Hi!

Is anybody out there using the non-TV version of the 3DFX Voodoo 3 3500? If so, what drivers are you using? What sort of luck have you had with these cards? What is your experience with these? How much of a boost are they over the V3000? Are they worth the effort?

I checked on Falconfly.de and the driver options for the 3500 are much more limited than the 3000.

For some examples, there's a couple of folks on eBay selling some:

Thanks!

The specs are the same as a V3 2000 and 3000 but clocked at 183MHz. It's a 3500 without the tv-tuner and the pod-cable.

Like it says on Falconfly, the regular V3 drivers work fine with the 3500 TV and are in fact recommended on that site. This card is probably just identical save for the outputs and TV feature, so no reason to believe that it wouldn't work.

The 3500 is ~8% faster at best, most of the times less than that.
