Yea its a voodoo 3 3000.
Cool looking white setup you got here Ninco and I knew I had one of those old games you mention somewhere here... yep found it!
I took advantage of the post and of the fact that I was in Manchester for a few days and I sent an offer of 110£. The guy accepted it, so I had to pay for it. I've been yesterday to collect all the stuff, I filled the whole boot. I just got home and had a look into the cases. Pentium 100 with a Cirrus Logic and ALS 200 sound card, Unika case has a Celeron at 2ghz with no other cards and the Dell has a 2.8 Ghz P4 with just a firewire card in it. I'll test all of them tomorrow, including the Voodoo 3. I hope the Voodoo 3 will work.
Glad someone from here picked it up - bit far for me otherwise I would definitely have been tempted. Like you say a working V3 is almost worth the money paid for the whole lot.I took advantage of the post and of the fact that I was in Manchester for a few days and I sent an offer of 110£.

The guy was moving houses and he wanted to get rid of all the stuff he found in the loft, he couldn't believe only the Voodoo 3 can fetch up to 100£. He was starting to feel sorry, but the stuff was already in the boot
I think I will keep the two beige cases, especially if I can make the LCD frequency display to work, not sure about the Dell unit as it doesn't have an AGP port, but everything else will have to go, probably to a recycling centre. If you will need anything from that lot, let me know, I can post it if you only pay for the postage. There's 4 LCD monitors, he said all work. I will go through the lot tomorrow and test everything.
great haul!I took advantage of the post and of the fact that I was in Manchester for a few days and I sent an offer of 110£. The guy accepted it, so I had to pay for it.

The Voodoo 3 works, it has the letter "G" at the end, I guess it's because of the TV-out?great haul!
If anything dont throw the compaq LCD
Hope the V3 works
That's my favourite seller on Ebay and I used to be his favourite buyer for a whileThats a hell of a haul!
I had a tough time testing my sb16 but eventually got it working just fine. Its my motherboard being picky again I think. Its in desperate need of reflowing so I've ordered some flux so I can give it a go.(Known good VGA cards being fussy, randomly not booting with repeating beeps and clicks from floppy drive, other soundcard not detecting easily too)
So I just picked this up as it is very cheap for a well featured 486 board and potentially a good replacement although I have not heard of the brand before but there seems to be enough silkscreen with the jumper info to get it going.

I went to his house recently to replace a socket 7 motherboard. Very nice guy.I did post on the FB group, I wasn't sure 100% what card it is
He said he's got over 30 PC units in the loft, I'm curious what's in them.
I’ve had a fair few parts from him too. Managed to fix the last 2 boards I had that were listed as sparesThat's my favourite seller on Ebay and I used to be his favourite buyer for a while

The PCI-E is an FX 5200, I was hoping for something better, but it's ok. I guess the chip was an AGP variant, so they used that bridge for PCI-E.
I forgot to add in the picture a Geforce 2 Ti from ASUS that I got with the lot too.
I'm waiting now for him to post the 486 overdrive CPU with the original box that I forgot at his house...
Except for the AWE 64, most of the cards will go on ebay as auctions if I have the time to test them properly. I'm not a fan of MS-DOS OS, too much hassle with commands
He does seem to charge top prices but does accept best offers too. I think a few of us have got bits from him. There is also a lot of overpriced crap in the store too!
Sometimes he doesn't price the parts accordingly, he doesn't know what that part actually is, I managed to get a few parts this way for a very good price. Recently he stopped accepting 20-30% less best offers and only gives like 1£ discount lol.
