Sharky Extreme heeft een review gepost van de Voodoo3-3000 in PCI smaak. De performance drop tov zijn AGP broer is niet groot te noemen:
Overall, the Voodoo3 3000 PCI's performance was pleasingly good in OpenGL and pretty good in D3D as well. It made an excellent showing against the GA660 Plus. The surprising thing was that the Voodoo3 3000 PCI hardly fell behind the V3 AGP. While the Voodoo3 3000 PCI was almost always slightly slower, even the largest performance gaps between the two cards was small. So despite all the wonderful bandwidth of AGP, at least with the Voodoo3, it hardly makes a difference to performance. It should be noted that the V3 AGP does not support AGP texturing, but instead uses 3dfx's own proprietary main memory texturing methods. If it did, there may have been some performance improvement in the 3DMark 16MB and 32MB textures for the V3 AGP, where textures larger than the V3's onboard 16MB of memory were used. But this would not have made a large difference to the scores anyway, especially since the V3 AGP does use the AGP bus and its larger memory bandwidth even if it doesn't use DIME.
