That is nostalgic, but it's also software...

Well technically it is both if we count it is physical and it also has this in the back of the manual...

Quite a prophetic advertisement piece... Thinking ahead to Fermi!

3dfx Voodoo 4500 Agp L-Profile | eBay

Broken agp connector retainer. Before buying, see all the flaws in the photo. Board tested in quake and 3dmark2001.

www.ebay.com

Ok price prob, as Voodoo 4 are rare as fuck...

Also is really strange to see no Voodoo Rush cards, they are very few..

Rendition Vérité V2200 for some reason cost 50$, i think should be way cheaper....

$250 is quite a lot for that...

 

[Radical Vision]

All the prices are a lot, for everything, but i am talking about ebay prices of someone that know what he is selling...

Have u seen cheaper Voodoo 4 then this ? If i was on his place i was going to find at least the crappy metal braket, and then ask that price or something...


Well that was a steal that price for V4, seems they guy did not know what he was selling...

I think that has been misidentified. IIRC they never made a 4500 in that form-factor. A 4200 maybe. But it looks more like 3000 to me.

and i would not Describe it as low profile either

Back then it was as low-profile as it got.

It is Voodoo 4 for sure, look the AGP slot it have both AGP 3v and AGP 1.5v, universal card, only Voodoo 4 have AGP univerasl slots..

Do you have a use in mind or just buying for collection?

Good point. That was a bargin-bin card at the very least. If it really is a 4500 it was a very limited run, likely to burn off inventory.

Speaking of VooDoo cards, this is a thing;

Got a Fermi and they abandonned it for the newer chip that they used on same cards. I.E. my GT630 got a Fermi chip that stopped being supported and the other chip that still get support even if it's also a GT630.

BTW if I swap my old 775 to another case and change PSU do I post it in here or Log project thread ?

Why not both??

 

[E-Bear]

Because i will end up with a moderator complaining that I double posted.

Most of the stuff i buy is for collection, i dont use them, wont spend so much money for Voodoo 4, while when i get lucky i get lot of stuff for pocket change...

I am all about saving and preserving the computers and parts, from idiots and people that dont care, and will trow them in the garbage or to the scrap.
Also if i did have enough space i prob. was going to use many of the parts build into machines, but for the moment, every time i need even to test something i need to get all the stuff out of boxes, and is annoying... Other wise i use them, but cant, as the space is very limited... Want to make my Compaq Deskpro 486 into DOS gaming station, also is eISA machine so is more interesting too.

No complaints from me Besides, you're under to different sections/threads, I don't think it would be a problem??

abit board scheme looks like intel board, sometimes you miss the color

 

[cornemuse]

Anybody have an old(!) ECS NFORCE 6M-A2 mobo they would part with? I bought two brand new many years ago, few years back I bought one used off ebay. 2 of the 3 have since died. This board is Perfect for my particular use. XP-64 (yea yea,dont laff) ALWAYS off-line. Used to be quite a few listed but no more. I thought 3 would last me to death (I'm 73) but I seem to be outliving them.

Found out what burned on that XFX nForce LGA775 mobo.
