"Macintosh IIFX CPU" Audio demo disk from 1995

@LabRatKnatz @RetroV2024 Definitely replacing caps, already done some but the ground layer is strong in this one

@RetroV2024 @ThisOldTech2 Nice find. Poor thing (in OP's pics) needs recapping, though. Likely, well-worth the effort; even to resell.

Any Nvidia SLI or EVGA fans ever seen this board before?

@RetroV2024 Probably worth the effort for a recap of the bulged ones then eh? I've got some done already.

@ThisOldTech2 this is apparently also a extreme overclocking high FSB capable

Thought this was some kinda Permedia, but this Elsa Gloria II Pro is a Quadro based on the Geforce 256!

@willreil if you want to build something for me, PM... I have a simple circuit that would be lovely to have made (and others would order it too)

Windows 3.11... but for android?! (Dusts off trumpet winsock)

@Cuddles3312 I was wondering the same, but given the "replace the whole chipset & ram" approach, I bet it would be hardly have any bottleneck compared to other boards with the same chip/ram/cpu... if I come across a CPU module though, I'll ping you.

@ThisOldTech2 Most likely unattainable these days but would be neat to compare it to an AM2 native board to see if it was even worth it back in the day

It almost looks like two AGP slots!

@Cuddles3312 I bet they didn't sell too many of them... it's a neat option, but the system would have been descently fast for the time as-is

@ThisOldTech2 I have one of these boards and have been looking for the CPU add on card for a while now

@RetroTechChris I've got a few things stashed away...

@RetroTechChris No, not me... uh uhhh

Have any of my fellow retro collector friends looked around their houses and said "you know, I think I might have overdone it". Well, I think I might have overdone it 😅. This is "some" of that. I need to think on this a bit!

Well, DFI... that's a wild boot screen!

@Video_Grabz Huh, guess this old thinkpad missed its chance LOL

Amazon Drive (formerly Amazon Cloud Drive) was a secure, consumer-focused cloud storage service for photos, videos, and files that officially shut down on December 31, 2023. It provided 5 GB of free storage, allowing users to upload and organize files across devices. The service has been replaced by Amazon Photos for image/video storage.

Hard to believe all this is retro... is there still Amazon Cloud Drive?

@OnyxCrack Well, I recapped this one and it's currently behaving

@ThisOldTech2 electrolytic's are so close to the hottest part of the board.. I wonder why they all failed 🤔

Beware of the Dragon Ultra... 😈
