HA, a little ray of sunshine.

The seller guy filed the insurance claim over the weekend and went online to check on it today. The thing is now marked as unclaimed and being returned to sender. He said if it ever makes it back to him he'll send it back to me. I told him I'd give him my work address so that I KNOW it'll get to me just fine.

What gets me is that the post office obviouosly found it to mark it unclaimed and return it to the sender, but they couldn't give me a call to just PICK IT UP when EVERY SINGLE PERSON there has my number by now after all the bitching and moaning I did when they kept telling me they lost it.

Oh well, let's see how this goes.

So, it's a little dusty around the fan outputs. I'm going to wipe the p3 machine and rebuild it around this card tonight and we'll see if the the thing actually works.

Just out of curiosity, what is that header near the center top of the card used for?

I cried a little when I read your first post. I'm glad to know it arrived safely. Happy gaming. 😁
