Post by: osckhar on 11 February 2004, 00:30:40
Hi at all,:D

I have some doubt about Quantum3d X-24&Quantum S-12 cards. This is right or I am confused!

QUANTUM3D S-12= 2 VOODOO2 SLI 24MB
QUANTUM3D X-24= 4 VOODOO2 SLI 48MB

Thanks
Oscar

and what about the Obsidian 100SB ???

That is a voodoo1 based card.
The voodoo2 version is the 200sbi.
A x24 for the professional market.

oops ;)
The X24 is the consumer card.
The SB200 and SB200i are the professional cards.

Especoally tat Swaplock.
The mercury was based on 8 voodoo2's, that means 4 200SBI's.
But with swaplock you could link up to 16 voodoo2's with each other, and gain speed not features like FSAA for free.

can u give more details about the s-12 agp v2, nightbird?
Title: Quantum3d X-24 & Quantum S-12
Post by: Nightbird on 03 March 2004, 01:02:44
The only Voodoo 2 Agp (1x) in the world  :)
Black pcb (like all the Q3D products), daughtercard with SVideo and  Composite connectors, 12 Mo.
Really a beautiful Voodoo 2 but careful if you want to use it, the card is wide so needs some space around the slot Agp.
Owning the famous medusa cable can be "interesting" because you need it.

The cable to connect two obsidians together or something, someone please correct me...

Here's a pic of the medusa cable (in the center of the pic):

Not exactly ;)
This is what the manual writes about the medusa vga pass through cable :
- connect the appropriate end of the high density DB-26 connector on the card
- connect the male end of the pass through cable to your Windows display adapter
- connect your monitor cable to the female end of the pass though cable

This cable is necessary because a X24 (by e.g) doesn't own the 2 "traditional" outputs for the monitor and for the display adapter on the pcb ; only 1.

Well Nightbird,

Just give me every thing you got about Quantum3D voodoo1 based cards.
I have never even seen a 50 BTW. I am gathering info about the voodoo1 and special editionds of it, to write an article.

Yes I think you guys are right. If they where still busy with 3dfx, in 2002 (2 years after the thing happend[V]) Than they will exist today.
