Tomorrow 5 years ago 3dfx was bought by NVIDIA :'( ... but we are here to pay tribute to 3dfx...
Here is my little Mod.
What we need: Voodoo4 4500 AGP, Voodoo3 3000 TV AGP (damaged), DVI-Add-On-Karte (HP), hot air blower (is that the right translation?)
Here is my Voodoo4 4500 AGP:
On this picture you see a functional Voodoo3 3000. I do not use this one. I bought a damaged one.
Here I took the TV-Out + chip from the PCB.
And here is one little rarity. In this original packed box you can find a DVI-D-Addon-card. I could not use another connector coz original 3dfx prototypes had DVI-D-connector. too.
And here it is - inclusive Silicon Image DVI-Chip.
Here you can see the DVI-D-connector.
The stripped one ;) I disconnected the soldering point of DVI-connector and chip with the hot air blower.
Finnaly here you can see the Voodoo4 48...ähh 4500 ;)
On this picture you can see that I only connected the chips. No SMD-stuff! Therefore I do not own the equipment.
Original and modded one - with the new front panel.
This was my mod for the 5th anniversary...I hope you like the result ;)
