Here's the best photo from the auction:

Basically, the most interesting thing is the dual VGA output.
Of course, I first thought of Matrox, but none the them on VGA Museum seem to be even close, so it probably isn't that.
Then I thought it could be Radeon 7000 series, but I couldn't find an exact match.

I asked the seller to identify the card, but I think he doesn't want to (it's part of a lot of random junk, everything is sold as untested).

I'm sorry for wasting your time if it's a worthless piece of crap.

The Memory chip layout seems to be common to FX5500 - though they usually go VGA + DVI

Yes, I've thought of the FX series as well (and there are indeed a few dual VGA 5200/5500 models on Google Images), but I ruled them out because I don't think they had the dual-row header at the top left (I never knew what that thing was for anyway).

From my experience, the header is usually present on GeForce 2 and older cards. I thought it might be some kind of MX (which would make it a waste of time), but I just can't find a match.

GeForce 2 MX 400.

I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.

Thank you very much for saving me $10 (and preventing me from being disappointed).
