Beyond3D - Which was nice. The SLI acronym, although getting the message across, wasn't entirely accurate as far as VSA-100 based products were concerned as it no longer relied purely on single Scan-Lines. It wasn't until their next chip, VSA-100, did "SLI" crop up again, although this time not as a multi-board solution but a single board with multiple chips. VSA-100 could scale to 32 processors within a single rendering system, although for the PC only 1 (Voodoo4), 2 (Voodoo5 5500) and 4 chip (Voodoo5 6000) boards were planned, although the 4 chip implementation never made into retail availability due to power and AGP bridging issues. www.beyond3d.com /reviews/nvidia/sli   (655 words)

SystemLogic.net - 3dfx Voodoo5 5500 AGP Review The other thing is the entirely new VSA-100 chip, contrary to some popular belief, the VSA-100 is not an upgraded Voodoo3 chip, it's been entirely redesigned to be able to support many new features… especially T-Buffer, FSAA, SLI, etc… Did I mention it's also a heck of a lot faster? It is something that a gamer shouldn't play without after being experienced first hand. Some of you might be thinking that 640x480 with FSAA is the best it gets but that's not true. www.slcentral.com /reviews/hardware/videocards/3dfx/v5500   (451 words)

3D SPOTLIGHT - 3dfx Voodoo 5 5500 AGP review  - Part #2 If a display is split into 64 lines then one VSA-100 chip would render the 1-32 band, while the other would render the 33-64 band and so on. The display can be spilt from 1 to 128 lines or certain lines may assigned to a particular VSA-100 chip, e.g. Interleave), in many ways it is a more advanced form and in some it is a step backwards, e.g. www.techspot.com /reviews/hardware/voodoo5_part2/voodoo5-4.shtml   (532 words)

UGeek Geek News - 3dfx Voodoo 5 The Voodoo 4 uses a single VSA-100 processor, while the Voodoo5 series of cards use two or four of these processors, achieving over 1 GPixel/second fill rates. The VSA-100 alone is a 4X AGP graphics chip, running at 166-183 MHz with a 350 MHz RAMDAC, supporting 32-bit color textures. www.geek.com /news/geeknews/oct99/gn19991116000331.htm   (260 words)

Retro-test : Voodoo 5 6000 Instead to use one VSA-100, why couldn't we use 2 of them? Because they couldn't follow ATI or nVidia in the performance domain with a single chip solution, 3dfx used it's SLI technology with the latest graphic processor, the VSA-100. Starting with the Voodoo 3, 3dfx accumulated delays in the performance and technological domain compared to it's direct competitors and this was the beginning of the end...on 14th December 2000 3dfx was bought by nVidia. www.x86-secret.com /articles/divers/v5-6000/v56kgb-1.htm   (451 words)

[H]ardOCP - ATi Radeon Review There are some games that look simply stunning with awesome FSAA (ala 3dfx VSA-100). The 3dfx "jittered method" of FSAA is probably the best method I've seen of implementing FSAA, but the Radeon does a pretty good job of implementing FSAA as well. At higher resolutions, there is a significant draw on the card itself, making FSAA at or over 1024 x 768 not very feasible. www.hardocp.com /article.html?art=MTEzLDM=   (600 words)

VolariGamers :: View topic - Some XG45 info Because that is crap for dealing with the uneven load that is typical of modern graphics?Even 3dfx gave that up in the vsa-100 line.NV also has SFR, which helps where AFR breaks-I don`t think that XGI can do that. But they relaxed the scan height not because of "the nature of multi chips on single board", but because of image filtering. Perhaps I worded the first part wrongly-it`s bad because the process was used post the RAMDAC stage with analogue data, any slight timing issues being noticeable as the odd and even lines could be slightly out of sync. www.volarigamers.com /viewtopic.php?p=9479   (1531 words)

NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX 7800 GT 7600 7300 6800 ATI Radeon X1900 XTX X1800 XT X1600 X1300 X850 - MVKTech The Voodoo 5 5500 contained two VSA 100 graphics cores on one board connected via SLI (Scan Line Interleave). 3dfx's SLI stood for Scan Line Interleave and operated by having one card (or one chip) render the odd number of lines on the screen, while the other card (or chip) rendered the even number of lines on the screen. The only likeness they share is the idea of increasing performance using multiple video cards, and the fact that the name for the technology can be made into the same acronym. www.mvktech.net /index.php?option=content&task=view&id=1045   (871 words)

