This pretty much shows that the argument that it doesn't matter if you use a Voodoo Graphics card or a Voodoo2 in a Pentium machine is wrong.

The two Quake games really like the Voodoo 2.

How much memory does each card have?

Aren't Forsaken, Quake 2 and Unreal multitextured? That explains the performance difference between the V1 and V2.

The Monster 3D has 4MB and the Monster 3D II 12MB.

What about the scores for Incoming? They also appear to be locked together for both cards all the way up the CPU ladder.

Indeed!

An interesting tidbit about Voodoo1 is it has only partial triangle setup hardware. Voodoo2 has full triangle setup (though Glide needs to be v2.5+). This means slightly lower CPU usage. I imagine Voodoo2 is improved in other ways as well that reduce misc bottlenecks.

Phil wonder what the FPS would be with a Miro Hiscore 6MB V1, i have one but not gotten around to testing it as took a while to source DIN to VGA cable, but from other benchmarks on the net it gets quite close to Voodoo 2 scores with that extra 2MB texture ram

Doh..
