3dfx Voodoo5 5500

Just like in the Athlon test bed, the Voodoo5 5500 overtakes the GeForce DDR by a healthy margin at 1280x1024 in 16 and 32-bit color. Only the GeForce 2 GTS can beat out the top of the line 3dfx card, and only by a measly 2.8 fps in 32-bit color. Raw fillrate keeps the GTS out in front by a large margin in 16-bit mode.

Nothing much changes at 1600x1200. The GTS's raw fillrate maintains the large lead in 16-bit, while memory bandwidth limitations keep them neck and neck in 32-bit color.
