Damn much money for crap.. Locally i buy mostly no warranty at all, since is no ebay. But if is a Voodoo card for dirt cheap like 10 euros and bunch of more stuff why not, most of the time they are just fine. But these newer cards for sure are plagued with these crap rosh compliant, and the newer …

I recently added this X-24 to the collection, thus preventing the closet from collapsing in on itself. Single Slot SLI, taking up the space of two slots... :) Nice card though! The card takes up just one slot (really), but with how much heat produced within the card sandwich, one should probably …

This GTX 580 was listed as new and never used. Not only does have video corruption (no matter which DVI or HDMI port is used), but it BSODs Windows whenever its driver is installed, too. I've seen some video corruption cure itself once the card warms up, but not this one. I also ran a Windows …

I bought this nearly full-length Toshiba DVD decoder. One of the first; this thing was over $1300 new - now less than $20 w/shipping. It works and looks pretty good connected to a S3 Virge or ATI Rage card. It uses the Windows DVD player. The cable I had to buy separately; it cost about half as …

That's up to you. I paid an incredulous... RIDICULOUS amount of money for something I shall not name (not a CPU), but it is practically impossible to find. It was a "grail" item for me, and I paid. Is this CPU w/box an important part of your retro collection? If so, you had better buy. As far a …

I recently bought this Ti4600, but it's no good. It displays an image, but once its driver is installed, I get a black screen or extremely poor performance; 1 choppy frame appears every 10-20 seconds, and that is just for the desktop. It happens with 98SE, ME, and XP. The fan is failing, so I …

Outcast Congratulations! I overlooked that game because of mine own bias - who'd want to play this game? haha..! One of the best ARPGs ever made imo. Loved every minute of that game. It's my own loss, then. I didn't like the way the characters were drawn/modeled primarily. I do have it in my GoG …

It is labeled ASUS V9480. From what i can see that is a GeForce 4 Ti 4800SE. The SE cards was some sort of value-edition or? 8X AGP is the primary selling point for the SE versions. It's the NV28 chip, but otherwise same as the Ti4600. The Ti4800SE is actually the Ti4400 with 8x, the Ti4800 is the …
