I will add something to the topic, because I have been looking for 7zx / 7zxr for a long time, and i`m still looking for. Well, not every revision 5.0 does not have isa. In the attachment there is a photo of my mobo. Apart from isa, dualbios and chip creative - r ev 5.0 only supports FSB 100 . If …

1. Will the voodoo1 bracket match voodoo2?, 2. Are there any relatively cheap gpu that the bracket will fit on voodoo2? Maybe matrox?

Pictures of the seller, symbolic price so there is no loss, but was there a voodoo 2 with no memory on the back of the card? The solder points appear factory-tinned.

I marked the missing capacitors with red. I soldered them. The capacitor in the audio section (smaller) is twisted because I had to solder directly to the grommet - the pads were broken.
