Hi All.

I have a PGX card, and I'm not sure which one it is. It's got a 13w3 connector
on it, is there an easy way (short of connecting it to a machine) of telling
if it's a PGX8 PGX24 or PGX32? It has on it what appears to be 2 RAM chips
with space (empty) for 2 more. Also, would it be possible to use this card in
a PC to run a 20d10 monitor using Sol8x86?
