Switching video cards to the Voodoo3 yields a similar result, keep in mind that the Voodoo3's High Quality setting does not make use of a 32-bit color depth as the Voodoo3 does not support it, therefore you cannot compare the Voodoo3's scores to those of the TNT2.  In any case, this comparison is not intended to be one between the Voodoo3 and TNT2, rather two show the performance differences among the processors in both situations.  A similar scenario is repeated with the Voodoo3 where the High Quality setting taxes the video card quite a bit, making the performance difference between the Pentium III 450 and the 600 almost negligible whereas it is much greater in the other tests.
