Car looks fantastic! I concur the "car" looks very nice and I especially like what's under the "hood" I found an interesting prototype but it's missing the engine Anybody got a spare GF4 4200GO chip?

Well I only recently received the card and had not time to search for the specs of the GeForce 4 GPUs to be sure what would work from pin-out and voltage perspective.
In any case it would be too complicated to unsolder and re-ball a GPU since I don't experience in this task.
The simplest method is to buy the right chip from a reliable source and I found such a thing here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nvidia-GeForce-4200Go-Chipset-IC-/260937496360?pt=LH_Def...
I would prefer a brand new GPU but the one above might work as well.

@gwb I'd really appreciate it if you could upload the specs you have on the Geforce4 Bga's once you find them.

I have GoForce 4 series pinouts XD Anyway, new stuff Simply gorgeous machined sample heatsink that came with card. A lot of work went into making this heatsink! Heatsink difference

I've got also a new card which is not that common, at least in the European area. The 3Dlabs P10 with it's 76 million transistors at 150nm is getting pretty hot

Enjoy,

Thank you.

Very nice card. Looks like a very early sample for single PCB 295- 2008 datecode! Very nice cooler indeed, I simply love these machined blocks

Same card again. All SMT caps?

Well yes it's an early GTX295 single pcb but dated 1109. In late 2008 the had the dual pcb cards in the works.

Early G92 GPU and board:

What could this be?
