The Sapphire version is working with my Mediators, A4000 & A1200.  It's a dual voltage card.

You need to update the Mediator Drivers from the Elbox Website to use the Radeon Ram, there should be readme files and documentation supplied with the drivers.

Well i have an 030 accelerator w/64mb would this be enough to run a decent desktop with a reasonable resolution?

Yeah you can 1680x1050 if you like :pint:

It's really snappy as well, RTG adds so much to the Workbench experience even with an 030.  You might not have much luck with Sound Cards tho, AHI seemed to lockup for me, was fine when I upgraded to an 040.

Network cards are easy to setup and will work well on the 030.

You wouldn't want to run a 3D Game from the Radeon memory as Fast Ram but it's useful as Ram Disk, etc.

Good luck with your project.

radeon has no warp3d support under 68k so you wouldnt want it for 3d gaming anyway. high res 2d, and this includes workbench is not a problem though even with voodoo.

He's using an 030 anyway and the Warp3D driver needs at least an 040 which is why I didn't mention it.

I never found anyone with an 030+FPU+3D to test though.

I tried a modified avenger driver with my old Blizzard 1230 + FPU on my Mediator + Voodoo 3 but the games would not start.
