This popped up the other day and I sent a couple offers. Seller finally responded today and accepted. I'm kind of surprised no one nabbed it at the normal price, but I'm guessing the not-very-descriptive title would be to blame there.
Based on my research, it should be a Gainward Tseng ET4000 W32i VLB, likely 2MB.
One of these days I'm going to do finally set up a 486\586 benchmarking machine to test all of my VLB cards. Others have done VLB benchmarks, but there are just so many models and variants that there is inevitably some card I have which is missing from them. I now have an assortment of w32p, w32i, S3 805 and 868, Trio32, WD90C33, ALG2228, CL54(24,26,28 and possibly a 5434, obscured by a sticker), what I think is an ARK1000VL (has a sticker on it) and several Trident cards. I have multiple variants of some of them, so I intend to compare them all and post the results along with pictures so that we can see the range of performance between different implementations of some of the more common cards (mainly CL based).
Now for some blitting from the back buffer.
