Sure, keep them sealed!

Wink

If you really want that card running in a machine, look for another one on eBay, you'll get one for less than 5 EUR easily!

Do you have some pictures?

You sure did a great deal.

8)

I'm afraid those won't get high prices, but probably you'll be able to find a collector whom to sell your second sealed one.

most of my 3dfx cards i found are new / old stock , powercolor , nuvision , creative . The first 2 types were a shame didn`t enough cash , 4 powercolor v33000  and 3 nuvision s v33000 all brandnew , got one of each !

others secondhand v55000 with box acc , v32000 , creative banchee i bought years ago acc no box , diamond voodoo graphics , magic v2 12m
nothing special but i still like the old games and have the hardware to run them

i don`t chase them if they turn up they turn up !
rather buy old stock then second hand
got a dead v55000 one day! lucky i could return it

i`ll get a picture of my nuvision box for anyone interested

ah its just a powercolor with a nice box !  Grin runs great thought on a p3 800 with quake 3 , was going to put the v5500 in that system but the v3 does an excellent job

shame if i had more cash at the time i would have got the other 2 ! they sold very quickly !

have to get a boxed matrox to go with the v2`s

almost bought a dual 550 intel board but the rd ram put me of only 128m

they would of made a great retro set !

hmm NuVision sounds rather Aussie too hehe, Might be an Australian brand, does it say on the box where it is made and so on or a website of that brand?

Or could I see that brand like Trust, a company that buys old stock from others and repacks and resells those items?
