Hey guys,

I might be able to get me one of these cards, but I have no use for it, so I thought I'd check if someone here might want it.

Can you test it to make sure is it in working condition ? I'm interested in the card, working or defective, if you have a price in mind just let me know. Thanks.

well, I'll 1st have to get it, I will call him today, he hasn't replied to my email yet.
He says it is in excellent condition in his ad, so I suppose it will be working just fine.

*EDIT*

I got a reply, I can get the card for 30 euros, that's including shipping.

As soon as I have it, I will take better pictures and put it in marketplace, is that ok with everyone??

and the card is on it's way to my house as we speak.

I expect it to arrive either before or in the weekend, so I may be able to make some nice pics and test it.

Is this the same card? (but a dual monitor output version?)

yeah, it seems to be the same card, only as you said dual instead of quad monitor support, and the one you posted is 1 pcb, mine is dual pcb.

hey guys,

the card arrived today and what a great day to run outta batterries for the camera. LOL

Will post detailed pics tommorrow, I tried if I could get the 2nd pcb off, there is a chip underneath I wanted to see.
Every part of the 2 pcb's has an S3 chip with ram chips, but the one under the 2nd pcb closest to the bracket has another chip.

But I could get most spacers loose no problem, but the 2 closest to the bracket have the cardwide connector under them and I won't risk damaging the card for that.

Will test it tommorrow as well.

Hmm...interesting... :-?

Anyone have a review of this card, or some info? :-?

First time I've heard of this - might be tempted to get one if I could know more... :)

hey guys,

I tested the card, works just fine.

XP actually detects it as being 4 seperate cards, with a pci to pci bridge.

Anyone interested??
