So basically my Magic 3D II likely has 8 bad dram chips on it (one of the TMUs or that other chip had 2 shorted legs and after fixing that I'm getting the rainbow dotted texture issue)
Card otherwise runs fine, I tried voodoo demos, Quake 1, Carmageddon 2, Doom Legacy(old versions of it have a glide renderer), interestingly Homeworld 3dfxgl mode has no issues at all although it is definitely running on my voodoo(the gamma change is definite giveaway)...
It would be a shame just to throw it out now but this DRAM it has is rather expensive and hard to source, it quickly becomes cheaper to buy another voodoo 2 than bother fixing this one. What should I do and how do I for sure even confirm which chips dram is broken?
