It is a collectable. Last card 3DFX made. I would definitely take that for my Voodoo 5500. If they are getting that, I will go put my card up for bid on eBay.

God I miss the voodoo series. The first gfx card I ever bought was a voodoo3 3000 16mb. It was for my parents' PII 350mhz compaq. That card was pretty hot when I got it -- and it got me through Half Life nicely :)

Saw a couple AGP ones go for $50ish. PCI version runs more because there were less of them...that and maybe because there's always been a PCI slot in a system, but not necessarily an AGP one.

I two Voodoo AGP 5500s myself, Deus Ex 1 and UT ran great on them in GLIDE.

The reason that the PCI version is worth more is that the AGP ones will fry newer 1.5V agp mobos.

I have a Voodoo 4 4500 in both AGP and PCI versions. I had the 4500 AGP in a Gateway 800Mhz K7 box and recently upgraded that box to a 2.0Ghz Celeron when my father-in-law's business upgraded here recently. This box is for retro glide games, but mainly it runs Final Fantasy VII and VIII when I feel the need to play them some more.

I used to work a block or so from the old 3dfx building, and some Asian church congregation had taken it over... :(
