I've gone an older one than that

Sandok · Oct 17, 2005, 11:10 PM

Well Neon, I won't go buy it so you can tell and I know I can't win this...

Good luck folks!

daedal · Oct 17, 2005, 11:14 PM

Oldest I have is a 9000. Wish I had kept my older ones. =/

SFOSOK · Oct 17, 2005, 11:17 PM

Man o man, if I would have kept my old ass ATI one I had sooooo long ago. I don't know if it was released it was so freakin old.

GL to you guys though, if I had that card I would give it to my bro, no reason for it in my build : )

Ferret_Style · Oct 17, 2005, 11:22 PM

I have a few old PCI cards

lol doubt i have the oldest but a few rage pros pci's

farkas · Oct 17, 2005, 11:24 PM

I'm currently looking thru my stuff. I still have my 286 and 386 somewhere. Mach 8 and even before that. Think there was a EGA or something around in those PC's. Hopefully, it will be a 8 bit video card with 256k vram or less lol.

I gather a couple of people will post 16 bit ISA and some funky vesa local bus cards !

Anyways, I 'll keep you guys posted.

PS : Hey wait a sec, I think I might be holding on to a ATI VGA plus or Paradise or something to that effect. Man this stuff is really old !!! 5 1/4 driver disks ????

Hope it posts this damm card, cause I'll be really pissed if it's dead !

WarAnakin · Oct 17, 2005, 11:27 PM

LOL ! I have a VERY, VERY old vide card from ATI .

wiskerbizkit · Oct 17, 2005, 11:34 PM

entered my good old Mach 64

GaVazzZ · Oct 18, 2005, 12:01 AM

Thought I had my old computer in the storage bus out back, but looks like I tore it down for parts and probably gave the parts away...anyhow, I have an old Rage Fury...but I am sure someone has an older one than that!

Good Luck and BTW, how long will this last?

Someone sent me a picture of an X800, he is hopeful !

ROFL!!! an X800

OMG!!

Mach 8 , or areyou you talking EGA or VGA wonder?
I can't seem to find the name for thier 1st one

I se it as kinda pointless becouse anyone could find and obtain
but other will to wich makes it just a "drawing" becouse people will
be able to find them if they look hard enough. For example ebay!
30days is plenty time to aqure one....

Good luck folks!

mach 64, and mach 32 we are talking around 1992!!!, thier 1st solution came
in 1985 , but I don't know what its a called

Want to know what bites? A bout a year ago, I had sytems that where
like 1990 POSes that a company was scraping and I took some parts out
of them and tossed the rest. I'm pretty sure there was an accent ATI
soultion in one of them. As well as alot of my old PCI and ISA card I
sold off or tossed. Not to mention the big bins of them at compter shows,
some repair shops have such things around.

But geeze If you can use it why would you save it? I mean unles
it's the 1st.For example I still have a radeon 64 MB vivo. It still works
and runs alot of stuff.

cheese_thief · Oct 18, 2005, 12:26 AM

Rage Peo AGP 2x here.

Served me well back in the day. Jedi Knight was a blast to play on it...

deekey777 · Oct 18, 2005, 12:30 AM

I'm not sure, but I think, there is a Mach64 in my cellar.

my "gem" (which i didnt buy on ebay :P) is going back on the shelf to get lost somewhere again lol

i actually had to use it in my P4 not long back cos it was either that or a Voodoo 1 card, and that needed a graphics card anyway lol

tastyweat · Oct 18, 2005, 12:41 AM

I have a few OLD radeon cards... but i have no idea what they are lol... gonna have to find out tomorrow.

Beng · Oct 18, 2005, 12:51 AM

hahaha buy it now for 19.95!

This is their very first card, that and the EGA wonder+ I beleive only the EGA Wonder is older because this is the same card just made then for the "new" vga standard

SeraphicSorcerer · Oct 18, 2005, 01:18 AM

tornadog · Oct 18, 2005, 01:45 AM

OMG, guys must be really crazy buying those cards from Ebay. BTW the VGA Wonder+ came out in 1988, 3 years after ATI's first graphic board. So there is still older cards than that one.

*sireric* · Oct 18, 2005, 01:46 AM

I think I have an old VGA Wonder (circa 1988) somewhere, which I remember buying when I worked at Matrox... :-)
