I've had a setup with both cards. I had Radeon set up for my desktop 1920*1080@32bit and Voodoo for Warp3D games as, sadly, there's no Warp3D driver for Radeon. After a while I setup a second Mediator machine and now I have one miggy for desktop usage and the other for games (the Voodoo one). Btw, I don't have a Mediator TX, just plain old Mediator 1200 with a (simple) voltage hack found on aminet to allow it to work with Radeon cards. Poor Voodoo was way too slow with said resolution, while Radeon is quite comfortable.

I sent an email 2 days ago to Elbox asking if they are going to develop/are developing Warp3D drivers for Radeon cards. No answer yet though.

Slower. But good to use as RAM DISK.

 You need to create your own RAM disk mounter and specify the RAM address.


Probably the best way to use is with virtual memory which uses the Radeon's mem via a RAM disk... Faster than a hard drive plus very low latency! *SCNR*
