Hello! I Bought recently a Hannstar 19" wide tft running @ 1440x900@60hz.

I tried through the D-SUB exit of my monitor to use my VooDoo rig, however i could select res. up to 1280x1024. Same happend even after i instaled tfts drivers. Running desktop at lower res. is pretty ungly and VERY exhausting for my eyes[:(]

I am using amigamerlin's drivers and Windows ME.
Thanks :)

Voodoo4/5 Discussions / Cooling V5500
31 May 2006, 16:01:54
Summer's comming and in Greece temperatures grow rapidly...

In my AT case my poor V5500 causes system restarts when rendering 3d graphics because of the the high temperatures (i couldn't keep my finger on her because of the temps.) More than that, the USB 2.0 pci host i installed leaves only ~0.5cm of air gap between her and V5's first fan.

The sollution is found with my 12cm TT silent fan. I made a hole in the case so it could get air from the outside and throw it directly to the first VSA and the other cards! the case temps are a lot better.

What i thought, is that if the TT can do so much work, and it is silent, an the fans of 5500 make a lot noise and do nothing, why not removing them! but, will this benefit or not my V5500? i will remove only the fans, not heatsinks (that would be stupid by me :P)

Also, i have 2 486 cupper heatsinks. They are bigger than the stock ones. And since they are from cupper i believe they would do better work. What do u say? :)

Hello greeting to all... First post :)

I Had an old Banshee card (still have it... and love it) a long time ago but then i wasn't aware of what the name 3Dfx ment. Anyhow i grown up, and about 3 months ago i found a VooDoo 2 of Diamond multimedia on a friends box of old hardware. He gave it to me and i was and still am thanking him for giving her to me. Yesterday another friend of mine found me another 3D monster II, but this one instead of the first (8mb) this one is 12mb. Will SLi work on these two? Ah and also, how much heat do they raise? Cause i might think of a "slight" overclocking ;):)

Sorry for my english... (i speak england very best :P)
