Of course he doesnt. Lightning of that caliber is not possible on V2 and textures look like they use >32MB, not the 4-8mb that V2 has. But hey, let the guy dream a little ;-)

He uploaded the video as a joke. But the scary part is that there are people who believe in such things.

Lets have fun with them, shall we? :D

My two cents:

"Dont forget to activate the special Mike's Photoshop Glide wrapper v2.71, it will literally blow you away with its rendering performance! Oh, for best results, remove all other video cards (to remove interference), and then use one voodoo as a frame buffer and the other as a T-Buffer replacement."

Whats yours?  ;D

right at the beginning, in the graphics settings, he chose "32bit" colors, which if i remember isn't possible in 3D graphics on a Voodoo2, i think this was only possible with the V5 cards.

It is possible to use 32-bit color with SLI configuration as far as I know

What? No way, V1, V2, Rush, Banshee and V3 - all support 16 bit only. Some render in 22/24 bit internally, but the output is always 16 bit.

V2 SLI can render in 1024x768, but the image quality is identical to single V2.

Only exception to that rule is ofcorse the quantum3d voodoo2 brick setup, where output might still be 16bit, but due to it's configuration it ran with fsaa,  "greatly" increasing image quality, or was that only with the later v3 and vsa-100 bricks setup??

Yes, but Q3D brick is a "different animal". And it's still 16 bit :)

We all do mistakes, that's why we're humans :)

Anyway, the image quality of V2 was great, 16 bit on V2 looked much better than 16 bit on Riva TNT (not to mention Riva 128 - that was very bad in image quality).
