W: couple of voodoo2s
11.05.08 at 11:57:05

..been looking for one or two on ebay for the last couple of weeks with no luck (either too expensive,no shipping to my place,or no support for paypal)..

so in case someone is willing to part with a standard 12mb v2, I'll be happy to buy.no extra accesories are required/needed,pass-through/sli cable would be nice,but its not a requirement either.no rare cards please,I want to keep this nice and cheap (say 10euro max for one card with cables,including shipping).paypal/moneybookers supported..

no.I'll take single cards,mismatched pair,cables or no cables,whatever,the only requirements are full function and 12mb of memory.I want to do some tests with mismatched cards and I dont feel like using the cards from my collection (I would have to use my v2 mac-the card is in mint condition and I dont want to drag it around risking damage)..basically,if you have an uninteresting standard v2 card that is just collecting dust and its not even worth throwing on ebay,you are my man,and I will take it off your hands happily.and if you have two,even better..

Well,

I have 3 Voodoo 2's, but on one of them I glued heatsinks, so I won't send ya that one.

I'll check tonight which are without the ugly sinks.

They have no boxes, but if you want I do have a functional SLI connector and a passthrough cable as well.

please lemme know your address so I can calculate the costs for ya.

What would you care to give for them?? seperate from shipping that is??

I'll send you a pm. edit: as for the price,depends on how many of them you want to sell,and how many cables do you want to add..

I'll check tonight if all cards are still working, I pulled them in working condition, so it should be ok, but just wanna make sure. I have 1 SLI cable and 2 outter cables, but 1 of them is dodgy I think, I'll send em both to be sure. So if all 3 cards are working, do you want all 3, or is 2 enough??

I seem to remember that when I was using 2 cards in SLI, 1 of the cables was giving a distorted image, and when I removed that one and used the other, there was no problem, so......

But 17 euro for 3 cards + cables seems a bit low.

I was thinking along the lines of 25 euros for 2 cards + cables, shipping and paypal added would be around 30 euros total.

I mean, I don't mind parting with them, but 17 euros for the bunch.....then I just as much put them back in the rig and use em for some old school gaming.

Hi PS47,

unfortunately I have to report that I can't send you the cards, unless you want defect cards.

I have tried all 3 of them, 1 doesn't even get recognized and the other 2 give way distorted images when trying to play a game.

I do not have any other voodoo 2's unfortunately, and when I checked the pcb on one of the 2 that distorted, I did see some scratches on the pcb. Sad

I guess they were damaged somwhere in the moving from house to house.

Sorry to get your hopes up.
