Lee,
Yes, on one of our test machines we have tested using the Voodoo 3. We
contacted 3dfx about this and they confirmed there is a flaw in their
drivers for texturing. We waited months for a new driver but so far
haven't seen a fix yet. In the same machine using a GeForce 256 card
(Elsa Erazor X) essentially tripled the frame rate (same application
from 15 fps to 45 fps).
