Damn, I hope you got a good payout. The logo is for a taiwanese foundry called Silicon Integrated Systems; they used to make very cheap chipsets and stuff like that.
Thank you for the memory! The first “retail” card I ever purchased (from a small town computer shop), literally just said AGP Graphics Adapter on the box… and inside was a delightfully generic SiS board, with which I had many fun hours.
How about this one:
Security Industry Specialists?
I worked for them. And also won a CLA against them for not paying my or my coworkers wages.

I had one of these, it was terrible, me and my friends called it The Cyst.
My first “multimedia” computer back in '99 had an integrated SiS VGA card, with an amazing 8MB video RAM.

My super7 mainboard was the best! Upgrade to a k6-2 and I’ve overclocked the bus to 112mhz
