I had one, then I managed to sell it for 1500$. I bought it for 900$.

These are the crap cards they died in hours in many cases. This was the first style made.

The 2nd one they switched to a HiNT voltage chip rather than the faulty intel one, and it worked much better.

The final one (called rev 3700) looked fairly similar, and I'm not exactly sure what was different about it.

The card hes selling is a 2nd or 3rd generation v56k, not a orignal as he states. (I would prefer the 2nd or 3rd gen though because they dont die so quickly

)

Oh, and about performance? My GF4 disapointed me when I switched to it, it was only slightly faster than the voodoo 5 6000, but I did have alot more features.

Its a third revision, he states it at the bottom of the page.

***Veridian3*** · Nov 27, 2003, 02:08 PM

I have a Voodoo 5 5500 PCI...just arrived today to play with

cant wait.

blown503 · Nov 27, 2003, 04:50 PM

wasnt this the power supply for the fans because they caused the agp slot to die? the final card had a draw of 85 watts. The one in this pic is the Revision 2 2600. The connector on the Final Revision 3700 was of a round type instead of one that looked like an S video hookup.

tek · Nov 27, 2003, 05:08 PM

That thing looks tough, I wouldn't mind experimenting with one of them

About the "you just buy a pic" When you get not what you buy, ebay sue's the seller

but to register with ebay you need valid bank account details backed up with valid credit card details for your address in case of fraudulent sales.

especially with prices like that one states,if that happened you would be sued as quoted by saint_k.

if it were as easy as that wouldn't we all do the same thing.

Sometimes it's hard as hell for me to believe you. No offense.

tastyweat · Nov 27, 2003, 11:38 PM

wasn't this the first card that could add motion blur to anything on-the-fly? I would love to mess around with one of these cards - but no way can I afford that much for one!

~~craig588~~ · Nov 29, 2003, 01:11 AM

my dad loaned me the money, I promised him I would be able to sell it for more than I bought it for. Driveeuro If your own parents cant trust you enough to give you a loan, thats really bad.

No need to burn dude. it's not an issue of trust with my parents. They grew up the hard way and their parents didn't give them loans for things like video cards

My parents would loan me for a car or something NECESSARY. My dad is making well into six figures on his own. But he isn't making life a breeze for me.

Judas · Nov 29, 2003, 06:19 AM

.....you both are lucky..... i don't get loans...... at all....let alone anything......
