Dark Unicorn - Quantum3D AAlchemy 8264SB Vintage Gaming Build 3dfx RARE

AAlchemy 8264SB case
Dual 933 mhz p3 processors
Tyan 2500 thunder motherboard
Nvidia vanta 16 mb
AA5 8164 8 chip gpu

Here is some info I do know; the AA5 card aka AALchemy 8164 has 8x 3dfx VSA-100 Rasterizers each with 64MB 5.4ns Toshiba SDRAM, both cores & Ram run @ 183Mhz, all that in 8-Way SLI!
Now because it is the 8264 setup what this number means is the following :)

8264 Means:
8 Chips per card - 2 Cycles per clock 64 MB per chip.

What's even crazier? One can add a second 8264 to create an 8464 setup rofl Emoji 16 Way SLI anyone? Emoji:D
And how did Quantum3D make these cards?

Simply put Quantum3D bought 3dfx Gigapixel Technology, which they used to make the 3dfx Voodoo5 6000 Quantum3D and named this the Quantum3D Aalchemy 4132: 4 Chips - 1 Cycle Per Clock - 32MB per chip.
