Wanted Voodoo 5 5500 for Macintosh

[Moros II]

Hi, I am looking for a Mac version of the Voodoo 5 5500. Preferably boxed but I'm open to just the bare card.

Please let me know if you have one!

Still looking for one. Will pay good money!

Looking for one still.

Just a possible hint:
Once I owned a Voodoo4 4500 Mac Version with DVI output. The idea was to test, wether the DVI output would work or not in a mediator amiga setup. For this purpose I needed to flash the rom of the card to PC version. That was no problem, the card worked fine in a PCI PC setup, but DVI didn’t in amiga setup. There was an option to flash it back to Mac version afair.

I thought it could be helpful for you to know, if you don’t already, that there is a possibly a way to do a „reverse flash“ with a Voodoo5 PC PCI version of the card.

Anything I mentioned here is referring to the PCI Voodoo card versions.

Thank you for the feedback, it's very insightful! I'll keep that in mind when working with PCI Voodoo cards.
