In year 2000 a V5 6000 3700 had a value of 600 dollars.
I have baught my first 6k 3700 with compatible motherboard a long time ago for a price of 1000 euros.
In 2013 you can buy one for 3500 euros and more...


The prices have only gone that high because of you Sad


Not only me.


Nope. 'cause you and no one else.

Sellers? Although sellers have their own responsibility they just sell things to those who pay more for them, but before you a v56k never reached such crazy prices.

This is the truth, simple and plain.
Kid, you are a plague, face it.

Tired of hearing the same thing.

If you do not like mod 6k. I understand.  But no need to repeat it in every post. In each topic I always find the same answer. It is redundant.

The price of a 6k depends on supply and Demanda. It's not fair to always blame Michel. Before anyone selling a 6k since the price was not attractive. Everybody preferred to keep and not sell. At one point appeared Michel and achieved what no one had done it. Buy 6k. Michel makes an offer and the seller sells.

I think Michel made a big mistake. Buy 6k common at exorbitant prices. When he should choose which card he wants and try to buy. Here his mistake.

And now I'm sure he would not buy more common 6k how did lately. Sure he prefers  quality and not quantity.

People learn based errors.

The HSF looks okay, but somehow I think 2 80mm fans on each side would displace more air and be quieter than those 8 40mm fans.

Perhaps you could even do with just 1 80mm fan on each side.

but why do you want to overclock all those 6000's?? what the use? you only risk damaging the cards this way.


If you o/c one 3dfx card you don't risk to damage it because there is a freeze and after you restart your pc and no problem (frequency by default @166MHz for the V5k6)
It's very rare to damage a card with an o/c.



Cooler looks great, but it could have looked much better on black. heeh.

but..

Electromigration.

I have to admit that it looks better on the card then I expected Smiley

And as said, but that ofcourse is taste I guess, I also think it would look cooler if the heatsink was black, nice dark look to it. Smiley

The cooler looks very nice and remember me of the original 3dfx cooler for v5 6000.

Are you using the modded v5 6000, with 3.5ns memory chips ?
