Did you say "TNT" - suitable for 7500, 7600s? 8500s use "Nitro" boards which differ by having an extra chip (Sixty6) to handle video out topside between PCI and VRAM slots. I can only guess the difference between them may be ROM revision with the one ending in F2 newer than F1. Charlie -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
