Generating 6 million triangles per second to bring to life 500 of the hottest titles, the Voodoo3 2000?s Patented Single pass, Single Cycle, Multi-Texturing delivers the brilliant color and amazing clarity that has made it the standard in PC entertainment.
Amazon.com Review: This ultraslick Voodoo3 2000 card will have you battling it out in a multiplayer Quake II game or tearing around the dusty landscape of Tatooine in Star Wars Racer with the most thrilling 3-D effects on the planet. Whatever your gaming addiction is, the Voodoo3 2000 will elevate the experience to the ultimate in 3-D graphics and speed.
The Voodoo3 2000's notable feature set includes 3dfx's patented single pass, single cycle multi-texturing, dual 32-bit texture-rendering pipeline, alpha blending, single pass, single cycle bump mapping, gouraud shading, DVD hardware assist, and a 128-bit 2-D accelerator. With a core clock rate of 143 MHz and 300 MHz RAMDAC, this card offers impressive 3D performance.
Installing the Voodoo3 2000 was a snap as the manual walks you step by step through the process. We tested the Voodoo3 2000 on a 333-MHz Celeron system with DirectX 6.1 at resolutions of 640 x 480 and 800 x 600. (Our 14-inch monitor couldn't handle much more). The card managed an impressive 47.3 frames per second at 800 x 600 in our Quake II time demo, and 51.4 frames per second at 640 x 480--very near 3dfx's claim of 60 frames per second.
We would love to see 3dfx support 32-bit color at some point in the future, especially since Quake III will support true-color textures. Additionally, 3dfx's Voodoo cards only support a 256 x 256 texture size, which will result in a decrease in image quality once game manufacturers begin supporting 2,048 x 2,048 texture sizes. However, 3dfx's advantage at this point lies in its proprietary Glide API (application program interface) and clout within the 3-D graphics-card arena. These factors are enough to make the Voodoo3 2000 card a number one choice for those seeking the most intense gaming experience around.
Pros: - Easy to install
- Impressive frame rates
- Extensive game support
- Glide API support
- Superb graphics quality
Cons: - No 32-bit output
- Maximum memory of 16 MB
- Limited by 256 x 256 texture size

I purchased this card for My Compaq computer back in 1998, and it still is going. Out of date for XP, it still works on my computer using 95b, and would work on 98SE as well. Great smooth graohics, it really spead up the processing time of that old computer when I put it in, releiving the drain on RAM memory. Great ... Read More

I bought this for my old compac 200mhz pentium processor when it was "state of the art" back in 1997 or so (running windows 1995). 16mb cards were the best you could do at the time. This thing blew the competition out of the water at the time, and is still by far the best graphics card I have seen for computers the ... Read More

I've had the Voodoo3 2000 on my pc for the past 2 years and still can't seem to have the need to change it to something else. I'm a heavy on-line gamer and am very happy with this video card. Just have to work the jagged edges on some games though. Other than that, I have no regrets owning one.

Like many others writing reviews for this card, I too had an integrated AGP on the motherboard. Installing this card was not much of a problem. Make sure after your first round of installation, you download the latest drivers from the 3dfx site. The card provides excellent enhancements for most games which I play- currently ... Read More
