Been a while since I check up on you guys. Been busy with my own collection recently, got a couple new cards to share soon.
Buuuut... while browsing google images I stumbled across this
thread & found the guy who ended up with the 1 and only
Sapphire Radeon 9800 Maxx in existance.
He also owns a functional
SiS XGI Volari Duo V8 Ultra 256MB as well which I thought was perfect to add to the list here. These cards are very rarely talked about. And are truely one of the last real challangers to the ATI/Nvidia duo back in the early 2k's. This thing looks about on par with a 9500 Pro from looking at the reviews listed below.
I also know there is XGI Volari V5 128mb single chip version as well, but I couldn't find any decent enough photos of one worth sharing.

I couldn't find a upclose of the die's. But this was the best high res image of the card I could find. Suitable for here I hope.
