Interesting watercooled rig.
You can find better suited waterblocks for the V5 5500 that takes less space to improve the looks and use of see one example here:

As I've come to find out the watercooling for 3dfx is more a quirk then useful for overclocking the V5. You will still be limited by the VSA100 and memory capability and a good air cooling will suffice.
In any case for overvolt you can take a look here:

Have fun retro-gaming with it,

I have already translated that guide for people which don't understand italian language. It should be a thread at 3dfxzone.it with my translation for another user.

If I find it I will post the link here.

BTW, if you need help with italian language and Voodoo5 overvolt, I am at your disposal ;)
