Voodoo 5 5500

I got it. seems ok. Not bad for a 2 year old card [Blocked image]

Whats the best tweaks and setup and what not? got wicked gl.. but i get sick of pressing c to play cs :

The glide wrapper that cs installs is pretty shit (and old) there are newer ones here. Get 1.49, i run that and haven't had a problem with it [Blocked image]

(edit) : Get this also, lets you control all the tools better and eiser than the tools that get installed with the drivers. More options in this too [Blocked image]

Don’t bother overclocking it as the default is 166 and I overclocked to 183 then 190 & 195. I didn’t test it overclocked in 3Dmark as I don’t believe in that Religion, but in Elite Force (Q3 engine) and in UT overclocking didn’t make any higher FPS. Beats me, but I have been told that even though the ram is only 166 it has a high CAS timing. The TMU’s don’t do anything either except fill rate because multi-chip configurations get their performance simply by having multiple slower chips working together to achieve the same result as a faster single-chip set up.

Tweaks, if you want to but ‘Anti-Aliasing’ and ‘Level of Detail Bias’ are the best things to play with on this card. I have stuffed around with many features and don’t care about such things as Edge AA, HSR (running AA anyway), Guardband Clipping etc etc.

What’s this pressing “C” thing in Wicked GL?

Its like. whenever i play cs with wickedgl (i have the none registered version) is says "You are using wickedgl none registered version press c to continue" doesen't matter anymore im using a different minigl. [Blocked image]

Does anyone know where i can get a voodoo5? i currently have a voodoo3 2000 and it is a sweet card and from what i have heard the voodoo5 is much better [Blocked image]

PS does anyone know where i can get GOOD drivers for my voodoo3?

I run OpenGL with 4 Sample cos I'm a 4 Sample whore. You'll notice that the colours and especially explosions in CS look much brighter and better than OpenGL.

Sorry Tarzan I don’t, but I already have two so I haven’t be looking either. Ask Locutus as he is looking for one too.

Lotsa voodoo/3dfx stuff on www.voodoofiles.com including glide wrappers and other bits n pieces.
