@ Gamma742
oh that one okay well the box does not look new see the damaged edges and so on, I just want to say the item does not look new, it would be sealed or unscratched if it looked new.
The seller does say it looks like new because he has the box but if you look at the condition of the box it doesn't look that great, sellers say that to sell nothing more.

@Lucidtomr

ask the seller for better pics of the box's condition and how the card is packed, because if it's packed in that plastic bag which it is lay'n on, a chance of buy'n a defect card is large because that ain't no Anti Static bag.

I formatted my pc that morning, setting aside enough time to get back on right before it ended, but I formatted the wrong partition, all my video editing and backup software was gone 

So I then formatted my RAID 0 partition, making sure that was it... and I formatted my other Non SATA raid partition and made that Logical drive. I was done at about 12:30 New York time, about an hour after it ended. I then saw the little punk stole it from me.
.....

Sorry guys but I have 2 more questions.
1. I saw Voodoo 3 3500 select at 3dfxzone .it http://www.3dfxzone.it/news/puntatore.php?uid=247 If I got a European V3 3500 TV will that convert it to North America so I can watch and record TV on my PC?

2. I found another Voodoo 3 3500 tv. The guy emailed me today and said it's NTSC heres the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150015361223&sspagename=ADME:... but is that true? I did some reading and the 3500 TVsi appears to be European International Version. I need some of your guys help because I'm not as knowledgeable when it comes to 3dfx's

I saw a guy selling New v3 3500 TV but those were PAL, not NTSC... But if anyone has used that v3 3500 tv select, I might get a v3 3500 tv as a last resort. Reason why I want a v3 3500tv is because I'd like to use my older pc for Glide, Dos, and Win9x games, and be able to record, leaving my much faster pc for intense apps and HDR. My video card in my pc I'm using now is the ATI x800xt a-i-w, and I'm not sure what's gonna happen to the drivers ATI hosted, and recording video isn't as good as my ol ATI 8500dv a-i-w which recorded my custom settings I made, no corrupt/video deform.

Oh, and I managed to find some Visual Reality screen shots on Tom's hardware site I think. Looks like it's not as easy to navagate. They said you can't record no more than an hour and a half because it just gets too hot, but I've got no problem with that, most shows are half an hour or an hour long.

rather obvious Gamma it's been like that since the TV was born hehe PAL is for Europe and Autralasia and NTSC is for North and South America

it's been like that for ages, so it's nothing new mate

Yeah mine is 2 Voodoo2s SLIed teamed up with my ATI 9800 AIW.

even a Voodoo4 4500 @ 166 Mhz core/mem would defeat a V3 3500 in the most cases, since that the VSA-100 can also do 32Bit and  has 32Megs of ram and support to 64MB [per VSA-100]

the V4 4500 also has a larger fillrate than a V3 3500.

a V4 4500 does:
333 MegaPixel/sec

and a V3 3500 only does:
183 MegaPixel/sec

got that from Exxe's great page
