Can you help me identify this graphics card?
It is inside of an 486 system, at the very end of pc housing, so it must be VLB (i never saw 486 with PCI on the back of the board).

The only thing i have is this image from the back:

Not if it is an known model, and not many cards have those kinds of output.

Well, it may be impossible to ID it perfectly, but you may be able to narrow it down considering it has the following connectors:

* VGA
* Composite Video
* 4-pin S-Video
* 9-pin S-Video

It may not actually be a video card given all those video connections and especially considering the 9-pin S-Video (which may not actually be S-Video but that's the most likely). My guess is some kind of early video capture card.

This could be some videocard with advanced passthrough capabilities like subtitle overlay engine. Or even a video card with 3D-glasses support?

This was my first associations were:

And this one is just kind of cute:

You should totally buy the PC, the case seems to be in excellent condition! And look how close DIN-5 connector is to the edge of the case!

Yeah I'm definitely buying because of the case 😀
But some one else is interested and i dont want it to end up too expensive. If the VGA card is something cool than I'm gonna push it further.

It is neither of those cards, the odds of it being something newer like a voodoo rush is possible.

Yeah but I can't think of a 486 PCI board that has no onboard serial ports and has a PCI slot at the very bottom.
