Hiya!!
I was gifted 3 486 VLB motherboards 😊 and I've been searching to find which is best to make a vlb machine 😊
I would appreciate any comments/info , especially on the AL486 mobo that I can't find anything conclusive...
#1 is the "mystery" board, the AL486 rev.1.0 with ALI M1429G-A1 + M1431-A2 chipset... I like this the best because of the 72pin simm sockets... I have no idea about cache size atm, the jumpers don't have any silkscreening info at all.
#2 is a Vi11 motherboard , it's exactly this one HERE , it seems it has 256kb cache installed
#3 is the FX-3000 mobo that is actually an ECS US 3486 , seems to be the oldest mobo and because of the single VLB slot TBH
Thanks in advance for any info, the main plan is to built a 486DX2 machine with a VLB I/O controller and a VLB 5428 vga. 😁
