Sega Model 1 is an arcade system board released by Sega in 1992 as the successor to Sega System 32. Model 1 was the first Sega arcade board designed specifically for 3D graphics. It had a few of the more popular arcade games at the time, such as; Virtua Fighter, Virtua Racing and Star Wars Arcade. However, the Sega Model 2 arcade board was released only one year later and in the end, had a vastly larger library of games. It had an NEC V60 at 16 MHz with 1936KB of RAM. It had a Sega 837-7894 171-6080D VIDEO GPU.
