Hi,
I got a pile of stuff, including what I think is a VRAM expansion board for perhaps Matrox cards?

Could someone verify?

See attached pictures

It looks like there is a mystique G220 (Compaq) that would also fit these.
I found this in a pile of stuff that I saved from the recyclers.

I've got no use for this, so it's available for just shippings costs (from Finland)

Yeah you are correct but both uses same ram chips for S3 GX Compaq 2MB and this mystique G220 for Compaq which is also 2MB and same frequency.

Compaq tend to reuse same pinouts for many boards and cards for several memory modules for video chipsets.
