I thought that the 3dfx 'brazos' originated from the STB T-100MMR motherboard. That board would've had an nVidia Riva TNT chip. Like other boards (3dfx Voodoo3 2000 for example) 3dfx took the existing STB design (with Riva TNT chip) and installed an 3dfx chip on it.

A picture of the STB T-100MMR board:

Compare the boards; they have some things in comment :).

MMR stands for 'MultiMedia Riser'. As you might figured out already the brown slot on the left of the AGP slot is the MMR connector. The connector would be used for multimedia purposes.
