Beautiful 
Anthony's Voodoo5 6000 remake project, Seems exciting for sure!

confirmed successful functioning on X48 and G31 systems with a winme os. guys have complicated setup with 2 videocards and 2 oses, xp + x850pe, winme + my card.
winme don't like more than 2gb ram, exposes slowdows, thou.
-
go for the ram patch:

doesn't help. guys will try to hire a mobo bios hacker to make a bios patch
-
ahh ok.
-
anyway, only a jerks (or a big enthusiasts) interested to run win9x on a x48 chipset or something like that
-
do you have some videos with the card in action ? would love to see it

Hi Anthony,
please keep us updated on every step of the progress - especially when it comes to the part where orders can be placed.
Best regards and have a nice week,
Raff

things going slowly even if i want it quicker, sigh. second batch of pcbs has been put into production.

Seeing that your 4x1 design is looking quite a lot better than I expected, my apologies for my past posting all so off topic in ways.
I do happen to see that this project of yours does have potential for those that have interest for it, even it's still just a replica, doesn't mean it's bad
So all good there.
Hmm ever thought of doing a 2x2 design like the 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 AGP 128MB Re.41-4999 Comdex board?
Cooling a card design like this could be done with fans as this pic from gdonovan shows on the left or with heatsinks as the card ion the right has:
Since Quantum3D Managed a design like this for their Qantum3D AAlchemy 4116, card owned by my friend AmigaMerlin from 3dfxzone.it
And their later 8132/64 card series for their AA5 systems:
Unless a 2x2 design would of brought too many complications?
Even that a 2x2 design would of made the card a lot smaller, that would of been a nice improvement if it would come to a redesign of this complex concept.
Kind regards. -

that kind of layout is much more expensive in pcb production, that's why no such working prototypes exist. 3dfx picked most cost-effective design for 4-chip board
aalchemy has 16-layer board, i presume, who will pay for that? also there's a lot of 0402 passives, big pain in the ass to assemble such small components for me
just wondering is that 4116 board functional? who ever seen it in action?
-
It is functional yes gdonovan has one with a dark brown PCB which is this card, only the ones with the dark brownPCB are named AAlchemy 4116V, what the V means I have no idea actually hehe
Here his card:
Seems the dark brown PCB variant uses a different powerboard.
Here an other photo pf the green PCB'ed one that AmigaMerlin owns or owned, not sure if he still has it tho.: -

meanwhile, testing vsa based cards on high-performance systems exposed some issues like micro freezes or stuttering in some games. looks like i865 chipset is a maximum. if we see pci-ex, we see stutters, benchmarks are ok, but real game performance suffers. no surprise, thou.

No idea man I could look in to that for you, most likely something from Quantum 3D not sure if they have a driver archive for the 4116's tho., might be worth looking in to.
Gamma742 aka Bob Waller would have to be your guy I have his Facebook I can always pass you through to him, idea?

An old topic from FalconFly's old forum Gamma742 was the ultimate Quantum3D guru if you needed a driver he always had it, gdonovan aka Gary Donovan owns one of these AAlchemy 4116 cards the AAlchemy 4116V one with a dark brown PCB.
gdonovan is also a member of this forum so you could try and get the driver via him as well.
Here his info page of his 4116V card

The reason why I used a Proxy server to enter it, is because it seems to have an unsecured connection to it. for very odd reasons.
Anyways I hope this helps you out a somewhat
