Best NLX Matrox?
Hello group,
What was the best NLX form-factor card that Matrox made? I'm about to purchase a 16mb G400 but I see references to a 32mb model (not dual-head, but NLX like I need). Makes sense since the solder points are there for the additional RAM chips on the 16mb models. If there really was a 32mb NLX model, might anyone have one for sale who can take PayPal for payment? I need it kind of quickly... Thanks! -Alexander |

But I think that any of the single-head G400 models will actually fit in NLX boards, because the space on the card for the extra output expansion is the same size as the indentation required to fit NLX boards. You would just need the NLX bracket, but you could take one from almost any NLX video card since they all have the connector in the same place. On the other hand, since there is no difference between the 16 and 32mb models except fo the memory, you might just as well go for the 16mb unless you plan on using modes that require more memory, since those are widely available. As for the G450 and newer Matrox cards, they all are either full-size, or 'low-profile' cards which explicitly will not fit NLX systems. -- Not to have been a dupe, that will have been my best possesion, my best deed, to have been a dupe, wishing I wasn't, thinking I wasn't, knowing I was, not being a dupe of not being a dupe. --Samuel Beckett, The Unnamable |
