I bought an ATI Rage Fury Maxx for a lot of money on eBay. It’s one of the first dual GPUs, based on the Rage 128 chip.
However, back then there was no flow control between the two graphic chips, which means a lot of games horribly stutter if one of them renders a bit faster than the other. There are a few games that work really well with it, and a shit ton of games that don’t.
The card is an absolute novelty, a piece of history and it looks cool. But there is no good reason for putting this in a retro computer, because even a regular Rage 128 will run better.
I don’t regret getting it, but I regret paying too much for it. 🫠
