Diamond Monster 3D II 8MB 3dfx Voodoo2 PCI + ATI Rage LT Pro AGP – Compaq OEM PairFor sale is a period-correct late-1990s graphics combination consisting of a Diamond Multimedia Monster 3D II 8MB PCI 3D accelerator, based on the legendary 3dfx Voodoo2 chipset, along with a Compaq OEM ATI Rage LT Pro AGP graphics card.These two cards appear to have been used together: both have matching Compaq Computer Corp. inventory/asset stickers numbered 48125. The ATI card also carries Compaq-specific identification on its memory module, while the Diamond card has Compaq OEM/spare-part labeling on the rear.I cannot verify the exact original Compaq system they came from, so the cards are being described as an apparent matched Compaq pair rather than claiming a specific system provenance.Diamond Monster 3D II

TestingBoth cards have been tested together and are working properly. The ATI Rage LT Pro was tested as the primary display adapter and the Diamond Monster 3D II was tested for 3dfx 3D acceleration.Tested under Windows 98 SE using Diamond/3dfx drivers and successfully ran Unreal and Need for Speed II SE using Glide acceleration.No graphical corruption or other problems were observed during testing.Included in sale:

The passthrough cable allows the ATI card to serve as the primary 2D/display adapter while the Voodoo2 provides dedicated 3D acceleration, as these cards would traditionally have been configured.Both cards are in good vintage condition with normal signs of age and previous installation.
