Hi,
I'm having a dilemma choosing the SCSI/NIC card for my VLB 486.
Is there any gain going to VLB instead of ISA ? For example, if I aim stuff like AHA-2842 or AHA-1542 for SCSI?
Won't it bring more troubles to have two/three VLB cards than what i could gain ?
By trouble i mean the inability to reach 50 or 40MHz FSB, that kind of stuff?
The motherboard is a shuttle HOT419 R2, the video card a tseng labs ET4000/w32p 2MB, the CPU an iDX4 WB.
I'd like to run it @ 3x40MHz, so if I must, i'd rather go ISA and loose a bit of bandwidth than having to step back to 33 MHz FSB.
Regards;
