TL;DR : help me put a name on that thing 
Hi,
I picked up a Mac IIx around 2000 when I started collecting vintage Macs.
It came with a 50 MHz '030 Daystar accelerator board directly plugged into the CPU socket, with a cache daughterboard on top.
This IIx worked at the time, but I didn't fiddle much with it. It was quickly shelved for a very long time.
The machine nowadays won't start, which isn't surprising as I haven't replaced the capacitors yet.
However, in a burst of curiosity, I'd like to identify this accelerator board.
Here are the pictures :
