Title: Voodoo3 Bios (which one do i get??)
Post by: briznet on 25 February 2004, 17:58:36
Hello   I got a Voodoo3 AGP    At beginning of PC startup it indicates i have version 2.15.07-SD       The question being: 1 Do I download the same version, or get the highest one like software?
and 2 Are the BIOS files here the latest?  Or is there a site i can go to with the dates showing how old/new the bios file is?  Because there would be no point in flashing the bios with the same .rom file..
Thanks in advance!![|)]

Don't flash your card unless you have a problem. Voodoo3 doesn't get any performance boost anyway and ver. 2.15.12 has slower ram timings[:X]. So, be fine with 1.00.01 or whatever[xx(]

Wrong, 2.15.12m has slower ram timings (for better overclocking). 2.15.12 has the normal agressive timings :)

BTW briznet, I assume you have a V3 3000?
