Hi
I'm looking for a SBUS cg3 card, the later models which
were 501-1718 or 501-1909. I have a new monitor which will
only sync to 1152x900x76 not 1152x900x66 the card I have
(of course). Its for a sparcstation 1+.
For some reason the cg3 is the only card I could ever get
working with the sparcstation 1+. Later TGX cards, etc
wouldnt work.
Anyone have a spare? I'm in the UK, but for something this
size shouldnt be too much to post.
Thanks
Ian.

Yes. TGX and SS1+ are incompatible. (I dim remember they can be made
compatible by installing the newest OBP ROM.) Any CG6 should work as
well as GX (without T) as the GX is a souped up GC6.

I'm pretty sure there isn't. A TGX (TurboGX) is a souped-up GX.
(faster, more memory for higher resolutions, etc)
I have a metric buttload of GX (not TGX) cards here if anyone
needs them.

AFAIK the difference GX vs. CG6 is only in the implementation
and
naming. (Like dual and single slot CG6.)

New subject: Tricord Servers????
Hi,
Anyone out there collect Tricord Servers? I used to install and
work on these back around 95', did work on a couple of ES7000 and ES8000
systems at Newsday and Scherring-Plough. I was just remembering them
today, and figured I'd see if anyone had any of them. They are fairly
big sized units, about 3-4' tall, 19" wide styled cabinet, their
motherboards were rather unique and in a sense, weird too, like how the
card cage was accessed via the back and underneath the mainboard and such...
Let me know if anyone collects these, thanks.
