i was wondering if theres a known way in which i can possibly use some parts of another voodoo 3 2000 and add them to another...maybe its possible, maybe im being stupid....theyre both AGP.....therefore i cant have them both in at the same time....it'd be cool if it was possible to take the memory off one and add it to another.....i.e a 32MB voodoo 3 2000....thats just crazy though.........any ideas?...twin 3dfx chips.....hehe........welcome to the unknown...........

i don't think the Voodoo3 handles beyond 16megs of VRAM. I would suggest selling one and putting some cash in the ole pocket.

those 2 cards can be "linked" together for some pretty impressive graphics. Notice the IDE like connector on them? =)

No, only the Voodoo2 cards could be linked for SLI mode, not the Voodoo3s.

I don't see what you could do to have one help the other. Unless you want to run two moniters, just get rid of one of them or both and drive on! :)

I've heard they're floppy connectors, but I never tried....

And about the ram, you probably would have to write some new drivers yourself, due to the non existing of 3DFX. R.I.P.

but that would be nice.
