Monster 3d II + v3 3k (damaged-giveaway)
09.04.07 at 14:46:51
 
I am giving away those 2 cards, since they are both beyond my reach for any repairs. The V2 is 12M and has those nice mem chips on it with the 100MHz sign. The v3 has a tvout (no heatsink) and has some micron chips (the card reached 200MHz with a vent on the sink).

The V2 has a lot of artifacts. Carefully looking in a game, half the textures seams to have artifacts, so my guess is 1 texture unit is dead whilst mem chips are good for someone who want to desolder them and make an 8M v2 to 12M.

The v3 has also artifacts due to the 3dfx murderer, the kind of clumsiness, his majesty....me. Trying to remove the heatsink (had evil plans on my mind on mounting a copper sink for a few mhz more) I cut 1 rail on the pcb, while 2 more seams intact but without the green stuff protecting them. It also has a tvout (for some awesome TV, artifact projection). Anyways some could make use of the mem chips.

I repeat that I dont want money for the cards. He who might want them will only pay for the postage (I will choose the cheapest airmail via Greek post office) via paypal. I will provide proof of the postage cost so no misunderstanding be made. P.M. me.

The only thing wrong with the V3 is a broken trace?

1 broken and 2 intact but without any layer of protection.

I wouldn't mind taking the V2, since I have 2 creative V2 8MB... Could use the extra ram 'n make a pair of 12MB voodoos Smiley

As far as I remember, V2 has no BIOS and there should be no problems with more RAM?

Ok....from Wednesday I get my final time off the army (8th of May I get fully rid of any service to mother Greece), so I will have time off and go to the post office and tell the postages cost. Greece's official postal office web site is www.elta.gr . Has an English section so someone could calculate the costs to his address.

As for adding extra memory to a v2, yes you can. Biosless, mindless pieces of meet the v2 were Cheesy

Thank you, Outlaw; the Voodoo3 card arrived safely to me. I was able to fix the brocken trace; the other ones are OK and the is no short between them now, but when I tested the board, it still showed artifacts... I will try again to find what is still wrong with it as soon as I will find the free time.
