its a rare card, man! much more rare than the 6000

.

Well it depends on which 6000 you're aiming at ofcourse, a Voodoo5 6000 41-4999 2x2 model and a Rev.A1 1500 with Intel Bridge chips are way more rarer than a 5000 PCI Wink

even a Rev.A2 2600 and Rev.A3 3400 are more rarer than a 5000 PCI Rev.A1 0900.
But yes it is rarer than a Voodoo5 6000 Rev.A 3700 ofcourse.

oh well it may not be 3dfx, but this ATi RadeonX800 XT Platinum Edition seems to be rare also :

a real sealed ATi, no sub branded X800XT PE Wink

and here a nice Power Color EvilKing IV boxed

(google imagesearch) but the seller said the card is identical. and in the auction he wrote "32mb" so chances are good that its acutally a 5000

Yes, right down to the identical fan decal clocked location, smudged "made in mexico" decal and paper tag string on the upper right hand corner.

Which is what DirectX tools will report a 5500 AGP/PCI has for ram as it only sees one chipset.

Not at all, I just have a hardcore view of reality, you can fool others but don't try and fool yourself as that way lies madness.

Heck I won a Graphite system last week but as far as I'm concerned I don't own it till the UPS truck pulls out of the driveway and the box is open at my feet. A dozen things can happen between the time you buy something and it shows up.

I have lost count of the number of times I purchased something and was burned, you learn quick not to say anything till the box is in hand.

I'm just pointing that the picture in the auction is the same picture floating around the net, what would you infer from that?
