yes I see it now:
...

the PCB is somewhat black brownish, just look at the right top corner of the card, it abit black brownish ain't it Smiley

The photographer used a blacklight on the cards to get this wierd and strange Purple glaze, anyway that is my vision of it.  Roll Eyes hmm wierd!  Roll Eyes

My Stingray 128/3D Single Planar with 8 MB looks the same, the PCB is green.

...

If you look close enough at your pic you can read "HERCULES COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY, INC." at the top right of the card and "Stingray 128/3D" at the decal at the BIOS-Chip.

I own the one with 6 MB, too, but that version doesn't have TV Out but only the VGA-connector. The PCB of that card is green, too.

There was a retail version Stingray that I so wanted to buy once on ebay.
It ended at like 5 am US eastern time.
Waited till then.

Reserve wasn't met at $99
and then at the end I went like $199
and Reserve Wasn't Met..

omg, he expects over $200 for a Voodoo Rush...
and so he never contacted me when I asked what was his selling price.

Never saw the auction listed again after that..
what a waste of time, effort and lack of sleep LOL

Hehehe edmundo, i know what you are saying Wink....I tried to bid on Stingray too. Well, you want to know what was seller's selling price?? If i remember correct he wanted about 1000$$$ or a bit more.....absolutely crazy Grin. Seller revealed reserve-price in a hardware computer forum...If you have the old auction page still available, you will find in it the link to the forum Wink
