in the bios source code i found the following string:

3dfx Voodoo5 5000 PCI SG-RAM noTV - noLCD 0x0003

im comparism to other prototypes...from the never released 4800 i found these strings:

3dfx Voodoo4 4800 AGP SD-RAM noTV - noLCD 0x0004
3dfx Voodoo4 4800 AGP SD-RAM noTV - LCD 0x0004
3dfx Voodoo4 4800 AGP SD-RAM TV - noLCD 0x0004
3dfx Voodoo4 4800 AGP SD-RAM TV - LCD 0x0004

maybe the quantity shows some hints ;)
