Only one. But the seller had all kind of interesting things. Matrox mistique with memory upgrade , virge pci with sgram (?) and TV Out , some voodoo cards . I actually though that was the alusive i740 board with 16 mb , but it wasnt.

It may be "nice" but that InControl99 is a real jerk of a panel when it comes to stability. I would prefer the older S3 cards for such a machine.

this isn`t a diamond card , it is a propriatery dual savage 4 VGA board. I have no idea if the standard S3 savage drivers will work with it...

Seems like an amazing card, and rare.
What's the dos performance like?

I have a feeling this card will be "useless" in a 486 build , most likely it will be "useless" in anything that doesn't run the windows version it's drivers were designed for...
Cool card but of no interest in real retro-usage IMHO unless benchmarks prove otherwise or something

I assume the dual GPU can't be "SLI'ed" together and instead it's for dual-monitor?

Anyhow, interesting find!
