   @Gammitin My worst VGA card is my best VGA card in some sense. This trashy PCI S3 Trio 64V2/DX 2MB, that we swapped out as "broken" from a customer's machine at my first $dayjob in 1998-ish.

   But I picked it from the e-waste pile, plugged mismatching RAM chips onto it from other cards in the pile, and since then, it's been my no.1. test PCI VGA card, also has been a daily driver and beater for a while. It's scratched up, dirty, smells like beer... (Long story... 😅)

   Still works every time.
