Got five of these sealed sd ram modules today. The ad sad in box, however didn't state these are still sealed. Nice. Won't be opening up these.

Those sealed IBM boxes are a sweet find!!!

I was looking for a while too, stereo mixers are a rare breed, I've already got a behringer RX1602 but I finally found the one I was looking for at a local music store after multiple failed attempts on ebay, and its retro!
also some other stuff ...now I can get some more midi modules :3

Whoa, some serious stuff here!

Funny, got exactly such a Terratec Maestro 16/95 Ver. 1.0 just a few weeks ago, too. Haven't tried it yet, however.

Should be getting something interesting this weekend...

Spotted a "box of new industrial PC cards". Did a lowball offer and it got accepted.

Very clear pics for once, but only pics of the front of the boxes with no part numbers or indeed indication of whatever is in there. Just one positive identification, a "Super Sound Origins 3D+" sound card, which appears to be a very lackluster OPTi 931-based design. Apart from that there are some boxes with Widoshi on them (could be anything), what looks like a PCMCIA Ethernet adapter, another sound card of some (inevitably low-end) description, apparently an ISA IDE controller. Oh, and a shiny new box with "Tyan Computer AT motherboard Ultra DMA" on it 😜

Very, very interested in what that could be. Googling shows it's the same box the Tsunami S1830 (i440BX, bAT) came in, but tbh any Tyan from that era (~1998) would be very welcome.

was it in a blue box? ^^

the seller sold two of these, the other was without the speakers, for some reason that one was called "special edition" while mine with speakers and extra software was not x3
I wanted to bid on both, but I somehow forgot to bid on the first one ^^

also another guillemot card :3
Guillemot Maxi Sound 64 Home Studio

I found a listing on the FB market, for some old hardware.
An assortment of cards, wires, and memory modules.

What caught my eyes where these:

STB Velocity 128 PCI RIVA TNT 1997

Matrox G200 1998 AGP

A-Trend Helios 3D 2 1998 PCI

ASUS V7700 TI 64MB 2001 AGP

And some from Evilbay

Dell OEM Geforce 2 GTS 32MB 2000 AGP

Matrox Parhelia 256MB 2002 AGP

Have a nice day

My black Commodore64 case arived today. Yes, it is not perfect. It is produced on the original Commodore 1986 molds.
They have been reworked a number of times, so the signs are there. However... Modern plastic that does NOT turn yellow.
I simply love this case. And the orange led will make it so nice, once my C64 SixtyClone machine is done. (Near complete C64 replica)
With this case, I bought an orange led. It comes with an sticker, screws and a set of rubber feet's.
I will not be using the rubber feet, as I have a couple of brown 3M rubber feet's in the parts box.
The box have a seperate compartment for stuff. So this can be used to make a boxed C64. Love it...

An Aureal Vortex 2.

Hi, do you have the manual for this card. I'm trying to connect the dvd to the card so i can have clean sound via S/PDIF

Payed a little more that what I should of. But my CC owed me money from a refund so what the heck.

Nice find!! I had that board back in the day and I miss it terribly.

Thanks. I switch from my kg7 to a ic7 so I never got to play the better of the 462 boards back in the day. Wish I was able to find a ic7-maxx, but I'm sure this board will do.

That board should serve you well. The only socket A board I have is the Abit KT7A-RAID and it really preforms well I build the system for my son to play older educational software and games.

nah, that point goes to all slot CPU boards that have the ATX connector in front of the CPU where the heatsink is supposed to go.

My devotion to period-correctness led me to spot this Pentium 3 SL48S "1000G" on the Bay of E. Datecoded Week 18 of 2000 (first week of May)! An early production run for OEMS?

Even better. It's a boxed retail CPU. Produced in May 2000 is pretty early. Only 2 months after the March paper launch. Very very nice!

oops posted in wrong thread;

Picked up a Roland A-880 with manual, so I can replace my MPU 104 + MPU 105 now.

Skimming the manual... battery backup.. uhoh.

yep.. there it is but its retention clip looks to be soldered to the motherboard. uuuugh. damn. Thats a job for the weekend.
