The B0 is important
At least itβs a B revision?

Some kind of audio decode chip. With a shitton of decoupling
For comparison

Fuck cancer.
Friends, letβs not forget her: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebecca...
Oh. I kinda wonder what you have to do to a card like this to get this kind of damage. I mean the chip itself got apparently so hot that it produced a bubble in thr epoxy

15.11.2025 17:25 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I personally like it because it can provide 3D audio up to EAX 3 and it still has good DOS compatibility for boards without ISA
