IBM Video Adapter FRU 43G0681 (RS/6000)

Based on Tiga chips.

I figured with the DSP's and the mini BNC connector that it was some kind of video processing board. You find boards for 030 and 040 Macs loaded up with DSP's, sometimes as many as 8 or more, for audio/video/image processing.

@ Vlask i see, can you tell me any specifications about it?

And do you need any hi res pictures?

Have you tried the TIGA drivers from #9? Maybe they work with this TIGA based card as well.

For RS/6000 mean that this is for workstation ibm computer not based on x86 architecture using RISC cpus and OS AIX, so no chance for running on standart PC - more info at wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS/6000

Better photo you wont find. That posted by you are probably best ones on internet. Thats why im interested so much in collecting profi cards - theres next to none info about them online and no good photos. Those cards makes mine site more unique 😉

I dont need better photo cause i dont own that card, so no reason to show on site, but you can send photo to mca mafia pages - link in mine 1st post - they made contest at some time for making photos of mca cards. Also you can upload photo on wikipedia and add it to mentioned article.
