Hello everybody,
first images of the new project by developer Anthony:
A new Voodoo 5 6000![:0]
As stated by the developer, the graphics card he created is identical to the 3dfx voodoo5 6000, the same Bios, drivers and performance (for now) are identical to the 3dfx video card.
This board was created with the non-destructive Reverse Engineering technique, thanks to which it was possible to obtain the entire electrical and functional diagram and the components of an original 3dfx without destroying it.
I would also add that the PCI connection and the new redesigned pcb of the video card have been improved!
The original V56K was loaned to him by a very dear friend of mine who lives in Argentina, Alexey Chigirev, known for his passion for the 3Dfx world and beyond.
A warm Thanks goes to Alexey!;)
you will find this News and all the other creations, mods, etc etc created by Anthony.
Thank you so much Anthony!:)

Hello Nightbird,
thanks for reporting me ... ;)
I didn't answer you before because the notification email went to the spam folder ... [:p]
However, in the description of guru3d there is an inaccuracy because the video card is not pci-e but pci and the additional power supply is there but it is internal with mollex 4 pins:

Hi m14radu and welcome back,
I'm also curious to see it, I also prepared the soldering iron and the drill for the first mods :D
Seriously, I can't wait to check the real performance and how it behaves with the various platforms and games available.
If could create a set of drivers, or adapt the latest ones available, it would be a big step forward.
See you. :)
i bet it would run smoothly :)
would be nice to get the 256mb version or even 512mb :)
( remeber the v4 from Komponent moded to 128mb ? )
and with dvi or hdmi....would be awensome !!!!
see ya !

Yes, I remember the Komponent mod, it was legendary as a mod, it exceeded all the expectations of the official 3dfx statements!
I remember that he had made a diagram of the v4 4500 with high resolution photos and modified bios, but nothing is found online, at least I have not found it ...
For the dvi / hdmi output I think there are limitations in the drivers that do not allow to extend the signal to 4 vsa-100 chips, but only with two chips ...
i might have the pictures somewhere on my drive if needed :)

Man, if you can recover the photos of the works and the modified bios, it would be a great contribution from you ...;)
i do my best :)
