I thought some if you would find this interesting. I saved it from getting tossed out while helping to clean out a hoarder house. I have no use for it and don’t know what to do with it but though it was to interesting to throw into the garage.

8K for sure.
I’m curious if that lifetime warranty is still valid
once you update drivers :nods:
That is older than sin holy hell.
Plug it in and see what happens.
Yes at least 4k RAM
Send it too LGR (Lazy Game Reviews) he’s a youtuber who loves old tech!
That belongs in a museum!
48k
Earthsiege 2 is like.. 1996?
hellow there fellow Creative speaker user
4000pixels is probably about what it can run smoothly
Holy hell I remember trying to play earthsiege 2 as a kid and had no idea what I was clicking or doing
Wow i havent seen that type of card since the late 90’s
4000 pixels total, no problem. You might have to drop the colours back to 256 though, if you want better performance.
it might actually fetch some value as a collectors item
This is worth money on eBay. Retrocomputing enthusiast like this stuff.
Eventually….
Exactly one pixel in 4k…. Maybe
PCI graphics card…man I feel old
Why would anyone need so much VRAM?
I mean its still sealed and they’re going for 30-150 for just the card used on ebay depending the condition. I didn’t see a sealed box but this is probably like $250 minimum
Yes but you have to turn off your RGB to allow your PSU to maintain enough power.
A 2MB ISA Card with GUI Acceleration? These are worth a lot.
No sink or fan in sight, just accelerating windows, absolutely beautiful, wish we could go back
But can it run Crysis?
This is the kind of stuff you used to be able to buy at places like The Wiz and Circuit City. PC upgrades were available in quite a few places. Also, PC upgrades were coming in fast and furious as well. It seemed every 2 months or so another PC component was coming out with a faster better version. Modems, CD-ROM drives to DVD-ROM, hard drives, video cards to 3D accelerator cards, memory, sound cards, etc.. PC gaming was on such a great trajectory back then.
I bet you could sell it to a collector for a lot of money
Fuck me I’m old. I used to have one of those. Fry’s electronics in Burbank California is where I got it from. Mid 90’s.
Wow, that is taking me back tot the old days 😎👍
That’s a whole 16 bit ISA interface. Of course it does 4K… via the VGA port.
when these types of cards were coming out was truly an exciting time for gaming.
Lol when you had the graphic card and then needed an accelerator, creative banshee 3dfx voodoo 2 rulez
Pfft… you’re ready for 8k bruh.
i know the game that is inside the box (i am that old).
was awesome as a kid
