Title: Unknown Voodoo II; help to identify (pics)
Post by NitroX infinity on 30.07.08 at 13:55:14
I bought a Voodoo 2 from eBay, all the way from Australia, but cannot identify it.

So here are some pictures, all thumbnails ofcourse (click for larger):

The cd-rom is a generic driver-cd with drivers for all sorts of vga cards (s3, nvidia, etc). The manual is from a Canopus Pure3D II so no help there either. The card itself is one of those cards mass-produced for resellers. The box is really the only thing that can possibly identify the company that sold this card.

So, any guesses?

I think it's a Powercolor, I have all four types of them, with all chip logo combinations.

It's not the card itself of which I want to know the brand.
I want to know to which company this box belongs to.

'ST' seems to be the most obvious but what does it stand for?

ST Microelectronics probably.
They made the Kyro I and II Chips!

I seriously doubt that. Why would they sell a product from the competition?

It was just a vague guess... I dunno!

Generic Republic of China board maker I'd say.

Guess I'm not being clear :P

It's not about the card itself, it's about the box; which company does it belong to.
