3dfx Logo in action :
Magic moment no?

Hello,
I have another project.
I sent one of my Voodoo5 6000 Rev.3700A to http://liquid-extasy.de/
I ask him to build two Waterblocks for this card :
4 Heatsinks removed :
Draw is in progress now...
The frontside progress :

If you have any ideas, I can suggest to Marc :-)

This is the overall size of the logo. Now comes the hard part, filling that logo with a solid sheet of polished copper.
The next step is trying to cut the identical logo out of copper, just a hair smaller so it drops right into that logo and glue it into place.
-
Cutting the plate :
I wanted to have copper in the logo correct.
Sheet copper for the logo arrived (0.032" sheet copper).
...Working on logo now :-)...
Still a little more work to do, but its getting there :

The blocks are just about finished as far as basic construction.
I came up with an idea to make a seperate plate for it with the logo. I attached a pic of the 0.25" plate. The logo will go on that plate to give it some personality.
Beginning 3dfx logo :
Thermal pads :

Here is a print to scale (I hope) version of the copper section of the waterblock.
The plastic top part will have the same top and left boundaries.
Cut a prototype out of aluminum
Here is a basic prototype of the copper board that will touch all the chips.
A few minor improvements to a few lines of code and it will be ready to cut.
Block progress :
The backside blocks initial outer shape is cut. Fits like a charm.
Milling of the Vram section:
I have good news and bad news. The bad news is the O-ring sealing didnt work. Thats a simple fix-i will seal it with a silicone gasket sealant along with the O-rings. So thats really not a big issue. It will never ever leak.
The good news is the block is very effective. when i was doing the leak test i pumped some cold water and the block instantly got very cold. The performance of these blocks are very good!
Your reactions?
...Still In Development...

Hello,
After have done my Voodoo5 6000 Gold Second Edtion I have a new project : Voodoo5 6000 rev.3700A WaterCooling edition. (with a special hard work of an excellent man)
Step by step :
- Waterblocks :
That is the coding that allows the machine to make that logo on front waterblock
Delrin + Copper
Voodoo5 6000 heatsinks removed
Just a quick sketch up of the card and what needs to be cooled.
the green is the pcb, the bright red is the HiNT chip, and the 4 squares are the GPU's.
The whole back of the card will be cooled.* One large block.* a large single piece of thermal tape will be used.
The one large sheet will touch every inch of the board and pull the heat off.
the chips themselves get hot. The back of the chips were probably getting hot from the lack of cooling on the top of them.
This rear block will take off any heat the top block will produce.* It will pull any heat off of every component that it touches.
A CAD model of the card.* Things to cool in black, and things to avoid in red, and the very limited holes in the board.
Basic overall shape :
The blue outline that is the funny shape is the copper
the black outline is the overall card.
The copper is what needs to be touching the chips, so I will avoid all those red areas.
The plastic is thick enough to just mill out depressions for the components.
So the black plastic will cover the entire card
giving you the sleek appearance of a seamless block.
A copper plate that touches the HiNT chip, GPU's and Ram.
Then the black plastic is a much larger piece that covers most of the card.
Each block will be 19mm thick.
V5k6 card is 1.6mm thick, and 19mm of copper and plastic on each side
All of my stuff (WaterCooling kit).
I can't put into words, how powerful just one of those fans are.
I will have to screw this thing to a table.
I firmly believe that the radiator will levitate if all three are on.
I am still speechless from the power of a single fan.
I have all the power imaginable, and it sounds like a jet starting up

Hello, i can do this. But i need the card for any weeks or you can send me a draw of the waterblock, or videocard. ...I come from Germany...
You can see any parts of my work -> http://www.Liquidextasy.de
Best regards.
Ok PM sent.
Waiting your answer thank you

really nice. is there any limitation because of the
- Supermicro Adaptor RSC-RR1UE-AXL
- Change AGP2PCI modded @66 Mhz
?
does this adapter also works with agp 2.0 and 3.0 cards or only with the old 1.1 like vodoo?
AGP2PCI adaptor work only with AGP1/2x cards.

Who know a company can make 2 big coppers heatsinks on front and back of the card ?

@All :
Who can build all parts for me to have good watercooling on my V5k6 card ?

you could clamp four fat Tek9s sideways to it
four fat Tek9s sideways ? I don't know what is it ? explain me please... with pictures...

I do not know how much heat this card creates, so I do not know if this is a good idea.....
http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/200674400984?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar
?
A lot of heat on front, back and sdrams. We must dissipate heat.
Explain me in details how can i put this watercooling on my card and what others items i need to have please ?
I never use watercooling !
Thank you
-
Nice one
Watercool it and Vmod it, and go for 300MHz
Yes but can you help me to make a very good watercool for this card :
@ All:
I throw the distances between each 3700 A hole of the Voodoo5 6000.
Then start by WaterCooling!
Give me all your reals ideas for a watercool on my Rev.3700A please with precise patterns (plans).
We need to dissipate heat on rear, front of the card and on sdrams.
Thanks in advance

IIRC, compatibility comes mostly down to drivers. Some people on this forum have tested that bridge already.
Ok for drivers but for graphic card AGP4x AGP 2.0 (1,5 Volts) they can boot with this adaptor no ?
According to this website : http://www.directron.com/15agpguide.html, All AGP8x slot ( AGP 3.0 0,8 Volts) are compatible with AGP4x graphics cards ( AGP 2.0 1,5 Volts ).
What do you think ?
-
yes PCI-X slots (66 MHz).
What manufactures ho do make a board LGA 2011 with PCI-X slots ?
I prefer these slot because simple PCI slot work only @33MHz.
I have agp2x card + agp2pci adaptor (work better @66MHz).
I want to run 3dmark2001se to have the best score.(look my new world record on my other thread)
Anyone help me ?
-
@All :
If I test agp4x card. Will be compatible with ATOP ? is there a risk for adpator or card ?
-
Hello,
What is the best motherboard socket LGA 2011 with PCI-X slot ?
Thanks in advance
-
I will have in few days this adaptor.
Pictures :
Albatron ATOP AGP8x to PCIexpress16x adaptor will be compatible with AGP4x graphic card ?
nb. I think AGP8x slot is compatible with AGP4x card @1,5V but I am not sure.
If i test it with agp4x graphic card is it dangerous for adaptor or agp4x card ?
The chip under the heatsink :
Thanks in advance

seeing mods and cables like that is just awesome
i'm super surprised about the drivers hahahahha, i didn't know you could still find those
In the 3dfx Community there are a lot of drivers updated like SFFT 1.9 Driver - Voodoo 3/4/5 - 2000/XP/Vista/7
3dfx Voodoo5 6000 WaterCooling Edition
in General overclocking

The end of the "X" is 0.7mm thick.* That was no easy task
Here are the results
