Haha thank you Spyros :) When I was a kid I thought this Matrix Mystique must be a good card because it had a cool name! And I think it was good for a very short time. Then in 96/97 3dfx voodoo immediately made all existing 3d cards look terrible
Hehe true! I used to play games on consoles before I got my own PC. When I entered pc gaming 3dfx was the king ! Unfortunately for a short period of time. Most people I knew, had Banshee or Voodoo 3, Voodoo 1 and 2 were more exotic and for high end users, at least here in Greece. Next video will be featuring Voodoo Banshee or Voodoo 3.
@@spyros86 Yes me too. I had a PlayStation and it was so disappointing to see how slow Tomb Raider ran on my family's P200mmx s3 ViRGE system. Of course I was trying to use high resolutions because PCs are so expensive, they should be able to do whatever I want 😅
@@infinity2z3r07 I understand you 100% ! Imagine having a n64 playing Zelda ocarina of time perfectly and then a relatively expensive PC with an ATi Rage PRO failing half the games of the time !! After all I could play Tomb Raider 1& 2 like my friends who got a PSX 🙂
I wish I had one ! I think Parhelia was the last attempt for Matrox to present a successful gaming GPU. I would like to see more than two brands today, like the good old times
@@spyros86 strange, i have lot of old mga cards, but i had no problem with the latest official driver packs - but i will try to comapre themi in the future... :)

good old computer games and pc hardware, thank for making this videos
I hope you get your hands on a Matrox Parhelia and make a video like this. RIP Matrox, sucks that the Parhelia 2 never came out.

did You use the built-in dummy windows mystique driver instead of installing the whole matrox pack? why?
Matrox pack was really messed up, the generic drivers work better.

Cool.. mistique seems to have better lighting than voodoo.
Thank you for the comment ! Maybe Mystique has more vivid colours.
