A gift from someone.
A revision G of the famous Diamond Monster 3D boards. It has a 500-0004-02 TMU and 500-0003-03 FBI. The TMU is the Texture Mapping Unit and places the textures onto 'things'. The FBI (Frame Buffer Interface) combines colors, adds fog and is able to do alpha blending, dithering and stuff like that. These two chips together are the actual Voodoo Graphics chipset.

is there anything very special about the rev. G? One just left ebay for a whole 50 euro, just curious.
No, it's not a special revision. The G revision is the last revision if I'm not mistaken but it doesn't run faster or better than the more common E revision or even the first A revision.
50 EUR is quite a lot but 3Dfx cards tend to go for high prices these days, even the common Voodoo Graphics cards like the Monster 3D.
