Are there any specific branded models of this chipset that are any kind of easy to acquire?
I've been going through what's left of my hardware and decided I'm done chasing hypothetical "ideal" setups per any given goal. I've decided to just recreate the machine I had back in the mid-90s and deal with any limitations and challenges in running games that it may bring. I never seem to find myself with any kind of affinity or affection for the machines I've pieced together over the years. The point of this hobby, for myself anyway, is to actually play the games. The hardware is merely the tool to let me do that.
My original machine had a Trio64V2/GX integrated into the motherboard. I've looked through the usual places, ebay, amibay, vcf forums, but I can't find a stand alone board with this specific chipset.
Are there any common ones? Is there much of a difference from the /DX or earlier V+ boards that are WAY easier to find and much cheaper?
