« on: June 26, 2003, 07:57:42 AM »
Yeah im getting a mediator soon and was wondering if the voodoo 3/2000 is any good?
Just i can get one pretty cheap and was wondering is it a good card just as a 1st gfx card?
Thanks

hi! i have mediator and voodoo3 2000
and it works ok!
only problem is, it is SO slow if compare in voodoo5500....  and even voodoo3300 is much faster.
and one little thing...i have infinity tower and my voodoo burn out..too much heat!!!  :-(
 becouse voodoo3 2000 have much smaller heat sink
than voodoo3300.
but card works really  good, before it burns!   :-D
(now i have to buy voodoo5500)  :-P

You can pick up 16MB voodoo3 3000's with TV-OUT for about £15 on ebay.
Voodoo 3 are an excellent card. I've currently got one in my mediator (PCI) and an AGP version in my A1

Just do a search on the US ebay for voodoo PCI. I got lots of results today. I use a 3000 with no problems on my A3000 mediato system.
