Actually....yeah, 9600 most definitely won't work, since it was meant for at least AGP 4x, hence different signalling levels. Shucks, I've already ordered it 😒 Will have to find an alternative

Yeah, it won't even physically fit in the slot (duh). I guess we really need a Google sheet with compatible cards for the Llama 😀

I doubt the 9600pro will work, I tried a Connect 3d 9550 Universal AGP and it didn't work. Highest I've been able to run is R200/RV280

Technically, R300-based cards like Radeon 9500, Radeon 9600 TX, and Radeon 9700 series should work as well, since they have 3V3 support, but I'm not willing to spend money just to find out...Would be lovely if someone would test that.

Can anyone tell me if this emulates an old school chipset from the mid 90's? Some programs expect a familiar chipset, like 440BX or such.

Programs like what? Please provide a list of examples so I can test them for you! 😀

QEMM386, 386Max or UMBPCI. Heck, even Memmaker! What does the <1Mb memory look like?

I have yet to find a reason to use any of those.

You have yet to have a reason to put any device drivers in high memory to get above 600K or so?

In my case, there is already 604K of free conventional memory.

I think you missed the point. Programs like QEMM386 are the acid test for DOS compatibility. Was curious.

Just stumbled upon this project and i love it.
I tried to preorder on retrodreams.ca but there seems to be no way.
I guess the preorder phase is over? Is there a way to still get one?

Hi there, we had to stop receiving preorders because we wanted to submit the big factory order.

That being said, there is a potential for batch3, you can either subscribe to our newsletter and/or join our Discord so I can add you to the waitlist! 😀
