Title: Difference between X-24 and 200SB Post by fish on 16.09.04 at 08:48:02
I was checking my my two X-24 cards, when I realized that they aren't exactly the same.
One of it has some more connectors that the other hasn't. Beside the second voodoo module are two more connectors, I guess it's for a VGA module. Right beside the pins above the bios are two more pin rows. And finally behind the VGA output are to more interfaces. So, is one of it a 200SB? Where are the differences between both cards? |

The X-24 and SB200 are identical except for the extra pins.

Yep, and the one equipped with the Pins = SB200

@Fish digs in his pile of 3Dfx cards...discovers an SB200! :o
It's 3Dfx archaeology! ;D LOL! ;D |

Same thing happened to me- Falconfly I think mentioned that they were the same PCB and I took a look at mine and low and behold there it was. |

So why such a "difference" between the two models then? e.g model no. SB200 and X-24 = worlds apart! or so you would think!? :-/
What are the actual differences between the two? |

Hm, isn't it the SB200i that allows linking up for a Mercury System ?
AFAIK, the SB200 can take a 2D VGA Module onto these Connectors to make it an independent, stand-alone Card (never seen one of those, however). |

Did this work ?
And what advantages did this allow (Resolution, performance, Antialiasing) ? |

Hmm...we might be on to something here! :o
Maybe? ::) :P |

And I sold one of the SB200 cause I thought it was a X-24 :'(

fish, is it the one that you want to sell me? or did you have more than one... ;)

No, that's not the one. That's about one year ago.
P.s. @Torch - check your pm on VA. |
