Ok now the Englisch Version,

But my Englisch is not really good.

Here is my 3dfx Witchdoctor Colletion.
What is Witchdoctor ?  

Read here

http://tdfx.de/ger/spectra2500.shtml (Deutsch,German)

There follows an overview of this Nvidia an 3dfx Cards.


5x Canopus Pure3D
3x Canopus Spectra 2500
1x Canopus Spectra 3200

The standart Canopus Spectra have a Menmory of 10 Ns SG Ram.
The other Riva TNT cards from the other manufacturer company have 10 Ns Sg Ram to.
But one of my cards have Chips with 8 Ns  (really) [:p]
This is a secound Edition of the Canopos Spectra i think.

Now some text files of the manuel Handbook of the Spectra 2500

Higher Maximum Resolution- The Spectra is the only Riva TNT based board to offer a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1440 in 32-bit color mode providig four full, correct aspect ratio, windwos of 960 x 720 pixels on a 20 or abouve monitor.

But this is not last Fetuare what the Spectra 2500 can more then the other normal TnT1 cards.

+ Canopus VideoPort 6000

+ Spezial Snapshot Program driver for Gilde on the orginal driver CD

+ The other TnT1 Cards run wih 90Mhz but the Spectra is Overclock to 125 Mhz. Butthe price is, they need a aktiv Cooler. [B)] good or bad ?


Canopus Spectra 2500 125MHz
Standart TNT1 90MHz

This make 35MHz more by 90 MHz what 31,5% more MHz power is.

+Wichtdoctor Gilde on TV over the Voodoo2

+You know how on a normal Voodoo pass-through setup the Voodoo card outputs the video signal to the monitor right? On the Spectra 2500 it works backwards! The video out signal from the 3dfx board is fed into a special port on the Spectra card. This way there was no degradation of the 2D signal over 1024 x 768 AND you could enjoy TV out with ANY 3dfx card since the signal was being fed into the Spectra 2500, pretty slick those Canopus engineers!   Quelle from here ....
