I will never forget going from playing Quake to playing Quake GL, with a 3Dfx Voodoo card  . This experience set in my mind forever that the GPU is King in a PC build, but I could be wwwwwwwrrrrrrrrong.


Voodoo Graphics PCI
A Diamond Monster 3D, using the Voodoo chipset

Towards the end of 1996, the cost of EDO DRAM dropped significantly and 3Dfx was able to enter the consumer PC hardware market with aggressive pricing compared to the few previous 3D graphics solutions for computers. Prior to affordable 3D hardware, games such as Doom and Quake had compelled video game players to move from their 80386s to 80486s, and then to the Pentium.[3]

A typical Voodoo Graphics PCI expansion card consisted of a DAC, a frame buffer processor and a texture mapping unit, along with 4 MB of EDO DRAM. The RAM and graphics processors operated at 50 MHz. It provided only 3D acceleration and as such the computer also needed a traditional video controller for conventional 2D software. A pass-through VGA cable daisy-chained the video controller to the Voodoo, which was itself connected to the monitor. The method used to engage the Voodoo's output circuitry varied between cards, with some using mechanical relays while others utilized purely electronic components. The mechanical relays emitted an audible "clicking" sound when they engaged and disengaged.

The Voodoo's primary competition was from PowerVR and Rendition. PowerVR produced a similar 3D-only add-on card with capable 3D support, although it was not comparable to Voodoo Graphics in either image quality or performance. 3Dfx saw intense competition in the market from cards that offered the combination of 2D and 3D acceleration. While these cards, such as Matrox Mystique, S3 ViRGE and ATI 3D Rage, offered inferior 3D acceleration, their lower cost and simplicity often appealed to OEM system builders. Rendition's Vérité V1000 was an integrated (3D+VGA) single-chip solution, but it did not have comparable 3D performance, and its 2D capabilities were considered merely adequate relative to other 2D cards of the time.

Good stuff Roo. Didn't you have a 1080 TI before? I thought that would easily handle 60fps on 4k

Correct Joe I was running the 1080Ti, but my system is  a new build with old parts I7 860 1st gen , only cost $500 to build not counting GPU cost and FPS would suffer under very loads and when running some Mod cars and tracks, and big fields on Tuesdays. CPU did not appear to be maxed out so I decided to go for the 2080Ti and it appears to have much improved the situation. 

Your wait may be over Dave O but it is WMR so tracking is not perfect.

Best to leave me out , I do not know how many races I will attend, but thank you for the thought.

This is a great car, try it at Oulton Park Fosters .

This looks good Wally .

May jump on been a while since I've done a Thursday. What time does it kick off and what car? Or just get them all?

Get them all Joe.

This would be good .
