That's probably the best description & Images of the used Boards in those VSA-100 Clusters.

As they were used mainly for Military and other big Visual Simulators, those Boards never were available "Retail" (like normal Video Cards in a store).

The only (still very expensive) 3dfx based Retail products sold by Quantum3D were the Quantum3D Obsidian (Voodoo1), Ventana 50 (Rush), Obsidian2 (Voodoo2) and Raven (Banshee) series.

Actually the Vantana boards were never retail, a minor nit-pick though.
