Haven't done much testing yet except for Quake 2, which runs fine. It shows a 37.9% increase in FPS, in 640x480, compared to a 1x TMU 8MB V1.
If everything works fine, I'll upload the design files soon.

It is great result with 2 tmus enabled, I'm curious how much fps are in 4400 variant. On my platform with p2 266/66, 128mb ram, asus p2b 440bx, however this is old one v1 4MB card (but fast version), according to your cards nomenclature 2200. All tests 640x480x16, 3dm99 double buffer 1462. Unreal 16.2 fps, both nfs3 & nfs2se work fine. Glide mode ofkoz. Can you share your results from both cards v1 4400 and 4440? I'm very interested to build 4400/4440 one. Cheers!

In Quake2:
2200 vs 4400 is 1% extra framerate for the 4400.
2220 vs 2200 is 35% extra framerate for the 2220.
4440 vs 2220 is 2.7% extra framerate for the 4440.
4440 vs 2200 is 39.3% extra framerate for the 4440.

I haven't tested anything else yet.

Results will vary for other applications, depending on if the second TMU is used, and how it is used.

Perfect results, seems 2nd tmu gives a lot of fps power. I think, i'll sacrifice my 2 v1 to build your v1 with 2 tmus. It is worth, but I'l will probably cry while desoldering chips 😉 I'd to see schematics and gerber files. Cheers.
