hi

can anyone pleas help me find PCI bracket for Voodoo 3 3000 AGP ? I googled , ebay or aliexpress but no luck.

I dont need the S-video output if I can find bracket that fits the VGA connector slot only.

Alternative - I dont have a 3d printer but if someone does can can print one for me, happy to pay for materials and time !

This is the card:

Here's an idea: What about getting one of those plain PCI slot brackets and make the necessary holes for the VGA connector? Then fasting the screws there will hold it in place.

You can 3D print one, there is a model on thingiverse but it doesn't have the port for tv-out. That shouldn't be a problem, the hole is round and you can drill it yourself with a drill bit for wood.
Just search for 3dfx on https://www.thingiverse.com. You'll find some 40 and 60mm fan mounts as well, maybe you can get one of those too.

There was someone on this forum making proper metal brackets for all sorts of cards. I’m sure there was a Voodoo 3 one. Unfortunately I can’t find their post.

Keystone make three available PC PCB Brackets (VGA / type 9).

9200-1: The distance from top 90deg angle to centre VGA connector is 49.8mm (+/-1mm?)
9200-2: The distance from top 90deg angle to centre VGA connector is 55.8mm (+/-1mm?)
9200-16: The distance from top 90deg angle to centre VGA connector is 27.2mm (+/-1mm?)

Connects only by the VGA stand off screws, not to PCB, but you need to be lucky on the fitment. Otherwise they make blanks as well, but connect to the PCB.
