TNT2 Ultra speed.

Im not sure if this matters but the graphics chip has on it Nvidia Riva TNT2 64 there is no "M" in 64 does this mean a different type of card?

No, it was always written without the M, IIRC.
