Hello,

I have a Trust Voodoo 2 and I have scoured the internet trying to find more information about its version.

I can't seem to find another example with the "SP-3600 Ver: A" or a board with the same circuit numbers.

Does anyone know whether this an early revision, proto sample or just a box standard consumer card?

Looks like every other reference card.

Unless I'm mistaken, the main chips were made in 1998 weeks 18 and 22 putting it well after release.
The one ram chip I can read seems to be 98 w31

So it was probably made in late 98 or early 99.

Could be that there were no black PCBs at hand for a period of time, so Trust chose to pack the generic reference card version or any card they got their hands on.

Here is mine.

A rebranded Sparkle??? - https://web.archive.org/web/19990218162920/ht … ucts/sp3600.htm

It looks like this is the case. I could find one eBay listing and even though I can't get a clear picture off it it does look like the card has the same text up front

Thanks for the replies everyone! Now to test if the card works and then listing it to eBay/local market places.
