I have gotten a v5 5500 AGP that was damaged during shipping. Insurance wasn't done so I am offering it for free to anyone willing to pay the shipping.

I will try to take some pictures. Basically the card has 2 capacitors that have come off that I found in the box. There is also a couple areas where the heatsinks dug slightly into the board. Overall, it looks decent.

Very cool. Cool

I'm glad you can put this card to use.

Card arrived. Excelent packing! Though it had a few SMD's brockened off the PCB and a couple of copper traces ripped, it was an easy fix to do and a pleasure to work on it and now it seems to run OK. Ofcourse when I will have some more time to spare, I should run on it a number of 3Dmark loops...
Big thanks go to Razrx!
