Reply #1 - 26.05.04 at 23:29:49 ugh I actually owned a Card looking exactly like that, but I (currently) don't find it (?) IMHO, I still should have it, but it's vanished for now scratches head If it ever turns up again, I'll let you know. - edit - Patience was first, and now I know what to look for in my house g

Reply #3 - 27.05.04 at 18:06:14 Heh, I own TWO of these (yup it's SLI time!) BOTH of mine are boxed with original stuff (inc. demo CD in one of the boxes). Also one of my cards is in a FRENCH box! Only problem was getting two of them as they are RARE! (And they STILL need a fan despite the heatsinks!)

Hmm, they perform as well as any other V2. Roll Eyes

However...the best bit is the 'built in' heatsinks! Wink

This means that with a nice 80mm cooling fan and (maybe) a Zalman fan mate or pyramid fan limiter...you'll be SET! Cheesy

Set for what? ???

For REALLY smooth 1024x768 GLiDE gaming! Grin

I've tested these cards in SLI and they run nice and smooth playing UT, Unreal and Return to Na Pali! Grin

(which, let's face it was what the V2 was INVEVTED for, mwahahahaha!) Wink

==edit==

Forgot to say that mine are currently idling in their boxes at the moment (my new mobo is NFORCE2 400 ULTRA, so no V2's allowed!) Cry

Also, it's quite hard to get a matching pair of these (took me about 6 months to find the second one...) Shocked

Shame to hear about the V2's not in action. How come? What is with the nForce2? No compatibility with the mobo (different PCI bus?), no room to fit them? ???
