strange voodoo4 4500 agp

i find a stb v4 4500 agp as normal one with 32m memory on board.

but there is one memory make me puzzled.

three memories are samsung tc-60 and the left is samsung tc-54...why it is ? is it a repaired one or it is normal from factroy?

it is very strange to find a different speed memory on one card though we can see some same memories with different weekly time..

should i catch it??? ???

I have some cards with different RAM-speeds but usually they don't have 3 modules of one speed and one of another but 2 and 2 or 2 and 4 (I have a Voodoo 2 with sixteen 83-MHz-modules and eight 100-MHz-modules).

If you look out for such special cards it's nice to have one with such a combination but as the speed is determined by the slowest module (6 ns = 166 MHz) it's not special in terms of speed.

You can put an extreme cooling on it (like a vapochill) and make a vmod by the way, i have a vapochill at home, and i would try it out... on a voodoo 3 and so on, but i dunno how no fit it on a gpu it has only a mounting kit for socket A processors...
