Maxi Gamer TMU's and FBI's

I have 2 Maxi Gamer 3D's here, both with different TMU's and FBI's. The memory is also different for the two.  One model is labelled '9748', and the other being '9809'.  I am guessing the former being the oldest card.

Maxi Gamer 3D #9748
F801261.1  TMU
9745 20005

BF16891.1  FBI
9746 20001

Memory:  ALLIANCE

Maxi Gamer 3D #9809
F804941.1  TMU
9802 20005

f00428.1  FBI
9811 20005

Memory:  tm

I know there is no performance difference between the two, but which would you have personally?

Would the ALLIANCE memory laced card be a better choice, as it's older than the later model?

Allo M8! Grin

I know - long time no post (I've been AWOL modding consoles...) 8)

Hmm...tricky - if there's no performance diffecence, then you're prolly correct. Tongue

Of course, if both card have no compatibility difference either - then it dun' really matter! Roll Eyes

Alright Paul mate!  Grin Yeah, busy busy and all that with uni! What with my dissertation and everything!

Just wanted to know which was the best to keep really.  I think may get the older card with the Alliance memory chips as I guess Alliance are just more of a well known brand. And as its a (slightly) older card ('97 model) theres more 3D nostalgia there!  Grin

Cheers mate!
