Anyone wanna pony up 18k for a rare card? 😊
https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?ft=t&spm=a21 … id=561024817638
More like 1260 in US dollar
That sale has been for well over a year now I don't any going to buy at that high price as I'm it has no working drivers or just protype
I wonder if the regular AWE64 drivers would work for it?
The only real difference is that the AWE64 Gold II was going to support a 4-speaker setup. The add-on card allowed for some more stuff but I think it would have all pretty much been transparent to the underlying system.. maybe.
It possible that regular AWE64 drivers may work
I think it was only going to be support a 2-speaker setup out the box on main board and look like did have DBL the RAM expansion from 4 to 8MB but with Hardware Dolby Digital decoder that what the CMS2 was for supporting speaker up to 5.1 as I'm not aware of there any other daughter board made for it
As far I can tell there doesn't seem to be any extra pin for 2 more speaker
3 pin = DAC out
4 pin = TAD
9 pin = MB RRO
2 pin = MB Spk
2 more 2 pin Jumper
2 pin = MFBEN Jumper
19 pin = DIG Link
10 pin = AC link
there some other across top those are most likely usually TAD, CD IN, AUX IN and CD_SPDIF IN
