I'm thinking about using one topic to post all my stuff - cards, computers, etc. I've got the cards part done, so there it is. All of those are part of my collection and some of them will probably be used to set up my rigs (I've still got some to mount 😀 ). Sorry for the bad pic quality. I'm only listing the cards that aren't on my systems - will list those later.
VGAs:
ISA:
Trident 8900. Haven't tested it yet.
PCI:
Trident 9440. My first videocard. I've used it on my old 486 (which I don't own anymore, unfortunately 🙁 ), then on my K6-2. Working fine.
Trident 9680. Working on VGA mode, but on SVGA @ Windows I get some nasty artifacts. Probably one of the memory chips is bad.
S3 Savage4. Working fine. Too bad Windows 3.1x drivers don't work. Found one of the most bizarre artifacts I've ever seen: I was playing some Duke 3D with it. When I set Windows to work on SVGA with the correct drivers, I'd be greeted with Duke's quit screen (!!) and a system lock.
ATI 3D Rage (Mach GT64). Working fine.
GeForce 2 MX400. Working fine.
AGP:
Trident Imàge 9750. Working fine.
nVidia VANTA 16. Still have to test.
SiS 305 32MB. Used this card on my K6-2. Finished Max Payne on it, even though I had some VERY laggy moments (I used a trick that consisted to look up maps/places that had heavy-processing, so there was less stuff to be done by the poor card 🤣 )
SiS 315. To be tested.
GeForce MX440 (triplets!). They were working the last time I fired them up. have to recheck.
(yet another)GeForce MX440. To be tested.
GeForce Ti 4200 with an "aftermarket cooler" 🤣 . Was working last time I tested it (about three years ago).
GeForce FX5200 128MB. To be tested.
Radeon 9200 LE. To be tested.
Radeon 9200. To be tested.
Radeon 9600 Pro. Working fine.
Radeon X800. To be re-tested.
Sound cards:
ISA:
SB16 Vibra (2x). To be tested.
SB 16 PnP. Working fine.
AWE64. Defective 🙁 . Actually this was the first card I've bought, but since I lacked TI skills back then, the person that I trusted to couldn't seem to have the skill needed to diagnose the problem (I bought this on a Adventure 24x Kit, could've replaced it easily if I knew it was defective).
Crystal-based card (SB16 clone?). To be tested.
Yamaha-based card. To be tested.
Another SB16 clone. To be tested.
Crystal-based SB16 clone. This looks it have some potential. To be tested.
PCI:
Aureal Vortex 2. Working fine.
SB Live! 5.1 Digital. Working fine. Funny enough, this use a EMU10K1 even though the packaging is similar to the one used on 10K1X. Creative and their crazy engineers with lots of variations 😵
Other stuff:
Creative DXR3. To be tested. AFAIK it was never used.
Asus Falcon II. To be tested.
Conexant-based generic capture card. Working. I have the FM antenna, remote and IR receptor.
Adaptec 2940. To be tested.
Adaptec 39160. Working.
Later I'm updating with the system I've already mounted and the motherboards still waiting to get a nice and comfy case 😀
