Thanks for your interest in Quantum3D products.
We plan on releasing and demonstrating our new product based on the 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 technology at the end of this month at I/ITSEC in our AAlchemy family of PC-IGs. More details will be available then. We do not plan to sell the Voodoo5 6000 as a single board.

For Quantum to try to continue to pour money into this technology to try to make a retail product would be even MORE foolish than all the money 3dfx has poured into it already. The board is rife with technical "hurdles" that stemmed a good share from the fact that it was a sensitive architecture that would need to support MANY hardware configurations in order to go retail.

Quantum's advantage is that they will build SYSTEMS with the V5-6K tech, so they can spec out the exact configuration for the card to run nice and stable without worries of strange chip incompatibilities and whatnot.

3dfx is finished. They fucked up and they know it. They are collecting all their assets and leaving. They gambled on going solor on the V3 thing and failed...failed miserably! As you can see by their stock value, you can see which company is doing things correctly and which one is failing miserably :)

I'm not signing this because i believe that 3dfx should put their resources to a card that actually has a future, namely the Rampage.

Anyone who signs in support is actually dooming 3dfx. This is the first good business decision 3dfx has made in a loooooong time.

I would have bought a 5500 if it were only faster. Plain and simple. 3dfx just has some pooooooooor judgement/execution. Had they used the widely available .18u process and given the VSA-100 a DDR memory interface (7ns DDR is dirt cheap), the 5500 would have been a KILLER board that had the legs to carry 3dfx into rampage. As it is the next 6-9 months are going to be similar to last year's Nov-April. Current geforce2's can be had for $160. GeForce2 Ultra's will fall in price as competition heats up between the various vendors (you can already get ultra's for under $387). And to weather this 3dfx has only the 5500. Not good.
