hahahaha he might not even be able to sell it

Whatwhatwhat?!?!?!
Are you nuts? EVERYONE would give their left nut to own anything by 3dfx, the greatest video company ever! The guy that get this will spend countless happy hours looking at those cards, and daydreaming about "what might have been" had the 6K come out! Then he can....errr, look at them some more....and....and....maybe look at them again....yep, it would be pretty cool to have those worthless, antique video cards to look at.

Me, I collect Sony Betamaxs. You can say "VHS is better" all you want, but BETA was where it was AT baby!

 
yeap, but I believe it should get at least 1 bid for 500 bucks...
not to mention getting the flag..

what about that guy...who didnt pay to get the picture supersize??
how did he even post his item without paying??

pfft whatever. i don't give a shat about anything except what's in my rig right now.

 
I'm surprised it's not at $6000. I mean, c'mon, there's a working V5 6K in there, the greatest video card of all time with loads of advanced features like ......errrr....Oh yeah, this was 3dfx's first gen of 32 bit color, even though other companies had it for years....and...errr....FSAA! .....mmmm....errr...did I say FSAA?
 
I dont really understand why people would pay so much for a bunch of old video cards? Although people usually do pay a pretty penny for antiques. 🙂
 
coz these cards are not manufactured anymore

not only video cards
there are people who collect old intel processors..
and pay a hefty sum for it too..


anyway, price is picking up , currently at $660.00 now

Really? I have a SWEET P166 that I can sell to some lucky collector! I'll give you a 10% cut if you hook me up! 😉
 
"Im talking as old as 4004 , 8008 and 8088 "
Damn. I knew I shouldn't have sold the IBM 8088 back in the day.
 
Well then.....I'll just hang onto that P166 for another few years and let it appreciate.....Yep...not gonna bother with that 401K anymore. I got my new retirement strategy all mapped out!

You sold it?? DAmn, my mum gave it to the garbage man.
 
Ah yes.... mention 3dfx and there's bound to be a red-hot Rollo somewhere nearby....

Rollo = hardware? Anyone remember that 3dfx flame-commando? 😛
 
No 3dfx Voodoo Banshee...
No 3dfx Voodoo Rush...

Not a bad collection, but still incomplete. I have a Rush still. 10% slower than a Voodoo1. 😛
 
yeah price got up to over 1K now,
but still do not bring justice to the amount of cards he is selling,

for FREE SHIPPING.
