Title: V3 3000 PCI Pricing Question
Post by comptech_69 on 19.03.06 at 15:26:42
What is a good price for a V3 3000 PCI? Is $15 a good deal or is that expensive for it?

It's ok, sometimes you can find them cheaper if you wait. The PCI cards tend to be in higher demand as they can be used as secondary adapters in modern systems.

If you are in no hurry, wait for a 4500 PCI. You get active cooling, 32 bit color support, good overclocking and 2x AA.

They show up on Ebay for $10-$20 if you catch an auction right.

I bought one from the same seller at a slightly more inflated price however, pristine condition oem, works great as a secondary card on my 8k3a board. He will have more of these items if asked.

You'd better ask before bidding. Maybe the image is not a picture of the actual item ;)

hehe cool :) 4500 PCI's are sweet and  small in size, they simply fit in every PC even Barebones  8)

thought they lack a second VSA-100 and an extra 32Megs of ram that it's Voodoo5 5500 PCI Brother has hehe, but it's size is it's main advantage, the 5500 PCI sometimes is too long for some PC cases hehe.

I hope you enjoy it, I used to have one and yeah sometimes I do miss it, oh well they are easy to find hehe.

about the price of that V3 3K PCI 15USD is abit cheap, I sold my 3K PCI for 17 Euro's which is about 22 US dollars :) so that might help ya out there :)

Well, I installed it and it works great! Nothing like having a tri-monitor system! Now all I need to do is get some heatsinks on my 5500 and I'll be set!  ;D
