    What retro things have you done today?

    Talking about Fury Maxx I got this one recently for 25£ from eBay, working card. It's my second Fury Maxx, it will go to a friend that doesn't have one in his collection. The 3dfx has a faulty capacitor and displays artefacts...

    Don't buy these new cards, all the ones I see on Ebay are exactly the same with the new PCB. They got a new BIOS that break compatibility with old motherboards. I bought one a couple years ago and can confirm that. If you're looking for a PCI card, get it from this guy, I got an offer for it...

    You do get this with Ebay, people trying to take advantage. I usually post multiple pictures of the cards running and provide a detailed description to cover my back. Just mention anything that you might think they can pick on. When they get back to you, you can ask them if they've read the...

    Best would be to test it out, maybe change the thermal paste. You invest some time into "refurbishing" it, then you can ask for more for it.

    FSP were the good ones back in the day, they made solid PSU's. Really good for systems with Athlon/XP.

    The gumtree one is worth the money, you get a CRT monitor and a shiny mouse. The FB listing is way too expensive

    What retro things have you done today?

    Yeah, that was too much even for me and I buy a lot of stuff that I don't really need. If at least the V3500, Voodoo 2 and the GF3 work, then it's worth it. Otherwise not really..

    I will be tempted to bid on it, I don't know how much though. Definitely over 100£. Just paid my credit card, so I can go into debt again lol

    There's a Voodoo 3500 in there too and TNT M64. The Voodoo 2 might have some bent pins, all the other cards should be ok, I guess...

    What retro things have you done today?

    Pls, I need to know the model of that PSU :D, the weak part of the Shuttle units are those 250W power supplies. Nice unit with the HD4850. I used different similar cards like 9600GT, 8800GT or HD 3850 with the 250W PSU's, but I was afraid it will blow up, so I went to 8600GT or other cards that...

    The 450W PSU is very nice, you can add more powerful cards in it. Usually they come with 250W power supplies... Is anyone near Exeter? This unit could sell for a nice price, dual pentium II board - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304726100510

    I would go with Socket 754 or even 939, you can still find cheap motherboards and CPUs, great choice for heatsinks too. Socket 478 is a pain to get heatsinks and higher speed CPUs now, getting more and more expensive. Talking about Socket 754, I just managed to get the 3700+, I've been looking...

    To be honest, it's been a few years since I got it, I haven't see one since :( Yes, it's the ASUS Silent Knight. I got another one at home, I don't have a purpose for it, if you're interested you can have it as well. I need to check for the mounting kit, not sure if it has one. I usually don't...

    What retro things have you done today?

    I've got one for my collection, bought it with a unit that had a socket 939 in it. It's a nice piece of kit, I couldn't let my self give it to somebody else. There was someone from France asking about it on the FB Retro group page, I told him that I will let him know if I see one. But I would...
