My guess - the or 200+. Lots of gold to extract 😉

It's worth more to a collector than as scrap.

Today:

NOS Yamaha DB50XG 😁

So that's what the box looked like. Cool.

The Cyrix 6x86 200l is a great little chip, the 75MHz bus speed really makes it go well, lot cooler than the standard revision too, who cares about boring old brown quake anyway? 😉

There are at least two variations of the box (I have both).

What's on the CD?

Some weird MIDI software (EDIT: Demo-version of 'Yamaha Visual Arranger'), with samples, and a folder full of MIDI-music by Yamaha, from what I could tell 😀

One of the few cards missing in my collection has finally arrived 😉

Huh. A 3D accelerator card without hooking up special cables. I'm guessing that card pushes the appropriate acceleration needs to the 2D card?

Bought lately, a Diamond Monster Voodoo1 board missing the backplate, an IF-SEGA2/ISA Saturn pads interface and one of the Sirius MovieCD collection:

I thought the NV1 was the only way to get SEGA gamepads on PC?

Couple of new things

Supposedly the original 64MB Fullclock Radeon DDR
Now I have all 3 of the original TnL cards (GF256, Radeon DDR, and Savage2000)

Matrox Productiva G100 4MB. I bought this because I wanted a card with a strong signal for 2D games and Matrox is the goa'uld standard.

This is how the original PC Radeon 64Mb DDR looks, it's a photo of my own card:

I obtained it recently as part of a lot and had to identify the card to search for drivers.
Radeon's Ark demo looks and runs great in it (what a strange demo, bump mapping, illumination and reflexions on PS3 level combined with models and animations that look like early Dreamcast 😲).

I thought DDR memory chips wee always square and the rectangular memory chips were SDR? Is that not true for the Radeon?

I believe the DDR SGRAM you are referring to js a package early ddr ram was made in it was later manufactured as DDR SDRRAM like here.

And right after getting an IBM 6x86 L 200+ I got this one:

Yay! 😀

Also this (not retro but retro-related):

(I accidentally placed the order three times, 2 more are underway. Pretty stupid. Don't drink and eBay people!)

Rainy office day had some brighter moments.

Sorcerian actually supports game blaster, which is nice.

It's just not true period. I have a GF256-DDR 64MB and the chips are rectangular like the Radeon shown. I have an original Radeon 64MB (says 'Rage6' on BIOS) and it is identical to the one that was posted.

yep! It was quite a busy day for postmen...
