sdram memory? isn't it a daytona card?
where did you found that jewel?
no, its dated 4299, very early for a Voodoo 4... so it cannot be a VSA101
and SDRAM was just usual on a Voodoo 4 4500, but with 6ns and not with 5,5ns like mine...
card purchased at ebay.
i read about 4800 daytona cards with ddr memory, so i was surprised founding one with sdram; but it's normal for vsa100
any bench?
gary also has a voodoo 4 with 64MB, its also called 4800... and there is also a 4800 with a daytona chip, but complete different layout and DDR RAM! (this one: http://www.voodoo3dfx.com/Fotos/Prototipos/Pagina%20Prototipos%20400x/voodoo4%204800%20ddr.jpg)
you want benchmarks, here is 3dmark 2001 (1024x768 16bit): http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8930114
:D :D :D :D
2670 Points in 3DMark is not bad at all, and with a 1700MHz Duron.
With my v5 5500 i get almost 2500 points, with a xp2000, same frequency....
but its only 16Bit! and its no duron, its an Athlon XP-M 2600+ @1666Mhz...
and on 32 bit? in comparasion with a 32Mb version....how much points you gain with the aditional 32 Mb?
i will test it on this weekend.

some infos from various programs:

Very nice card!!! that was a diamond :)
Why do your Q3 timedemo 1 framerate is very low?! I got 80-90fps whit my V4
maybe because i did have to run it at AGP 1x... and thus i run the 4500 also at AGP 1X for better comparison!
Shame that 3dfx ditched the TV-out support on Voodoo5. For a long time it was a very sore point with me.
@ Darkfalz
you meant TV support for Voodoo4 , there were no Voodoo5 prototypes with TVout's but that would of been a nice Addition indeed.
No I meant Voodoo5 (or Voodoo4) because I had one, and always wanted TV-out. Was nice when I finally got TV-out on FX 5200.
I tried two seperate scan converters which were expensive and got crappy results, I returned them both.
Please share the BIOS of that Voodoo 4 4800 64Mb :)
If you have the time to save it, please send a copy to me at my email adress: Komponent@gmail.com .
Thank you!
