Nice speeds Raff3DC w000t, I suppose playing in reso 1024 x 768 x16 in many glide games you can now take advatage of the FSAA x4 setting or doesn't the performance increase differ that much compared to a cores/mem 166 Mhz card?

Only the revision 320 is afaik able to run over 200MHz !
( unsed on V56K )
I'm wondering that the older one, revision 220 like yours, is able to reach such an impressive speed !
Consider yourself lucky !!!
( I own two V5 5500, and tree V4 4500, and none of them is able to go over 187 MHz !! - they all have the revision 220 )

heh my VoodooMAC 5500 PCI 64MB Rev.A1 3100 with 6ns Toshiba ram did 191Mhz clean no glitches, but when OC to 195 or higher the glitches come by [8)]

hmm i think Ver PCI is better to O/C than AGP !!!
look for a cards PCB - Pci got more condenser and tranzistors
and more Voltage on chipset/mem -

Obi-Wan Kenobi change cooling on your Voodoo ;)
my Card in stock cooling overcloc to 195-6 mhz (stable)
when i changed cooling

arctic Silver 5 + Zalmans and Cu Coopers for Rams

boost to 210mhz !!!

hmm your advantage is the 5.5ns SDRAM I reckon, my ram is only 6.ns while yours is 5.5ns that does help in most occasions, but I rather keep my 3dfx cards original thanx, since that they are collectors items thier value will only be dreased when modded from thier original state, sorry.

Yes, I also think the 5.5ns ram is your ace in the hole for your OC speed increase. The VSA's are rated by 3dfx for 200Mhz, but the 6ns ram has a top speed rating of 166Mhz. 5.5ns ram has a top rating of 183Mhz.
