I think this is a JOKE?.....or are the people on the forums over at http://www.tdhq.net/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl on some serious crack?

Supposedly they're working on Voodoo 5 drivers that add support for a slew of features the VSA 100 doesn't even have support for. Anisotropic filtering etc. That's not the sad part. The sad part is the forums. These guys swear up and down that all new cards (GF4, Radeon 8500 included) are not only slower, but have worse image quality than a V5. One guy says he owns a GF4 and a V5 (Bloated 55) and doesn't say it, but hints that the GF4 has better image quality. Now any sane person knows the GF4 has better image quality, so does a Radeon(the original) but this guy is imediately labeled a troll. Not by another board member, but the f***in admin of the site. The admin even went as far as to change the guy's forum status to "nVidiot: Blind and Loving it."

Honestly, if you want to see what someone sounds like when talking with their head wedged in their ass, head over there and read the "3dfx Discussion" forum. Be warned though, you may wet yor pants. I seriously cannot stop laughing.

You may have to really read all of the threads.

Catch 22
In a pigs ear it does. I have a Radion and a Voodoo 5 card and the Radion makes mincemeat out of the Voodo card.

Simply dead in the water Voodoo zealots. I have a friend who runs an Imagination Technologies site thingy (which resulted in me being pumped loads of gumf about the Neon something or other before it finally totally failed to come out), and one look at the conversations he has with the graphics card community saddens my heart that some of mankind can be so tremendously and martyrically anal about some things.

Catch 22
