Hi everyone hehe this last day of the year I found this picture of this wierd Voodoo5 5500 PCI with a black DVI!!!

http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/Graphics/Voodoo5_PCIcardS.jpg

By the looks of it, it has a white string at the top right corner attached to it, so that might lead to an E-Tag so this maybe the PCI version of Oscar's 5500 AGP with Black DVI :)

I dunno who has it but hey it does exsist my friends!!

Let's hope that it will pop up one day :)

I allready mentioned that:

Mkay , but is there any news on that 5500 PCI with Black DVI, it is a card I have never seen before really.

UGH! :P

It won't be a normal DVI...it will be a MAC monitor connector (which is why it's black!). ::)

All of the original MAC connectors for cards were BLACK - but then they changed them to WHITE, just to confuse people even more who bought the MAC V5500 cards... :P

...that's my take on the thing anyhow! ;)

It's a pre-production board.

hmm okay might be a nice card for your collection also Gary :) but the problem is where to find that thing :)

What makes you think I have not? ;-)

I didn't say you would Gary haha

But I thought I found something nice I might as well show ya ;)

Norries there lads ! :D

Okay you score :)

GDonovan -  Obi-Wan kenobi --> 1-0 ;)

I'm gonna re-gen tonight lol.

Anyways does it function well and was it meant for PC or MAC?

It is a Rev.A1 what is the PCB date is that 3100?

so all cards with a black DVI a pre production samples?

yeah I am ashuming that since I never have seen a production Voodoo4 and 5 card with a black DVI, all Production models have White ones, I have seen a Voodoo5 5500 AGP with a black D-Sub along time ago on ebay.de dunno about that one though.

here it is... what a bargain hehe... thanks to Obi  :-*

hey that is very interesting!!!!

it's a Rev.A1 2500 :o :o :o :o :o damn early for a 5500 PCI with DVI Woosshh!

Congrats TM30 it was great help'n ya out here :)

May The Force Be With You ALways, and uhm give her some lovely fans :) hehe she look's alittle naked hey :) 8)

Also it looks like it has a MAC bios and no PC bios also an interesting feature, by the way that screw on it's top right corner can be removed since It doesn't look to belong there and it's missing it's Fan connector for the slave VSA, maybe that can be soldiered on it.

I'm I going blind ???

I can't locate the other power connector for the second GPU fan.

yeah its ripped of, the pins are still there but the white plastic connector is missing...

I have a spare white plastic 'thingy' for a V5500 if you want it @TM30... ;)
