If you run out of ideas for your Youtube channel, maybe you can create a video comparing a Voodoo 2 and Voodoo 3 at 640x480 or 800x600.

About 15 years ago I sold my V2 and V3, but I recently purchased a V2 on ebay for my retro PC.

My motherboard doesn't support the AGP V3 and I can't find reasonably priced V3 PCI.

I'm not quite sure what you are after.

It is common-knowledge for the past 15+ years that the V3 (AGP or PCI) IQ is superior to V2 single or SLI. Any pass-thru system will be inferior to a single-card solution. GLIDE-Wrappers or DOSBox are probably better than the real thing at this time: V1 or V2.

If you have only one choice to make for your legacy system, you choose V3.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll stick with my V2 single.

I don't use pass-thru though, since my Dell U2412M has DVI, DisplayPort, and VGA input.
