* **Voodoo Graphics:** the original Voodoo model, with a single Texture Mapping Unit operating at 50 MHz.
* **Obsidian SB50 + Amethyst:** a variant of the Voodoo Graphics, equipped with a second Texture Mapping Unit like the Voodoo 2.
* **Voodoo 2:** the second Voodoo model, with two Texture Mapping Units operating at 90 MHz, as well as SLI support.

* **Voodoo 2:** the second Voodoo model, with two Texture Mapping Units operating at 90 MHz, as well as SLI support.
* **Framebuffer memory size** / **Texture memory size**: amount of video memory to give the Frame Buffer Interface and Texture Mapping Unit(s), respectively.
* **Bilinear filtering:** apply bilinear filtering to smooth out textures displayed on screen.
* **Screen Filter:** apply a filter to make the screen picture resemble the DAC (digital-to-analog converter) output of a real Voodoo card.
* **Render threads:** allows the Voodoo workload to be split into multiple threads. 2 render threads are recommended for host systems with more than two CPU cores.
* **SLI:** add a second Voodoo 2 card to the system, connected to the first one through Scan Line Interleave (SLI).
* **Recompiler:** enable the Voodoo recompiler for faster emulation.

Recompiler
^^^^^^^^^^
Enable the Voodoo recompiler for faster emulation.
.. note:: A host CPU with SSE2 support is required for the recompiler. SSE2 is present in most CPUs made since 2005.
