3dfx "Daytona" VSA101; Is there such a thing?

[Grall]

Sounds like an attempt at fraud to me but I could be wrong.

Never heard of this chip before. Look for yourselves: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2732718548&category=40157

Edit: Never mind. It was a TNT2.

AFAIK, Daytona was a 64-bit DDR VSA-100
It's really jsut a cost cutting chip, since 64-bit DDR was cheaper than 128-bit SDR.
Still, I suppose very few were produced, so if it's for real, might be a collectible. I did say might

VSA-101 aka Daytona does exist and a few cards with it have been sold, but of course this offer could still be fake.

Found 2 pics of the Daytona here:

Apparently a 128-bit DDR version does exist though, which would have the interesting performance of about halfway between Voodoo4 and Voodoo5 (Voodoo4's fill rate + V5's bandwidth)

If I am not mistaken, these are the first 0.18 cards that 3dfx was to produce. Beside trying to grab some low end / OEM wins, this card was meant to help 3dfx move smoothly to 0.18 for Rampage production.

.18 micron, ddr, 64 bit memory, wouldve made 64 megs per vsa. it was also known as vsa101, vsa102, vsa200. wouldve been clocked at 200mhz.

tag, where did u hear there was a 128 bit version?
