Don't tease us like that, spread the cards out so we can see them all. 😁
Genoa EGA card. I had something like that before. Not sure where it is now, unfortunately.

Just grabbed the box because of the super ega card, and always good to have 16 bit io card.
Rest was just random 8 bit serial cards and weird network interface cards.

Of course, the SuperEGA is a nice card, I'd have grabbed it too. I was just wondering what was underneath. 😀
Also, the two cards in the back, on top, are both possibly CGA or MDA\Hercules + Parallel cards, not serial. The one on the left I'm about 95% sure of, the one on the right I am less sure of but it's still a good possibility. If the 9pin connector is female it is most likely a video card, and if it's male it's likely serial.
EDIT: Confirmed, the one on the right is also a CGA + Parallel card. https://www.dosdays.co.uk/topics/retro_review … cga_hgc_pt1.php
(Not 100% identical, but very similar)
So yeah, you got at least three video cards in that lot. 🥳
Lol.
Thanks, I just assumed they were serial cards, and was going to check them better in the weekend.

Nice! Four 1980s video cards in a random box lot is a pretty good deal, and they don't even take up much space. 🙂
