Nonetheless you see these cards not often, in fact I never saw one on ebay.

Yes the Rush looks exactly the same as the Viewtop Rush except for the sticker with the logo.
I'm guessing the Banshee also is a copy design from Britek or another.

It looks a bit like the Diamond banshee SGRAM, but it has a lot more chips onboard, other then ram that is. And it is the 1st Banshee I've seen with an AAVID fan, but that could come from another card, I dunno.

Eye-Q God Member Offline Posts: 522 Germany Gender:	Re: A-Corp Voodoo Banshee Reply #10 - 19.08.09 at 19:56:26 That's funny - the card itself is a Sparkle card (the "SP3800" on the front side reveals that) and has a "Vulcan B" stamped in on the back side which is a name of a Britek Viewtop card. The Sparkle cards aren't dime a dozen nowadays but they're not as rare as an MSI MS4427.

I also found an all-in-one card, has vga, tv, lan and video in/out. Windows detects it as hasing the same tv chip as Voodoo TV card, and it also has a HiNT chip onboard, strange looking card. Will post pics tommorrow, is from A5 Corp??

Good luck

The yellow sticker on the back says warrantyseal (garantiezegel).
