Weird! ???

It has BOTH 100MHz 'and' 90MHz RAM on the same board! :o

(Am I correct in saying this is NOT normal?) :P

Hmm... ::)

Ugh... (?)

Indeed very odd. There should be an FCC ID number somewhere, otherwise I think impossible to find out who built it.

I can't look behind the card, it's not mine.

I suppose that both 90 and 100 MHz chips on the same Voodoo2 is not very usual, maybe this detail could be the key to identify it.

Anyway, it's not very important, I was looking for a Voodoo2 from a couple of well-known vendors and obviously, this one isn't what I was looking for.

it looks like my couple of Techworks voodoo2 : same color, and no way to tell what the vendor is
but there's a sticker... behind the card ;D

I don't think it has the 90/100mhz mix
but I don't think this mix is interesting
maybe they had to make, say, 12 000 voodoo2 but they had only 96 000 old 90mhz chips left ;D

Anorher one of my Voodoo2's arrived today. Not sure which brand, the PCB board is a bit more "blue" than all the other ones I have. And ALL the memory chips are 110MHz !!! ;D Interesting! ;)

MORE Voodoo 2 weirdness! :o

Could ya' post a picture (or a link to one) so we can have a look at the extra weird memory! ;)

Makes ya' wonder how many 'odd' Voodoo 2 variations are out there? ???

No Problem! :)

However, I'm at work at the moment, and I'm at my girlfriends house tonight! I will put the picture on Thursday/Friday. ;)

I've posted the pics on of the mysterious 110MHz memory Voodoo2.
They're located in the 'FastVoodoo2 4.0 Problems' here:

I am also having trouble with this card, if anyone can help out. :(
