He said this to me too, in private, but without to know that I'm using my card at least one time in a week Smiley He didn't know us and I think that it's better for him to stop this sad little theatre.

Everyone buy cards and does nothing with it.


That's because it's a *collector* item, not a normal card. I understand if someone mods/overclocks a GTX590 to get high framerates in games, but V5 6000?

Imagine someone buying a Ford card made in 1910 (an example), then he would start tuning the car: improving the engine, adding new tires and lights, etc.

That's *exactly* what you do with the V5 6000. And you are surprised that people don't like this and consider it a bad thing.

And you're right, it's your card, you can do whatever you like with her. But it doesn't mean that you're doing a good thing.

P.s.
He had ten Voodoo 5 6000 for who doesn't know.
He had accepted very high prices and now we can't be surprised if they are grown up and if we can't find other 6000. He want more!

Ok, later reading all the posts.

Here another very bad person jointly with trevormacro:

...

Funny to see how people act according who write the topic.

If this mod is done by Hank Semenec. Everybody would be excited.
If this mod is done by Michel. Everybody act like if he is a V5-6000 assassin.

I remember years ago when Hank modded one V5-6000 card, he changed tsop memory, used big heatsink for memory and vsa and all the people wrote with respect.

I understand you can like or not modding such cards but I think the respect is the most important thing.

I still did not see where the damage is done at the card.


The problems is resolder new TSOP ram or the big black heatsink? Smiley

Or perhaps the problems is that Trevormacro can buy all V5-6000 s cards he wants?

Agree now is impossible to buy V5-6000s cards because Michel burst the market.

Agree he can try once, 2, 3, 4, 5.... 20 times asking you if are you interested to sell your V5-6000 card.

But later of all those I have seen that everybody have a price and if offer is good people will sell his cards.

- Oscar.

It is amazing how insistently he presumes he does something _FOR_ this community.
It is amazing too, how arrant he ignores and skips the opinion of all other, given their comments to it.

He only use this and other forums for his self-expressions and don't recognice, that no one is interrested in.
By the way, all this has nothing got to do with the knowledge about techical experiences for changing some SMD parts. For an technician no special thing. But to understand this - more and other attributes are required than lots of Euros and the knowledge about on which side the soldering iron gets warm.

I feel very bad about this wonderful cards, and what is happening to them.

Shall he do with his cards what he want, but he can't expect, hat someone of the community has any understanding for it.

Not me. And I'm sad to see that the other 3Dfx lovers can't have their opportunity to have a 6K anymore. He is killing a dream.

Agree again now is very difficult to buy a V5-6000 card but so is the market law but is not fair to say he is killing dreams.

Varus purchased a V5-6000s card.

It's my opinion: the 6Ks are the 3Dfx fan's dream and now there isn't anymore due to prices and availability. So he's killing a dream.

I think that the overclock that you've done is simple, that the ram replacement is an old project that I wish I hadn't seen in a 6000 and that to use an adaptor is quite dull.
3Dfx was made for gaming and the most important factor in the background is the nostalgia. But you can't understand.

Ah, of course, I don't like the heatsink mod because I think that the airflow isn't optimized.

Very nice.
Self-Adulation.  Sad

We'll see if the community has some advanteges of it. When he is a so great technician or engineer, a very big thing would be repairing died cards. Than he deserves the respect he is begging for. Than he helps the _community_.

All other is baublery and gambling.

I will reply to your private message here, since you opened a dedicated thread:

trevormacro wrote on 13.11.11 at 17:10:12:
Hello,

What do you think ? of this project


What I should think?! I think the same things that the fellows above already said.

Adding 1KG heatsink on a very long card making it very dangerous  to use in a vertical case ... ya, it's definitely a good idea, congratz. As if that wasn't enough, it's an awful solution. Oh....and keeping those small fans on that huge heatsink, simply make me laugh. This is what I think, are you satisfied?

You are still continuing contact me and others asking what we think about your *coooool* ideas.

Is it really so important for you to know what (virtual) people think about you?

You are continuing to expose yourself to public opinion, expecting, I dunno, glory? But if people don't like what you do and express their negative opinions, you simply delete their messages, as you did on youtube with your videos, isn't it?

This is a kid's behaviour.

Since the death of the 3dfx company (11 years), nobody has succeeded to relive Voodoo5 6000 cards....


*Yaawnn...*

Bla bla bla, copy and paste this bullshit here and there as you want.

What are you doing for 3dfx with your Voodoo5 6000 3700A?


ps47 is the keeper of a very old 3dfx support page. I think that this is something can be defined as "for the 3dfx community".

Hi Oscar,

Yes, if Hank Semenec puts his hand on the card, this can be accepted. Why? Because I hate you, so I want to be against every word you say? No. Because the Hank's hand is the 3dfx's hand, simple and plain. You forgot that the PCI rework IS a mod, afterall, but it is done by the man that has created that hardware.

I noticed you re-mod the card that Hank mod at the time. Congratz dude, you ruined another history's piece of post 3dfx era. That card was given to Amigamerlin from Hank Semenec, completely modded by Hank Semenec. Now that card is a card modded by a nobody.

All those like you don't deserve to own such piece of history. Property is property, right, and owners can do what they want, but this doesn't mean they will do the right thing. To be owner of such card imply a great responsibility.

You fill your mouth of words about respect and so on, but the first to be disrespectful was your break buddy.

You are completely wrong, he can't. Because if I told him to stop to bother me and others with emails and spam, about selling the card or whatever, and he continues, then you cannot teach to me what is respect.

This is offensive. Not all people are wheeler dealer like you.

If it's quite dull to find a very good adaptor, try to find an adapter that turns a Voodoo5 faster than the Supermicro adaptor ?

Yes: the system will be unbalanced and it didn't help to play recent games or play better the games that already runs on a common 3Dfx system. Is it just benching? I hate benching.