Sharky Extreme - News - From Inside The Industry The Voodoo5 5500 exploits the power of two VSA-100 graphics processing chips running in parallel by coupling them in a Scan Line Interleave (SLI) mode configuration and performing 3D acceleration from both chips simultaneously, resulting in a doubling of overall 3D performance. www.sharkyextreme.com /archives/june00_10.shtml   (155 words)

NEWSPAGE DEUTSCH RIVASTATION - There´s something FISHY when you can read this! As a result, we opted not to show the VSA-100 in public at CeBit and showed it only to select members of the press and media. Due to some silicon processing problems, the A0 spin has been reduced to fairly low operating frequencies, in addition to suffering some video ramdac problems. The part is extremely functional and robust, with only a few minor bugs which will be fixed in the A1 silicon spin. www.rivastation.com /news/0230news_de.htm   (155 words)

Ars Technica: GeForce2 GTS  Page 4 - (5/2000) Earlier versions of this driver were "leaked" out onto the 'net in the beginning of March, quite interestingly close to 3dfx's VSA-100 announcement. The upshot of this is that the 5.16 drivers are not public, but they do represent what NVidia believes to be the best drivers for the GTS right now. That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, as as much as I like a good yarn, I'd guess that the driver was leaked externally. www.arstechnica.com /reviews/2q00/geforce2gts/gts-4.html   (612 words)

3Dfx Glide for UNIX There is no intention to work with the 3Dfx accelerators based on VSA-100 chips (namely, Voodoo4 and Voodoo5), because they're significantly different from previous Voodoos. Glide 3.x from V3 Linux x86 binary distribution was built as a stand-alone library. Glide is now an open-source, but almost dead API (Application Programming Interface), because it strictly depends on the 3Dfx hardware. www.alasir.com /glide   (511 words)

Support for 3Dfx Cards on Mac OS X Petition We the undersigned implore NVidia to re-examine their plans for supporting 3Dfx products, at least those based around the VSA-100 chip (Voodoo4 and Voodoo5), on Mac OS X. NVidia was recently chosen by Apple to be the OEM supplier of graphics chipsets for high-end Macintosh computers. Of course, NVidia is not bound by the promises of 3Dfx.

HardwareCentral - Previews - 3dfx Revisited. - Introduction After months of delay, 3dfx is finally about to release its next generation products, the VSA-100 multi-chip based Voodoo 4 and Voodoo 5. 3dfx is enhancing the “visual experience” by using a feature that it calls the T-buffer--technology borrowed from high-end graphics workstations--to accomplish this.  Essentially each frame is rendered multiple times to the “T-Buffer”--each time with slight variations--where they are recombined to produce effects such as anti-aliasing, motion blue, depth of field and soft shadows.

In August 1999, 3dfx introduced the first version of its beta drivers for the Voodoo3 to the Mac development community in order to enable leading game developers to create Mac versions of their best-selling WindowsÆ PC games, and to attract more cutting-edge 3D titles to the Mac platform. 3dfx and Creative are two of the best known names in the PC world - their support of the Mac will not go unnoticed by other companies that may also jump on the Mac bandwagon. www.xlr8yourmac.com /Graphics/3dfxVSA100PR.html   (1816 words)

Accelerate Your Mac's new Home for 3DFX News and Reviews! The issue of AGP not supporting 2 devices must require an AGP specific firmware/workaround (despite the fact the VSA-100 chip is a PCI device). But beginning with the Voodoo 3, all the drivers were built on top of Glide 3, which supports windowed mode and 32-bit color. The Voodoo 1 & 2 drivers were built on top of Glide2, which was only full screen. www.mac3dfx.com   (5185 words)

Ars Technica: GeForce2 GTS  Page 7 - (5/2000) While we hear that the FSAA effects on the new VSA-100 based 3Dfx chips are pretty neat, we haven't actually seen them yet because we haven't gotten a V5 to review. Full Scene Anti-Aliasing (FSAA) is simply a technique used in 3D rendering to remove those little jagged edges that are a product of making circles with a series of dots in a grid. We theorize that in order to justify a $300ish expenditure every 6-9 months when a newer, peppier video card comes out, one has to consider it a sort of tithe to pay to the 3D acceleration gods, but we digress. arstechnica.com /reviews/2q00/geforce2gts/gts-7.html   (1058 words)
