Massive performance boost!

by ActionCubed , Jan 18 '00
Pros: Fast!!!! Nice graphics!!!
Cons: Expensive
I honestly don't know much about 3d graphics acceleration in general, except that they all sorta look the same to me and they always enhance the performance of the computer in terms of graphics.

I bought the Voodoo3 3000 PCI card because it...

So fast, it's kinda hard to believe

by GreyDigger , Jun 12 '00
Pros: Fast rendering, clean, crisp graphics, works with MacOS/Windows/Linux
Cons: Doesn't support 32-bit color, get a Voodoo4 or Voodoo5 for that
First, let me make this clear. I have not used the Voodoo3 3000, I have the next one down, the Voodoo3 2000, which isn't that much different except for the speed of the card.

I have always been a fan of 3Dfx interactive ever since the...

Does the same as Random Access Memory

by IGITMAN , May 10 '00
Pros: Boosts speed and better graphics
Cons: Rare defective drivers or cards
The notion that the only way to increase your computer's performance is to increase the Random Access Memory, (RAM). This is a big misconception. All ram does is make room for files you wish to use; it pulls files from the Hard Drive. However, there...

A Gamer's Dream!

by Ni-Cad , May 30 '00
Pros: Great computer monitor graphics!
Cons: Resolution on the television is not the greatest.
The Voodoo3 3000 3D graphics card, in my opinion, is one of the best 3D cards on the market for computer gamers. It has 16 megabytes of video RAM, and is worth every penny u pay for it. I'm quite a heavy gamer, and this card has served me well. From...

The Fastest 16MB Gaming Card on the Market

by jsunshine , Jan 13 '00
Pros: Incredibly Fast, Cheap
Cons: The TV Out Could Be Better
The review for the Voodoo3 3000 is very simple: It is the fastest gaming card on the market! As a bonus, you can get it for $100! The only big problem I have with this card is that the TV out doesn't work as concistantly as it should. But, who cares its...

Gamer's neccessity

by qwex , Oct 30 '99
Pros: fast, very fast
Cons: not as many features as the TNT2
3dfx has consistently been at the top of the 3d acceleration arena. Even with nVidia's latest offerings, I feel confident that 3dfx will continue to please.

The Voodoo3 3000 is a great video card. It has the solid Voodoo3 chipset, so you get...

Mad Crazy Graphics For A Low Price

by ShOrTyG , Dec 09 '00
Pros: Fast RAMDAC and RAM, 16 MB, PCI bus, High resolutions, High refresh rate
Cons: no cons
I bought an E-Machine E-Tower 500ix and it had one of the worst graphics cards I have ever used. I checked around, looking at all possible graphics cards, and I found that the 3dfx Voodoo 3 3000 was the best card for the money. I went to the Best Buy...

Has my vote too...

by Furo , Jun 26 '00
Pros: Fast, smooth gameplay. Great operating system compatibility outside of games.
Cons: OpenGL still lacks stability.
The Voodoo3 3000 AGP seems to be the standard by which a lot of other cards are measured now. Sure, there are some that do better, but there are a LOT more that can't touch this card. For the price, the performance you get is as good or better than...

A must have for any gamer.

by j120 , May 19 '00
Pros: Nice Graphics, Cheap, Does not burn up, easy to install
Cons: The picture on the box is a little distracting.
A few months back I was looking for a better card to play EverQuest with. With my Matrox Mystique 4mb card it looked a lot like a game without any textures, everything was white, and to tell you the truth it just plain sucked. So I saved up $120 bucks...

I just got done installing my new Voodoo 3 3000 AGP card. This card really kicks some a**. I can not belive how fast and smooth this card is. I am running on a PIII 550e FC-PGA with 192 Megs of ram. I did some benchmarks with Quake 3, Unreal Tourny,...

If you do voodoo this board's for you.

by enderwiggin , Nov 12 '99
Pros: extremely fast, 3dfx support
Cons: none
This blows my rage pro/diammond voodo2 combo out of the water! not only does it take up less space, It is so much faster for both 2d and 3d application. Add that to the fact that this card was cheaper than the voodoo 2 board i bought, and i don't have to...

Good value card

by andymease , Nov 18 '99
Pros: good support, 166mhz, overall good card
Cons: limited TV options, 16 bit(not a big deal)
I recently put together a computer this summer. Now being at college and all i had to be sure to buy a 3D card that would suffice for playing such games as Rainbow Six/Rogue Spear. After looking around www.pricewatch.com, which is a great site to visit...

Best buy

by nowayman , Oct 13 '99
Pros: great 3d and 2d speeds. low cost
Cons: not as fast as some 3d cards
The Voodoo 3 3000 is an awesome card. It is probably the best gaming card to date. Quake II, Quake III, and Everquest were written to be used with this card, to mention a few. This Voodoo card has it all. It has a superbly fast 3d accelerator and is...
