    The VX is older than the TX. AFAIR the order in which the chipsets
    appeared was FX - HX - VX - TX.
    The VX also supports SDRAM so if your Board has an SDIMM-Slot you could
    try that. Don't know about restrictions.
    You probably shouldn't install more than 64MB total because the VX can't
    cache any more.
