So, I bought the 3DFX Voodoo 3 3000 agp, and it's a great gpu 😁, I installed the cd drivers (that I get from vogons) and I got 31.5fps on quake 2 and 1067score at 3Dmark99, but then I tested the amigamerlin 2.9 and boom, 37.1fps at quake2 demo1 and 1126 score, but I changed something (and I think it's something related to the usb bluetooth or the pci wifi board that I installed), and I can't remember, now I can only get 33,7fps on quake 2 and 1013 score at 3Dmark '-'

I tried downclocking to 140Mhz and 177Mhz and I got almost the same result in quake 2 (33.7 on both), also I reinstalled the drivers and I got the same score 😮...

what did I do to get that "perfect" performance?

Also here's the rest of the hardware:
-Intel Pentium MMX233MHz
-1mb l2 cache
-128mb sdram
-80gb ide maxtor hd
-ms-5189 motherboard
-Guillemot maxi sound game theater

Here's some bench from quake2 before and after that performance change
Quake 2:
-Before:
--Demo1:
---Sound:37.1fps
---NoSound:40.4fps
--Demo2:
---Sound:34.9fps
---NoSound:38.0fps
-After:
--Demo1:
---Sound:33.7fps
---NoSound:37.0fps
--Demo2:
---Sound:31.5fps
---NoSound:34.6fps
