If I were you and had the money I would buy a Mediator and Voodoo. Even a "lowly" Voodoo 3 3000 is more powerfull than the cybervision as it includes more option of Hardware acceleration than the Cybervision.

Also the Mediator has drivers for variuos great PCI soundcards, 10 and 100mbit ethernet cards and Even TV cards (which you can plug your 4000's composite output into and play classic games in a window on Workbench!!)


FYI: The A4000 has no Composite output, never did.
It can be added, ofcourse, by installing a board in the video slot (like the Electronic Design Video Converter board, that provides S-video and Composite out), but the Mediator4000Di doesn't have any video slot.....

Yes, BUT

Where in HEAVEN can one get his hands on Voodoos (3, 4, 5?) now ? I'm looking everywhere, and all I get are stupid PC gamers auctions "this is THE board, blah blah" at ridiculous prices !? I mean, the POINT of the PCI addons was to made cheap HWare available ! I understand that this stupid Moore trend is not Elbox's or Lucifer's fault, I'm just frustrated.


Uhm, 30 EUR from vesalia or kdh, perhaps?
or usually pretty cheap on ebay.de
