Obi-Wan_Kenobi Ex Member	Re: New Rampage and 3400-A3 pics per request Reply #3 - 28.07.06 at 11:57:06 well that would be a devistating difference , the Rampy has 128 Bit DDR and it has 4 Pixel Shader Processors per core I think a Voodoo4 4500 comarrison with this Rampage would be destructive LoL if it reaches speeds of a GeForce4 Ti4200 ...

How close was 3DFX to releasing that before the buy out and would that have posiably kept them affloat had they gotten that out to the public (just speculating of course)?

Some PCI Daytona boards had already been sold to IBM before that. 3) The 4500 (Napalm, VSA-100) is a AGP x 4 compliant part.

(hope you have steady hands mate!)

Very actually, I have completed a number of repairs to non-functioning boards.

One of my other hobbies/jobs was removing of EPROMS from Chrysler turbo computers and reprograming the contents. Lots of practice solidering/de-solidering.

Frankly if the board functions fine in all modes I'm leaving it be, no sense risking disaster for what could be a non-issue.
