Default A Look at 3dfx's Cancelled Rampage GPU

3dfx Interactive closed down nearly two decades ago, but the defunct graphics card maker lives on through fans such as Oscar Barea and MartÃ*n Gamero Prieto: the latter shares images of the company's cancelled graphics card, the Rampage, which was initially developed in 1997 and has become quite the collectable. While the project was never completed, several cards were manufactured, and these are detailed in Prieto's new book "The Legacy of 3dfx." As Martin Gamero Prieto told us, Oscar Barea is the owner of two Rampage cards (a third was exchanged for other prototypes) and both used a dongle (adaptor) due to an error in color design but are completely functional. Both were issued directly from 3DFX's labs and were saved from destruction during the company's last days. What stands out about these tests is the possibility of completing the 3dMark 2001 thanks to a more specific and operational driver.
