Like a nuke reactor labeled "3dfx"...

by Treen , Nov 22 '99
Pros: faster than a monkey on crack, looks nicer than the Mona Lisa
Cons: ...could power a nuclear submarine with the heat in generates
A while back I got meself a 3dfx Voodoo3 3000. I don't know what compelled me to pick it up but I did. Maybe it was the purty box. It had some nice features like s-video out and alpha-blending, but I think the biggest selling point was that it came with...

Raw Speed

by Super_man , Jan 05 '00
Pros: Fast, Glide Support, TV-OUT, Cheap
Cons: No 32-bit Support, Not That Great Image Quality
Before you by a Voodoo3 card you should no that it doesn't have as many features as the TNT2, such as 32-bit color depth. But what it does have is speed. It's faster than the closely priced TNT2 ($150), but slightly not as fast as the more expensive TNT2...

Still no 32 bit color

by thepanther , Aug 31 '00
Pros: Good setup and Drivers
Cons: no 32 bit color, Glide going out of fashion
the Voodoo 3 3000, no question it had speed. The card was fast, fast enough to cope with all the games that could be thrown at it. But the card has its problems, firstly the fact it can only do 24 bit colour, maybe not top of your priority lists but I...

You can do better

by CyrixDes , Sep 13 '00
Pros: not bad for its age
Cons: can do a lot better for a similar amount of money
The Voodoo3 3000 was the middle 16 Mb version of the then new offering from 3dfx, the Voodoo 3. The distinguishing features between the different models of the Voodoo 3 range ie 2000,3000,3500 were basically a quicker chipset as you move up and also the...

Great Card!

by AOK727 , Jan 20 '00
Pros: Works for all types of games
Cons: None
If you're looking for a great 3d card for not TOO TOO much money, this is the one for you! It works great and turns not so good games into great ones. I bought it even though I only own a few computer games and it was definitely well worth it! It...

Graphical Sweetness

by Joecool19_007 , Jun 21 '00
Pros: Excellent Graphics, low price, great compatibility
Cons: I couldn't find one.
I got a 3DFX VooDoo 3 3000 with my computer, and I'm glad I did. Excellent graphics, compatibility with basically all games, and good processing power push this to the top of the graphics card charts, right next to its big brother, the VooDoo 5.

Realistic Graphics

by Lorelord , Jul 13 '00
Pros: Enhanced graphics textures, Operating speed, Price
Cons: Lots of similar products out there
Now I may not be an Advisor, but I'll give you some quality facts in language you can understand about this product. My previous graphics came from and Intell chip that was already installed in my computer when I bought it. I like to play games, such...

Wow! This really does make a big difference !

by louthebug , Aug 22 '00
Pros: great performance for a great price
Cons: none yet
Well, I have to say, that this VooDoo 3 3000 PCI card DOES make a big difference.
First of, let me tell you about my PC.
I have a eMachines 500is and it only came with a intergrated 8 meg ATI graphics card.
At first, I did not have a...

Amazing Graphics!

by poseidon Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Oct 09 '99
Pros: Fantastic board! Great redraw, great frame-rate, great colors & speed
Cons: none
OK...

I just purchased a 3dfx VooDoo3 3000 AGP board. What can I say? This is incredible! I replaced my Diamond Monster 3D-2 board (12mb) and my ATI Rage Pro (8mb) board. While I lost 4mb of video RAM, this single 2D/3D board is faster,...

The Voodoo That We Do

by Candude , Jan 13 '00
Pros: Widest software compatability
Cons: Runs quite hot
Ever since I got into computer games about 6 years ago, the Pentium was fresh on the scene and video cards were a whopping 2 meg. Doom was the number one game which flew on my 486 DX4/100 and which I still play today. Video cars have come a long way...

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...

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...

Gamer?? Get Voodoo!

by airskater , Nov 11 '00
Pros: Great price, good graphics, plays great for games.
Cons: Not as powerful as new Voodoo cards.
Ah, the voodoo 3.
Although slightly out of date now, I use VooDoo3 for extremely popular, and fun online games such as Quake, and Half-Life. Its amazing what it can do considering its price. With the latest VooDoo5 5500 AGP out, its not quite worth...

A Rip-off for an AGP slot

by orangefob7 , Nov 07 '00
Pros: good for someone using a PCI card
Cons: the price, and everything about it
If your computer has an AGP slot and is able to handle faster cards, this is not the card for you. The AGP version is not a very good card. It offers very low frame rates in non-glide games. For example, in a Half Life mod called TFC, I get around 18...

Voodoo 3 Rocks

by aznkoo , May 08 '00
Pros: Good 3D graphics, good frame rates, inexpensive, good resolution
Cons: not excellent when running 2D graphics
I just bought a Voodoo 3 3D card , this is the best graphic car I have ever had. The Voodoo 3 3000 runs rings around ATI's Rage Fury and posted speeds of up to 65 frames per second (fps) at 800-by-600-pixel resolution . There are the Voodoo 3 chipset on...
