Title: Voodoo5 5500 AGP text
Post by: razrx on 28 March 2009, 22:02:11
Hello everyone!  [8D]

I am looking for French and/or Italian text that is on the Voodoo5 5500 AGP box.  I am looking to make a v6k retail box with German/French/Italian text.  My 5500 AGP box only has German text.  Sending photos would be the best.  Please post here or email me at razrxd at gmail.com

Please help.
thanks!

It looks authentic. I would add the XP tag as well underneath though. Thanks for sharing.

WinXP does not belong on that box because it was not even around when 3dfx made the Voodoo5 series.

the best NTFS OS of that time was Win2K.

@ razrx

No XP logo is needed, it's authentic as it is now mate ;)

Thanks for the input.

I have spent a lot of time building the V6k box from other Voodoo boxes, specifically from the V5 lineup.  No V5 (or V4) retail box states anything other than Windows 95 and 98.  However, the VoodooTV FM box was the last retail box made by 3dfx before closing and it is the only one I know of that states:  Windows 95, 98, 2000 and ME.

But, since no V5 box (AGP, PCI, PCI for Mac, VoodooMAC) states 2000 or ME, it has been left off the V6k box as it wouldn't have been included by 3dfx if they made a retail box for the V6k, is my guess-timated assumption.
