Someone called Daniel Simionescu has made a "Voodoo4 M4800" mobile graphics card. He has installed a VSA-100 and 64 MB of RAM on custom MXM-board. It has MediaTek scaler to provide LVDS/eDP output
What makes it 4800 instead of 4500 is that 64 MB, 3dfx had planned Voodoo4 4800 with VSA-101 and 64 MB of DDR.

YouTube channel Omores got one to test out, they had some compatibility issues but managed to get the thing running in Core i7-4930MX laptop. You can also see a two 3dfx chip mobile GPU (so probably Voodoo5) in the background but they don't talk about it on the video

 
Also the Voodoo 5 M5800.

I really have no rational reason to want 3dfx to still exist. It's childhood nostalgia. I inherited a Voodoo 2 that was... magical. And to this day I feel robbed of not getting to own a Voodoo 5 and getting to enjoy the T-buffer. I was saving for one. Yearning for it. My later GeForce 3 Ti200 sort of made up for it though. Aaaaaah.... nostalgic bliss.
