I have been using a Voodoo4 and it's been working identical to the Voodoo3 right down to the Mediator driver bugs ;). My tests show it to be nearly the same speed as the Voodoo3. The advantage is twice the gfx memory, a little sharper image quality, and a few more display modes. I'm going to try and get the large texture support for Voodoo4+ (greater than 256x256) going in Warp3D as well as more bug fixes and speed-ups.

@KThunder
The VSA-100 (Voodoo 4 and 5) didn't have t&l. It was full featured besides that for the time. You may be correct about the bus being optimized for AGP instead of PCI like the Voodoo 3. The memory speed was also faster in many cases on the Voodoo 3. My Voodoo 3 overclocks a lot more than my Voodoo 4.
