Finding a Voodoo 3, 4 or 5 in PCI is very difficult now a days, at least on ebay too. They go for a lot because of the vintage game collectors are building classic PC systems with them. The market is a lot like the Amiga Market when they pop up and I see them go for over $200 most of the time, its stupid.
I would grab this one fast if I were you. Its 100% mediator compatible and warp3d as well.

I run this in mine as well as a Radeon, the 5500 in a mediator only uses one CPU, but all the RAM. You wll get like 32+ MB for the system If I remember right even.

I would get that one for $75 while you can. You can see the 5500 has gone from $10 to over $120 since I linked them. You dont see them last long these days here in the US. Not sure about Europe.
