Isn't that a Voodoo 2 12MB? I had two of those, and a TNT2 at the time.

But it's the Voodoo5 that actually almost was half that length. Did anyone remember the prototypes?? like 4 GPUs or something crazy....

I got one as a hand-me-down. Good old 16MB ownage. I modded a P1 heatsink and fan onto it and overclocked it.
