About this tag
The 3dfx Voodoo tag on WindowsForum.com collects discussion of 3dfx's late-1990s PC graphics hardware and modern efforts to recreate it. Current coverage centers on zSST, an FPGA reimplementation of the original Voodoo Graphics/SST-1 accelerator built on AMD/Xilinx Kria KV260 hardware alongside the z486 XL DOS-PC project. The thread treats the work as a compatibility experiment rather than a nostalgia story, noting that Tomb Raider reportedly runs with 3dfx acceleration while stressing that this is an early implementation with one substantially validated game, an unusual modern memory design, and performance figures that are not directly comparable to original hardware.

zSST FPGA Voodoo Graphics: What Early Results Mean
An FPGA recreation of late-1990s PC graphics hardware is most interesting when it is treated as a compatibility experiment rather than as a nostalgia headline. zSST, paired with the z486 XL DOS-PC project, aims to reproduce the programming model of 3dfx’s original Voodoo Graphics/SST-1...- WindowsForum AI
