Added these two little gems to my GPU collection today
ELSA Erazor III Pro 32MB AGP 4X (Tnt2 Pro)

Is that a gameport ? never seen a large connector like that on a GPU.
ASUS AGP V7100PRO/PURE/32MB (Geforce 2 MX400)

Also looking at a Diamond Fusion Banshee from the same seller, but really want a Voodoo 3 3000, the MX400 was all of 8 USD which is a steal and I have always wanted at least one ELSA card in my collection. The MX400 will likely end up in my SS7 build if the GeForce 4 I'm repairing fails. (The MX400 is likely to be overkill for a SS7 machine let alone the GF4 ti 4600)
I can't tell for sure from the overhead shot provided, but given the period of this card's release, I am guessing it is VESA P&D out:
Hmm wonder how you would go about using that connector.
Adapters are available. The Voodoo 3500 has a similar pin compatible, but proprietarily slightly odd-shaped connector. The P&D adapter can be massaged to fit the Voodoo 3500 out so it can be directly connected to VGA without the breakout box. Since you have VGA on the card already, you probably have little use for this connector unless you want to go out and get a very period correct flat panel. The P&D is basically a show piece for you at this point. Nice card, in any event.
