 The 3D module was planned to have a Voodoo Graphics (( [[wp>3dfx_Interactive#Voodoo_Graphics_PCI]] )) chipset just like the Macintosh version the 3D Overdrive  and 8MB of memory (( 4MB frame buffer/ 4MB texture and 3D data )). It 'just' would have needed a pcb relayout to make the module fit the local PCI connector of the Picasso IV. The 3D module was planned to have a Voodoo Graphics (( [[wp>3dfx_Interactive#Voodoo_Graphics_PCI]] )) chipset just like the Macintosh version the 3D Overdrive  and 8MB of memory (( 4MB frame buffer/ 4MB texture and 3D data )).

 |4 |Final one. In fact, it's a revision bump for clear identification from the last Rev 3 which was finally working according to specs and had no bugs found. As of the latest production run this was the factory standard. Due to internal changes, it requires FlashROM 7.1 or above (the boards come with 7.x) it definately drives you into problems, when running ( or trying to) a Rev 4 bridge with a FlashROM below 7.x. If it gets up at all with a Flash below 7.x, it may report a Rev 2 for the bridge because of internal reassignments... .| |4 |Final one.
