VRAM for Cybervision 64

[JohnFante]

Does anybody know where you can buy ekstra VRAM for a Cybervision 64 card?

More precisely I was wondering if it is "standard" VRAM that you can buy in your local electronics shop.

I must admit that I have so far been to lazy to check it out my self.

Thanks in advance!

I went to a PC junk store and used some chips from an old PC VGA card 4MB, the ones that have 2MB soldered on board and 2MB in sockets. Works great!

Buy an old 4mb s3 virge pci or similar off ebay.. you should be able to pop out half the mem.. They usually have half soldered and half socketed..

Hmmm it feels like Deja Vu.

Thanks!

Did a little searh on ebay. But so far no luck finding cards that have socketed VRAM. All is soldered.

If anybody here has 4x512KB VRAM i would be very interested.

Thanks in advance!

Wrong type but close you want a card that has 2MB onboard with 4 more sockets for 2MB more...
