Very interesting configuration on the board, what exactly do those caps improve? More stable voltage delivery?

Yes it is a funky color, just wanted to take some quick pictures and needed a background. Yes the Daytona shown is the only one with 32mb in this configuration.

Is that a modded 16mb Daytona or a "factory born" 32mb card. How does the back side look like? More on the topic... from under the 'sink tale comes this:

Factory born, the only 32mb one with this PCB.

There is a bunch of 16mb boards that 3dfx sold to IBM for *unix servers or terminals but they don't play nice with most PC based hardware.

The 16mb board will work with just one motherboard I have here out of a dozen or so and it's an old 200mmx unit with TX chipset.

I'll keep an eye out for a backside pic, can't find it at the moment.

it's 1399 just like the v3 3000 agp with old logo that i have.

@Gary as always great collectibles find their way to you.
Interesting card the 32mb Daytona it's surprising since at that time 8-16mb Ati chips were usually chosen for servers and in the case of Unix machines for the GUI 32mb was too much but still...
