Title: Can a Piccolo SD64 Scratch a 33 Year Itch? Will it fulfil My Amiga Dreams

Can a Piccolo SD64 Scratch a 33 Year Itch? Will it fulfil My Amiga Dreams (https://youtu.be/bqqmQgWlQX0)
33 years ago I had a dream: a 24-bit graphics card for my Amiga 1500, the key to taking my 3D graphics to the next level! There was just one tiny problem… a £3,000 price tag. Fast-forward 33 years and against all odds, a Piccolo SD64 has fallen into my hands — but there’s a catch. It’s untested, it’s ancient, and it may already be dead.  Will it power⚡up? Will it let me live that long-denied Amiga dream? Or will this be the moment when nostalgia goes up in a puff of magic smoke?

I see the card is in good working condition and just needs a correctly wired cable for the VGA passthrough.
