This a V3 1000 16 mb inside.

The 5000 series Compaq I purchased had a 3500, would be easy enough to ask the seller if it has TV-out.

Has anyone a picture of a 3500 without pod? I have never seen such a card.

See this thread-

The top picture shows three Voodoo 3 cards, it's the one on the bottom with a Compaq bios decal.

And yes it has the correct speed ram.

They do show up on ebay once in a while, I purchased a whole computer to get this one.

Thanks for the information. But FalconFlys prototype has a dvi port.

...and mine is untested, or to be more exact, not guaranteed to be able to work stable or at all (was sold as not recommended for testing ), and I do honour these types of Warning ;)
