Does this card really exsist ? I own a Winsprint 1000 VLB (with artist GPX chipset). It support gouraud shading but no texture mapping. I know the 2000 was produced in PCI variant but no photos/clues about the VLB version ?! (3GA chipset)

Does anybody have tried to use a full opengl pipe on a pci 486 system ? I think about an E&S AccelEclipse PCI or an Intergraph Realizm with geometry accelerator. These boards are not "fill rate killers" but capable of handling all load of a 3d workspace in game. The Transform & Lightning fashion was …
