Hi guys. I don't understand why you guys would use 3dfx cards in new motherboards /modern pcs.

I'm building an older pc so I can play windows 9x games and use 3dfx. I use a Serial ATA hard drive so I can't parition it and install windows 9x like I could before.

My current pc, main usage
Win XP Pro Sp2
3.0Ghz E P4 Prescott w/ Hyper Threading
D865PERL 800Mhz fsb mobo w/ ht support
1gig ram 2x 512 pc3200 in dual channel w/ aluminum heatsinks
70gig 2x 36gig 10k rpm sata in RAID 0
ATI 9800 Pro a-i-w omega 2.6.25a
420watt silverstone stf40 w/ PFC
Acer 17in AL1731 LCD monitor using DVI
BenQ1620 Pro & Nec 3520a awesome dvd burners

My older system:
Pentium 3 450Mhz slot 1
24x cd
P6bx-a+ mobo
Voodoo 3 3000 agp
384mb pc100 ram
230watt
Etronics 17'in LCD (vga cable only)
IBM Deskstar DJNA-371350 13.5igig harddrive
probably install Windows 98 upgrade

^^waiting for ECS p6bx-a+ mobo replacement anyday now. Bios upgrade flash went bad, I don't trust ECS's 40gig bios update anymore, reason for ordering another p6bx-a+ mobo and older IBM 13gig drive.

Kuze - For the Citizens part, they don't even recognize the massive explotation inherited in the system. They absorb only the information that appeals to them that's easy to accept. Theirs is a phony society, I want to open their eyes to that fact.

Because a V5 and V6K still scale well, in Doom3 the V6K is not the bottleneck on my machine but the CPU is.

Damn, if only there was a Clawhammer motherboard that worked with a V6K!

Hmm, time to develop a custom board with AGP2x ?

You could use the AGP2PCI Adapter in combination with an AMD Opteron 150 and some high-end board with 66MHz PCI slots ?
Only compatibility *might* be a problem.
And of course the money...

Do they make a high end board with 66 mhz PCI slots? That would work with the proper AGP2PCI adapter assuming the adapter doesn't default to 33 mhz operation and nothing else on the PCI bus doesn't rob to much bandwidth.

well there are Dual and Quad Opteron boards with 64Bit 66Mhz PCI slots Wink

imagine Quad Opteron 875  Tongue Tongue Tongue Tongue with an AGPToPCI adapter and a 6K in that, would be splendid, Clawhammer is rather slow, I have had a 3200+ Clawhammer and my friend had a 3700 Clawhammer, but those CPU's can't even compete with an OpteronDP 240 lol

and OpteronDP has 3 Hyper Transport links per node an A64 and 64FX have only 1 and the X2 has 1 per node a total of2.

Dual OpteronDP 244 which Ihave has a total of 2x 3 = 6 hypertransport links and the corese run at 1.8Ghz they easily beat an Athlon64FX 57 with CPU power, and mem bandwith is also Dual DDR per CPU also something which the claw hammer and other A64/A64FX /A64X@'s lack Smiley

So Dual OpteronDP /DC or MP still has the best advantage.

here the Tyan Thunder K8WE it supports Dual OpteronDP and Dual OpteronDC [Dual Core] 260, 265,270 & 275. & 16GB RC-3200 ECC Reg from White Lake Grin
...

and here a quad based Opteron board, The TYAN Thunder K8QS Pro with Dual & Quad OpteronMP/DC CPU support!

Too bad Games don't take advantage of Multi CPU systems (yet), this ~10000$ investment would turn out actually slower than your average 1000$ Box using a higher clocked Single CPU.

Fitting that with any Voodoo would literally redefine the term "bottleneck" (people would call it "voodooneck" thereafter Wink )
