Compatibility, service & archival notes
Memory type and clocks describe named 512 MB PCIe XTX reference configuration, not all X1950 cards.
Inspect cooler and power input; preserve any CrossFire bridge/adapters. Record device ID and Catalyst legacy driver; test both DVI outputs.
- Check signaling, slot keying, lane width, power pinout, board length, case clearance, airflow, and PSU requirements for the exact item.
- Use drivers for the device ID and target OS; preserve installer/firmware copies and record their source before updates.
- Do not power hardware with corrosion, cracks, damaged connectors, obstructed cooling, or suspected shorts; document condition before bench testing.
