So which cards are mod-able? V4 4500 AGP/PCI/PCI MAC & V5 5500 AGP?

I would take 50 chips, maybe more if needed. So count me in, please.

Hi Komponent,

Nice to hear from you again !
And nice to hear that the Projekt is alive 
Of course i'm IN !

I will take 20 pieces !

Radu.

Thanks for speaking up Gamma742.

I'm in the same boat.   

Friends, I kindly asked a favour from you before: if you want to join this group buy, please clearly state the exact number of chips you want (like, say 10 pieces). If you type here something like "I want the RAM to mod 'x' cards", I have no way of knowing what your plans are... You see, I personaly need at least 1 extra chip as a spare just in case something goes bad and I damage one chip when performing the mod; but ofcourse I feel even better if I know that I have 2 extra spare chips rather than one. It is all about the work style of the modder... So if you want to have a specific card RAM swapped, ask the persson who will do the job how many chips does he need to be able to produce a working device and after that state your request here. I mean no offence to anyone, but I cannot count as valid someone's claim to "chips for a Voodoo'X' card"; ask only for number of pieces, please.
Anyway, it looks like we are allready covered for a first tray of chips, if we add Rolo01 (50), RaverX (25), M14Radu (20) and myself. There are at the RAM seller company a total number of 284 pieces in stock; that is another tray of 108 chips plus the bulk samples, so we can ask to buy more of them.
I will now start the paperwork for the first tray and organize the details betweend the buyers on the actions to be followed (payment, shipping,...).

ok,ps47=>20 chips,that should be enough to mod one v5agp right away and one v5pci someday in the future (hopefully).

Well... if by any chance someone wants to have me perform the mod on his card(s), here are my condition I work on:
-You pay for shipping both ways.
-You agree for patience. I have little spare time from my dayly job and modding video cards takes alot of time to be done in proper way.
-You send me 5 RAM chips for a Voodoo4 card and 10 memory modules for a Voodoo5 5500 card (and your card to be modded too, ofcourse).
-You agree to pay 10 Euro for the rework of one  Voodoo4 card and 25 Euro for modding one Voodoo5 5500. If by my fault, modding is not successfull, you pay nothing for my work, I send the parts back to you, but I do not pay for damages.
-As I am a private individual, not a company, I cannot give you receipts for payment made.
-You can ask me to send back the old chips on the card and the left-over spares, or you can send a Voodoo4 AGP card too to have it modded too using the old chips to 64Mb (by soldering 4 of the old chips in the empty spaces on the PCB), for a rework price of 5 Euro for a Voodoo4 AGP, but, ofcourse, I would me more than happy if you let me keep the old and/or spares chips to have them used in other new 3DFX projects of mine. 
-I am not responsable for DOA situations.
By the way, I am located in Romania (that is in the European Union).
If anybody still wants to have me modd his card(s) after reading the above conditions, feel free to contact me.

Just multiply by the number of chips you want...
And, guys, please decide fast! I have to place the Purchase Order as soon as possible (no later than Monday earely morning CET). We can only buy in the following quantities: 1 tray of 108 chips (allready completed requests for chips here), 2 trays (216 pieces) or all of their stock (2 trays plus the evaluating samples, arround 270 pieces).
Important: we still need a persson based in Germany to receive the package, to keep the shipping costs low, as the shipping option they have to Romania is very high priced (by FedEx). Please if one could help here contact me and give me his full shipping adress!
