It must be extremely satisfying to be involved in such a project!

Kinda yes and kinda no, the industry for power supplies like that is small and intensely competitive, so the company tends to underbid its projects and count on the engineering team to pull a rabbit out of the hat. 😤

I just ordered one of these capture devices, so hopefully at last I'll be able to release proper video footage from the Tezro, and therefore hopefully properly demonstrate IRIX and the various software packages I have installed on the machine!

If it works successfully, I'll release a whole range of high quality videos showing off all of the software I have installed on the machine, which is basically everything except Catia!

It should be able to capture both video @1920x1080 and sound from the machine! (separate video and audio inputs)

I just purchased this little monster for my AlphaStation (DEC Compaq HP PowerStrom 350 Graphic Card 54-25561-02 PBXGD-AE 3X-PBXGD-AE)!

It apparently has a much higher pixel fill rate than that of the 4D60T, which should allow it to achieve much better performance in Quake II

That's a cool looking card @Irinikus - I wonder what chipset it uses, proprietary? Please upload a video of it running Quake when you test it and perhaps show the GL extensions support in the console Smile

RE: Latest purchase?
I picked up some major upgrades for some of my vehicles. I currently own three vehicles basically including my Subaru. One of them is only mine and name but I have poured a lot of money into it because I might eventually buy it.

Besides that I purchased some new drones for local flying footage, and I'm starting to get into professional photography again as a hobby so I've been taking a lot of photos on my urbex trips and while I'm out in nature.

I'm the system admin of this site. Private security technician, licensed locksmith, hack of a c developer and vintage computer enthusiast. 

https://contrib.irixnet.org/raion/ -- contributions and pieces that I'm working on currently. 

https://codeberg.org/SolusRaion -- Code repos I control

Technical problems should be sent my way.
