Great for TV, 3d graphics not bad for a cheaper model

by calebu2 , Dec 16 '00
Pros: We can watch TV on the computer whilst working
Cons: tech support / driver updates are not the best
I really don't make full use of the 3d graphics on this card, so I'm not going to write another review about how many megapixels it can draw in any given time span.

I played unreal on it and it looked pretty smooth at high resolutions. Tiger...

Beware - video capture and DVD playback!

by sodakar , Nov 09 '00
Pros: Glide support, good all-around video card
Cons: no DVD hardware decoding, 320x240 max video capture
I'll keep this short and sweet. There is NO DVD hardware decoding, and video can only be captured at 320x240. If your emphasis is on DVD playback and capturing video of your vacations and such, this card is not a good choice. Consider the ATi...

A few frames faster than the fastest V2...

by psykosis_fc , Sep 26 '00
Pros: GREAT value compared to everything except the GeForceMX
Cons: Limited Lifespan--v5 might be a better choice for 800Mhz or faster PC's
I finally succumbed to an upgrade madness--a new motherboard (Asus P3V4X), processor (celeron2 566) and Vid card v3 3500tv. This setup is replacing my old setup--dual overclocked 466's on a Tyan mobo with a #9 128/Quantum3d Obsidian200SB combo. The...

3DFX 3500 TV Is A Great Value

by cidd , Oct 04 '00
Pros: External A/V control pod makes it easy to connect all of your cables.
Cons: Needs better Video editing software, and the TV-tuner bugs need to be fix.
It's a pretty damn good card. Here's a true FACT: Your going to need a Pentium 3 500 or faster to get the best value out of this card, and that's a problem most people have out here.

The feature I like the most is the kick-ass external A/V...

Great card but short lifespan

by Sangamon , Jan 07 '00
Pros: Great graphics, audio and video inputs, and outputs
Cons: Price, limited life
Well I went out and bought the 3500. First off let me say, WOW. What a card. I was upgrading from a V2 and really was impressed with the graphics. Now while some of you will say that it doesn't have 32 bit color, I know, but for compatibility with...

TV Tuner w/ 3Dfx compatibility

3dfx Voodoo3 3500

-PRO, TV TUNER, Great for college, you can watch TV and play the latest 3D game. The Voodoo3 3500 is worth...

THE FASTEST, but still not the best.

by Spoon , Dec 02 '99
Pros: VERY VERY FAST, GREAT FRAMERATES, NO SLOWDOWN
Cons: showing its age, TNT2 faster, GeForce 256=the ultimate
The VooDoo name has been followed up with the word "quality" ever since the first card of the new-fangled technolagy was realeased. But 3D-FX has been falling behind in the 3D race, ever since the VooDoo3 series was realeased. I'll be...

The FASTEST Voodoo3 Card available!

by gimlix2 , Mar 10 '00
Pros: TV Tuner, fastest 3dfx card available, one card does it all
Cons: 6-foot Pod may be inconvenient, proprietary monitor plug
3dfx's Voodoo3 3500TV is an extremely nice card. It combines a decent 2D engine, the 3D acceleration that is 3dfx's fame, and also a TV Tuner.

I have both the Voodoo3 2000 PCI and the Voodoo3 3500TV and have benchmarked both using 3DMark 99...

V3 3500: Good, Bad, & the Ugly

by blusavana , May 09 '00
Pros: Fast, feature rich, great gaming bundle
Cons: 16-bit color, 16 MB RAM
The card: 3dfx's Voodoo 3 3500 TV AGP. It has 16 Megabytes of RAM, blazing speed, and tons of nifty looking special effects in games. I love this card, but I know it's downfall. Although retail says roughly $240, you can find this card for much much...

Powerful!

by kdogg , Jan 18 '00
Pros: power, power, more power
Cons: price
This card smokes!!!Just upgraded today from rivatnt. No contest, its all about the 3500. The installation took me awhile to straighten out,(I had a missing driver, or something-still not quite sure) but once I got it running, wow. There is NO lag in...

As seen on TV ?

by J_martin , Jan 31 '00
Pros: 800 X 600 FPS
Cons: limited video-capture features
Folks, I'm here to tell you about the Voodoo3 3500 TV. Imagine the raw power of a two-card Voodoo2 SLI (scan line interleave)rig consolidated into one board, with both the memory and the graphics processors clocked to a super-speedy 183MHz. How much...

Voodoo 3: A mixed bag but worth it

by otaking , May 09 '00
Pros: FAST!
Cons: Sudden crashes w/o warning
Just after the release of the Voodoo 2, I picked up a card manufactured by Creative Labs (Graphics Blaster Voodoo 2) and I had to say, at the time... it was a good solid card which impressed me enough to want to pick up the next step in 3d acceleration...

Sound Blaster Annihilator

by midnight_10 , Apr 09 '00
Pros: fast, 15 million triangles, the best out
Cons: none
I believe that the Sound Blaster Annihilator is probably one of the best 3d graphics accelerators out. It has its own processor and its own colling fan. Its much faster than any Voodoo or other graphics card out, and has 15 million triangles compared to...

Good deal if you need all the features.

by buschur , Dec 14 '99
Pros: Lots of features, Fast 2d and 3d
Cons: 16 bit color, most features not used
The Voodoo 3500 is a very nice card that can adequately handle all of your graphical needs with it's great processing power, but it does have some drawbacks. One drawback is that if you are only using it as a 3d accelerator you are wasting your money....

O/C the Voodoo 3500

by Mrcomputers , Mar 22 '00
Pros: Great Over clocking. Runs good, Linux support
Cons: 16mb ram no reason for the card to be APG
I have 2 video cards that I switch out but the main video card I use is me v3500 I love my V770 but it doesn't over clock like the Voodoo. I have me Voodoo 3500 running at 203Mhz that is 20Mhz above default. The program I am using is great.
