As the title says... I have three Trident ISA cards, which is probably three more than I need, but I'm gonna keep one around as a spare and get rid of the other two. I am aware that none of these are "great" cards, but do any of them offer anything different than the others? Would any of these work in an 8-bit machine?
The top one is an 8900CL that came out of my 386. The bottom two are both 8900C and look virtually identical, including sharing the same FCC ID (8916CX2/4/8 LC2), although the chips have different date codes. (MQTJ009/9240 vs MQTG031/9229.) The one on the right has 70ns RAM.
I'm leaning towards keeping the one on the bottom right, unless someone has a better idea.
