I reckon its either one of those Voodoo1 SLI boards, or one of those Quantum Professional OGL cards that used 3dfx chips (/me remembers the one with 32 VSA-100's on it)

Close Bodhi, but there weren't any AGP Voodoo 1 boards.

it's a Quantum Obsidian S12 AGP card. The only Voodoo2 card made for an AGP slot. It requires 2 slots really, as the TV/S-Video out sits to the right of the "special" vga i/o port making it all but impossible to use on an ATX mobo unless it has an AMR/CMR slot to the right of the AGP slot.

It sux 'cause the video out only works when games are running. I was gonna use it for a game/entertainment machine for the living room, but found that it wouldn't work like I wanted. Quantum tried to help me out a bit with getting the thing to work, but I couldn't get it happening.

Bah.

I've been stuck with it for the last year and a half or so. Only paid $40 USD for it, so it wasn't a total loss. I'd be pissed if I paid the $200+ for it when it was new.

A classic reinterpretation of the Fork-Handles type theme.

You remember too much Summo :/

I guess you could say I collect weird pc stuff. I have several Artist Graphics 2000i viddy cards. One of the first consumer 3D cards with OpenGL support. You can expand it's memory with 72pin simms. I have one with 10Mb or memory on it. Slower than shit from a turtle's ass tho.

Also have an old Packard Bell SB16 clone card with the CDROM interfaces on it.

I have a Matrox M3D PowerVR card. I used that for a couple of years. Paid $25 for it; I think I was ripped off.

Hmmm... still have a few other weird things. Can't think of 'em at the moment.
