    Man this was an entertaining thread to read through LOL. I supported this book as well and got myself a copy. Pretty awesome to have if you love 3DFX/Quantum3D!! Hope you’re all enjoying your night! (:

    Took me years to find one but I finally snagged this 100SB-4440 (The optional shader modules are fully functioning replicas that were made by "Anthony" if I remember correctly.) Came from overseas! For those of you that don't know what this card is. It's Voodoo 1 SLI on a single board (: Very...

    Hi there Declan ;) Nice to see you and your X-24 again!! Didn't know you had a V5 6k that's awesome!!

    Yeah I was figuring it was going to go for 800-900. Still way more than I'd pay for a 200SBi though personally.

    No yours is an X-24!! Awesome card man!! :) Actually my favorite single card option and a nostalgic one as it was my first taste of Voodoo 2 SLI. The 200SB has the addition of the connectors on the left-hand side of the board (opposite side of riser board) You can see in my photo and compare.

    Gary Donovan will probably have more than anyone else on here but sometimes there are some randoms that have insane stuff which is always super cool to see :D

    Hello there everyone! I'm a Quantum3D hardware collector and I figured I'd take the time to make an official page for anything and everything Quantum3D! A thread for dedicated collectors to post their glorious collections or newly obtained boards from Quantum3D! I'll start it off with my...

    CPU overheating with waterblock.

    Yeah I think I'm gonna try the AIO again to make sure it still has the same results it did last time and that nothing changed.

    CPU overheating with waterblock.

    I've checked and I had correct flow correct on both blocks, still even then I don't think reverse flow would make a cpu on that voltage hit over 100C.

    CPU overheating with waterblock.

    Mobo definitely didn't get wet between swaps as I'm very careful when doing these things. Yeah maybe I can try a different motherboard or something, I think I have an MSI Godlike x99 board at work I could just throw in temporarily to test with. The idle temps seem a bit high to me also, if I...

    CPU overheating with waterblock.

    Hey all, I just rebuilt my desktop with an MSI X99A SLI PLUS motherboard with a 5960X and I have the 5960X on a big custom loop with a 360x88 Monsta from Alphacool and two 120's (Two GPU's also in the loop and two ram banks) I have come across a really strange issue where I can't seem for the...

    Primary Image Piranha SLI 3DFX Voodoo 2 64MB PCI Graphics Card, Extremely Rare

    X2 that's a LOT of dough for something untested... No matter the rarity.. I personally love to play on my hardware and use everything in my collection or else it's kinda pointless for me. I don't buy boards to be expensive paperweights, but to each their own lol.

    Old-School: Half-Life Running on a Quantum3D Mercury Brick

    This makes me so happy!!! To see your collection is still so awesome all these years later!! Just look at those V5 6K's!! You've always been a huge inspiration to me for collecting this stuff. Do you still have the Rampage? I think you had two of them?? BTW Nice 200SB with the Alliance 2D (:

    Old-School: Half-Life Running on a Quantum3D Mercury Brick

    That's what I like to see!!!!! I know you've sold a lot of your stuff, I'd be interested in seeing what you have left in your collection :) I would have never expected this to blow up like that.

    I would have never expected that! :O WOW

    Old-School: Half-Life Running on a Quantum3D Mercury Brick

    The power draw should be somewhere in the realm of 80-90W total between all 4 boards. Basing that off of reading forums about power consumption of a single Voodoo 2 board (At around 10W estimated) So 8 = 80ish. Then factoring in the XILINX Spartan processor on the bridge and all that jazz...

    Old-School: Half-Life Running on a Quantum3D Mercury Brick

    Doesn't have to be noisy.. I'm just overly cautious, especially with something worth this much/this rare. It means a lot to me. Would be much quieter inside a case with airflow designed for it and all that jazz, however for testing purposes I prefer a bench setup :) Well the dual slot 1 boards...

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    I can get those games and do a video when I get them!! I don't have any video capture equipment so that I can look into. Good ideas :) Also I've never played Forsaken or Descent.. Do you recall what API's those use?

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    Okay guys, last night I was playing Unreal and Half-Life on this thing just fine and let me tell you.. The image quality is absolutely amazing with the 4 tap RG FSAA.. I plan to do a full video on this brick with as much information/interesting things included as I can think of. If you guys...

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    Yeah I've got an X-24 and another 200 SBi that is an 04 rev board. I just wanna keep getting more and more Q3D stuff but honestly even if I never get anything more I'd be happy with this brick and what I've got. But yeah that 8164 was artifacting, it wasn't DEAD DEAD but way more trouble than...

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    That's absolutely awesome!!!!! I've been searching for a 100SB for a while now aaaaaaaaaand... Yeah... Impossible to find... When I find one I bet the guy will want 1K if not more.. Btw I almost got an AAlchemy 8164 with the original PSU from my Chinese friend Fei but the board ended up being...

    Well much more progress has been made! :) We're right on the edge of getting there boys!!! VERY exciting stuff.. (Don't mind my ghetto pass through cable.. A much better solution will be made in the future!!) Having something like this was only something I thought was possible in dreams.. I've...

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    Welp the blue 2D passthrough was caused by a shorted CYBUS3384QC 10 Bit digital bus switch. Massive shout out to my good friends JJ Dasher and George Rudolf Mezzomo with helping me troubleshoot this board.. Now it's 100% perfect with a new chip! That means I now have 4 100% perfect Quantum3D...

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    Thank you very much (: In the photo it was before the soldering but I didn't drag across the pins like most people do because I was just trying to be as cautious as I could be with the pads. Doesn't look quite as amazing as the dragging techniques I've seen, but I would hate to screw up a pad...

    Hahahah that's awesome! Unfortunately I only learned about Quantum3D around 3 years ago.. Been following standard 3DFX stuff for a while now though (:

    Quantum3D Mercury brick

    That's awesome!! I also myself have an X-24 with a homemade Medusa cable. :) My X-24 was my first ever form of SLI and it's my favorite single card I have ever had hands down. Bought it a few years ago and ever since I've been hooked on Quantum3D hardware!!

    Thank you for the very kind words (: I really appreciate things like that. I'm honestly not the smartest guy at troubleshooting hardware faults but hey I am learning! (:
