That's correct, my second CT2290 doesn't have the ASP/CSP chip. It otherwise seems to perform the same 😀

Which games in particular did you test your cards on? I want to corroborate your results. Thanks

I have tested it in DOOM and Duke3D. Keep in mind though that I'm using an Athlon XP at 1666 MHz, so that might influence testing by decreasing the CPU load (I understand the "type 2" bug is CPU dependant).

So far been enjoying Doom and Duke Nukem 3D how it sounded on my computer in the mid 90s
