Have PPC in A1200. Now add Mediator or G-Rex ??

[Effy]

 Mediator 1200 SX at Vesalia

is a Mediator for A1200 and costs 278 euro.

 G-Rex 1200 at KDH Datentechnik

costs only 99 euro. What's the difference ?? Anybody can tell me the pro's and the con's ??  :-?

How come ?? If you add a Voodoo and a SB128 and a supported network card, then what is the problem for a G-Rex ??

Sorry, my message was made a few hours ago but I forgot to save it and now I just saw your reactions. I must thank you guys for such a detailed info. It really does seem to be very difference from the Mediator.  Guess I have to think it over and rob an old lady to get me cash for a Mediator or so ... or maybe it's safer to work a few days in the week-end too ?! :-D

It  seems that I am a little bit convinced about not buying a G-Rex and save money to buy a Mediator. I looked on Ebay last evening, but there was no one for sale 2nd hand ... oh well, I can wait a bit longer I guess ...
But most important of all, a really big thank you to you guys for all this great help !!  :-)

Lemkee : thanks for the advice to search on Amibench. Never done that before, always sticked to Ebay. As far as testing my computers by replacing the turboboards, still haven't had time. Restarted to work this week after 3 weeks holidays and I'm doing the night shift ....
