Anybody know where I can get a Radeon 256Mb gfx card where all memory is in 1 bank?

Some/many Radeon 256MB PCI gfx cards have the RAM split into 2 separate banks.  P96 can't deal with 2 separate banks of memory.  So you only get 1 bank (128MB) for your gfx card.  The other bank can only be used as slowram main memory.

I would like to purchase a 256MB PCI Radeon with all memory in 1 bank so I can use it all for gfx operations.

Also I have one of the original 1990s Mediators.  Is that going to ruin everything for me?  Do I hafta buy a new mediator?
