Summary: RJ Watford of Cleveland, Ohio
Review: The product is easy to install but I was not particularly impressed with the display clarity on the television. I also had to spend quite a bit of time reseting my monitor after the install process. Finally, the written instructions were okay but could have been better, i.e. written for rookies and veterans.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good card, but lacking somewhat
Review: The V3 3K is a good card for the mainstream, budget gamer. However, if you are looking in this price range, I'd go with an nVidia Riva TNT2 Ultra--unless you really like to play nothing but old Glide games.

If you're willing to spend the extra $$, go with either a GeForce2 GTS(64mb), GeForce256 DDR(I own one--very fast, though not quite as fast as the GTS previously mentioned), or a Voodoo5 5500.

Summary: This card is liquid smooth, fast and value wise unbeatable!!
Review: The Vodoo 3 3000 eats up the RIVA TNT, SAVAGE 4 and all other 3D cards in the same price range. In Quake II at 1028 x 768, I was getting 40 frames per second but in comparison to that I'm know getting a mind-boggling 85 fps (on a Pentium II 300 with 98 MB RAM) !!! The bottom line is that if you don't want to shell out too much cash on a 3D card (as things seem to change in the computer world every other day) but don't want to compromise on performance, the Vodoo 3 3000 is the best you'll get!!

Summary: good card
Review: The Voodoo 3 is a great card that replaces both your 2d and 3d card. As far as graphics go, it is only a little better than the Voodoo 2. I did notice that the lighting effects are more realistic though. If you have a Voodoo 2, then the upgrade may not be worth it unless you just want one card for 2d and 3d. Over all though, I think this is one of the best accelerators out there. The price is nice also.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best card for the money, by far
Review: The Voodoo3 3000 is simply a great product. It will work perfectly with every single PC game in existence, and offers unbeatable 2D performance as well. I would recommend it without hesitation to hardcore gamers as well as dabblers -- you just can't go wrong with it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gamers choice
Review: there are 8 gammers here who love this car and the 3500 model. This is our #1 choice for christmas of 1999

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Looks good but watch out for stability/compatibility issues.
Review: This card gave me no end of grief when I upgraded my motherboard. After much swearing and wasted time I discovered that the MB wasn't compatible with it. Make =sure= yours is before installing.

That said, I hated to give it up, it looked so good and ran so smoothly. It's not cutting edge by any means--wasn't even really when it was first released--but price/performance-wise it can't be beat. (I replaced it with a TNT Ultra which never looked as good or, it seemed to me, ran as fast.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing!
Review: This card is quite simply the best. The frame rates are amazing, and Amazon.com's price is the best you'll find. If you are a gamer, you NEED this card!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Multiplayer enthusiast
Review: This card is so easy to install and start running I thought I was dreaming. Compared to the ATI Rage Fury card I have recently purchased and had much trouble and reliability with, the Voodoo3 3000 is a godsent. For everyone who has an AMD cpu and Super7 motherboard, get the Voodoo card instead of the Rage Fury, you will save yourself alot of money and headache. Plus this card has the same latency and just as good graphics as the Rage Fury for less money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW!
Review: This card is so fast and really high resolutions, it's simply incredible. I play Tribes and Half Life at their highest resolution settings and don't have any delay problems. It has a video out as well, but I've never had any desire to make use of it.
