Ok, so I have made a few modifications that have been on my to do list for quite some time. I have added the vinyl stickers that read "it's so powerful, it's kind of ridiculous" (which consists of an orange and black stickers) Also added was the black acrylic piece on the back to hide the tape from the plaque on the front. (I also put a 3dfx logo on it)

And for extra anti-moisture protection, two Hydrosorbent Silica Gel Dehumidifiers that have 40 grams of silica beads. They have built-in indicators that turn from blue to pink to signal the need for reactivation. (which can be done in any oven)

I initially contacted Maximum PC to get a copy of a magazine, and whilst doing so I started chatting with the guy about why the V6K was so important to me. I then sent a few pics and gave some history and they were so impressed with my cards and acrylic case that they sent me a printed 11x17 article from their June 2002 issue. Titled "The Last Days of 3dfx" it is a blast to read and look at. So then I went out and bought some frames and below is the outcome.

Just a little something to compliment my shrine.
