| Macintosh IIfx with Thunder IV GX 1360 inside! | |
| Posted by: ktkm on 2020-02-02 06:32:23 I scored four NuBus cards in an IIfx, and one of them was the Thunder IV GX 1360! The IIfx was sold as untested, and still, it works like a charm, even with the original 160 MB Seagate! Thank you @Bolle for helping me out identifying the cards!             | |

| Posted by: IIfx on 2020-02-02 17:44:03 The IIfx is a wonderful machine, hope you will get many years of enjoyment from it! You lucked out as your board is 100% SMD Tantalum. Most IIfx boards have two of those cursed cans in the upper right corner by the PRAM batteries. Nice Radius vidcard with the photobooster. I have a similar card but with a separate Photobooster on its own Nubus card. | |

Yes, the tantalum caps took me by surprise, I’m so used to blown batteries and rotted traces, so this felt genuinely amazing! | |
