I'm not sure if a standard SB 1.0 bracket would fit on there (if a dead one pops up that is beyond repairs), but I digress.

I think it would since the Snark is a 100% replica. Finding a SB 1.0 is not an easy feat and I would prefer to make new brackets. I found this website [1] a while ago. There might be something there...

Never saw this one here. Didn't know about it too and don't know if it's worth something or that it's even good.

Volt converters for my ATX-64 came in the mail today....

This NOS dual display adapter based on two CL-GD5429 chips. Found it in local ads for cheap.

Thats a cool photo but does this card just mirror the primary display ?
If so what good is it ?

I have no idea, and I won't check anytime soon (I think about starting a vintage PC youtube channel and I don't play with all the peculiar hardware I own until I finally decide on it).

Also CL-GD5429 is supposed to be the fastest (or at least one of the fastest) ISA compatible graphic chips, although 60ns memory chips may hold it back a bit in this particular card. I wonder how it will perform against the fastest ISA card I own so far (WD90C030 with 45ns memory).

I thought this is worth mentioning here 😀

Yesterday I received for ram sticks: 168p Edo 50ns ECC 😁

This will hopefully be a nice match for my IBM PC 300PL 😁
This IBM only takes EDO on the 168p connector, any sdram don't work, guaranteed.

Memory support depends on the exact type of 300PL. My uses SDRAM.

I have two kits sitting here waiting to be build. The only thing I'm missing is the bracket and I don't like the 3D printed ones. Does anyone know if proper metal ones are available somewhere? I guess the big problem is the DB15 hole since it's oddly shaped....

I'd probably take one off a winmodem where some part of the phone hole lines up with the D-15 and file, dremel or nibble it into D shape.

How much was the card?

It came in a 25EUR bulk with a ECS P6SET-ML mainboard (Slot 1 and Socket 370) with Celeron 466MHz and three sticks of SD-RAM, all working
Makes me happy 😀

That's amazing.

Bought this the other day.
Didn't have this one in my collection yet 😀

How about an Analog Devices development kit (seller's pic):

Regarding 168 pin EDO ECC sticks:

Do you have your topic thread with pictures and details about your particular IBM PC 300PL?

Cheers,

Got 2 nos Nvidia GeForce4 MX440L.
The boxes look cool, cards are not the best you can get but the price was o.k.

Seller's pics:

440L ? What does the L stand for ?

Bought a mixed bag of Cables, Fans, adapters, etc for $15 today at local thift store. Has as a lot of unused case Fans, Asus cables/parts (including a dual USB back plate for older P2/P3 type board), EVGA related and other stuff.
The box for the BeQuiet Silent Wing 3's was ripped apart but all 5 fans never used. Yeah is mostly for modern stuff but could not resist due to the USB bracket and Asus SLI bridges even if I never use them.....

Left.. the ones produced for the mirror Earth on the other side of the Sun are 440R 😉

Bom dia consertei um desktop mother board ATC 1000 Pentium-s 100MHz mas não tenho mouse nem teclado, existe meio de adaptár duás saídas USB?

Thanks. Not sure how much use it will be unless I can get a copy of the SDK for the ECHO based cards if they even still have it.

Must be something like this or left-handed only.
I tend more to see it coming from taxonomy. Then it might be Lizard.

Got a Pentium MMX 166 and a NOS Verbatim 3-button serial mouse today.

Very happy that I was able to source these locally as both are getting increasingly uncommon in my neck of the woods, and importing from abroad would incur a hefty shipping + customs fee.

The serial mouse will mainly be used for testing purposes, but it can also serve as a backup option in case the PS2 bracket rewiring on my M571 motherboard fails. And the MMX 166 will serve as the heart of my dedicated DOS 6.22 + Win 3.11 build.
