[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] What manufacturers use the Tseng ET3000 and ET4000?

   The Subject: title is part 1.  What I *really* want to know is what's
the cheapest VGA card on the planet that uses the ET3000 or ET4000 chipset
from Tseng Labs.   Thanks for the info!

I'm interested, too.
First some VGA's with ET3000 & ET4000

Genoa 5300,5400,5100 (ET3000)
Tricom (ET4000) (This is the Tseng VGA broard 8909 !@!!)

If someone is going to buy a VGA, I would recommend one with the ET4000 chip.
This Chip is about 2.5 times faster than the ET3000 for some applications.

I have a VGA board by Puretek that I'm happy with.  It uses the ET4000, an
came with 1MB of memory.  Puretek are located in California, and were very
responsive when I called them about getting the windows 3.0 drivers.  A nice
feature of this board is that it can drive a TTL monitor, if necessary.
Since I was still shopping for a multisync monitor when I got the board it
was nice to be able to use my old CGA monitor while I took my time looking for
a real monitor.  (I ended up with a NEC 4D, with which I'm very happy.)
