For the final episode of #GPUJune, let's explore the forgotten 3dfx Voodoo Rush! It's the Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde of the 3dfx lineup, sporting an Alliance Semiconductor AT3D as its 2D card and, well, the AT3D is not a good card in 2D and...disturbingly awful in 3D. We'll put it through the paces, and see what it can do. Does it hold a candle to some of the Voodoo 1? Why was it forgotten? What's up with that Alliance chip? Let's find out on this episode of RetroTechBytes!
