    Voodoo 2 has 2 pixel processing chips, each with 1 pipe, so voodoo2 = 2 pipes.
    Banshee has same pixel processor as voodoo2, but only 1, so banshee = 1 pipe.
    voodoo 3 = 2 pipes
    voodoo4, 5 5500,, 5 6000 all use vsa100 chips. Each chip has
    2 pipes.
    voodoo4 = 2 pipes(1 vsa100 chip)
    voodoo5 = 4 pipes (2 vsa100 chips)
    voodoo56k = 8 pipes (4 vsa100 chips)
