Ltning<b>Welcome to my mini ISA VGA shootout!</b><br><i>TL;DR: ISA Matrox cards are really, really slow in DOS.</i><br><br>I recently built an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentium_(original)" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">original Pentium</a> 60MHz system, built on an <a href="https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/ecs-si5pi-aio-rev-1-1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ECS</a> motherboard. Around the same time I received a "mystery" VGA card: A <a href="https://theretroweb.com/expansioncards/s/matrox-mga-ultima-impression" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Matrox MGA Impression</a> ISA card. And since most of my builds are "open builds" and therefore easily accessible, that machine got the pleasure of becoming the test bench for the Matrox.<br><br>As already revealed, the Matrox performs atrociously bad. So bad, in fact, that I had to test a couple other ISA cards to make sure it wasn't a system issue. I used my go-to benchmarking tool <a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=3dbench" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#3DBench</a> from <a href="https://www.philscomputerlab.com/dos-benchmark-pack.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Phil's DOS Benchmark Pack</a>. I really don't want to experience Doom with this card..<br><br>And without further ado, the contestants and their results in this spur-of-the-moment benchmark run:<br>- Baseline: A 32-bit PCI <a href="https://theretroweb.com/chips/3857" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">S3 Virge/DX</a> based card with 4MB RAM: A perfectly workable <b>48.2</b><br>- The low-end <a href="https://theretroweb.com/chips/4088" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trident TVGA9000C</a> with 512KB RAM (this is a real garbage card): A pretty shitty <b>14.2</b><br>- The mid-range <a href="https://theretroweb.com/chips/3900" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Cirrus Logic CL-GD-5422</a> with 1MB RAM (this is a decent card, know for compatibility but not necessarily speed): A barely bearable <b>24.7</b><br>- And finally, the "star" of the show, the Matrox: A whopping <b>10.9</b>!<br><br>I said it was atrocious, didn't I? But hey, I'm gonna use this one with <a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=os2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OS2</a> anyway, so who cares about DOS performance, right? ;)<br><br><a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=benchmarks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Benchmarks</a> <a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=vga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VGA</a> <a href="https://weirdr.net/snac?t=slowvga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SlowVGA</a><br>

Their core competence was taking money for something that was for free and widely shared and improved by all sorts of people before. They invented proprietary software, software licenses and mandatory software bundles with hardware with no option not to pay for it.</p><p>Whatever software decisions were made on top, were mostly really poor decisions IMO.</p>
