Hi,

What a big post, it must have taken you some time to write it. Well to be honest I was'nt there from the beginning. I got interested in 3dfx when voodoo2 was released and I bought my first one when voodoo3 was released(v3 2000). The company certainly deserves to be remembered as the pioneer in 3D graphics. Its now 4 years since the company is no more. But like they said :

Citazionethe 3dfx legacy will live on....

And they are right. Look at us now....4 years later and the voodoo feelings are still there. The company will never completely die. There is nothing to be sad about in my opinion. At least now 3dfx left us as the king of 3D graphics. And...but this is only a personal thing, they gave us the mighty voodoo 5 6000. I remember very well when I first read about it. I can almost dream the sentences :

CitazioneAnd last but not least, the voodoo 5 6000. With its massive 128 MB and no less than 4 VSA100's in sli this is definatley the wet dream for hardcore gamers.....

yep.. those where the good old days.      
I never had money for it and when it was cancelled I was very dissapointed. However because of people like Hank and Amigamerlin (there are more of course) we can continue to use our cards, and I even got my v5 6000.

So, 15/12/2000 is certainly a day to remeber, but nothing to be sad about

Ah thank you for the info. This intel revision looks very different from the ones I know. I noticed already when I looked at them earlier. It is definitly not the 1500 but Cosworth6K sais its revision is "unknown" if I remember correct. I suppose you dont know either he?

Hi Amigamerlin
Long time no see. Thanks for the explanation.
In the email I basically asked the same but could you also make a picture of the intel card for me if you're going to make one from the 3700 with 5.4 ns memory.
I would like to see it very much. Thank you all.

I've just send email to amigamerlin (Amiga if you read this I sent the mail to your msn adress, bit unusual for me but I was already typing a buch of messeges over there )

Thanks for clearing up Superbox. You italians have a reputation you should now. I've been turned into your direction more than once.

@NT2000 : Just a little longer....

Superbox,

I can read a bit of italian and with the help of some translation I can make something of what you posted. Isnt Sirta the guy that has the working Rampage? (yes I do my homework  )Is he possibly the owner of an intel revision? The last line is unclear : NT2000 has a basement full of 6K with intel? I suppose that was meant to be a joke. Ive been talking to NT2000 and he claims to have no intel card nor sources for them. Ill contact Amigamerlin again, im sure he will clear it up.

Hmm Hank has indeed more 6K's left but only revision 3700. Some time ago I asked Hank if he had more cards that were based on the intel chip. The answer I got from him is that he had "given" them to Amigamerlin a long time ago(all of them). I dont know how much but it where several according to him. So I go to Amigamerlin and ask if he has intel card that I can buy but he has only one left. several-1 equals more intel cards so thats why I asked   But if you dont know I will ask Amigamerlin himself.

Cosworth6K is not willing to sell it (who would if its working)Anybody else nows a place to look or a person to contackt? Hank doesnt have them anymore :(He said they all went here...Anybody tired of his non-working intel card(from Hank) and willing to sell it to me. I will pay enough, ask Amigamerlin

Hi guys,

Im sorry for posting english in here. I can read the Italian a bit but dont write it. I hope you dont mind.
I'm looking for the voodoo 5 6000 rev 1500.



This card is hard to find, I know. And ive been asking alot of people an been on lots of forums but none of them seems to be able to find one. The card doesnt have to be a working sample at all. Ive been directed several times back to you guys so finally I come back here and ask you.I know you have got some really rare stuff here so I hope one of you is able to help me out.
