I tried the 1280x960 timings on V3/V4/V5 via DVI, and it works perfectly. Thanks again!

Send me the card and i'll make a refund. No reason for drama here.
I hold you responsible, not for '3dfx drivers bugs', but for failing to disclose this issue prior to my purchase. I find it hard to believe that you were unaware of it, as it was immediately noticeable to me and another user (sdz). Had I been informed of it, I would have chosen a different product (and be happy) and avoided this frustration. Returning the item isn’t feasible, as acquiring it was a significant challenge. This isn’t about the money—it’s about making a well-informed decision. I thoroughly reviewed the manual (it was my/the only way to get info how this card works becasue 3dfx Voodoo 3 with HDMI and/or DVI digital output does not exist at all "naturally in the wild" at all and there is no other info on the internet about it or how it could work) and found no mention of this issue. You provide detailed tips and information about the product, including potential problems and solutions, which suggests thorough testing. This makes it implausible that you didn’t notice this issue, and I believe it was deliberately omitted. The so-called 'assistance' you provided via email (as detailed in my previous post, including dismissive responses, ignoring my concerns about the 1280x960 resolution, and incorrect claims about monitor detection causing image shifting) only reinforces my suspicion that you were aware of the problem. At this point, keeping the product and selling it myself seems like my best option.

You're welcome.
3dfx_fan... chill your horses and grow up a little.
Its a miracle, that replica cards even exist, and it took more effort than most are willing to put in, to make it happen.
Cards behave as 3dfx cards should, with all the quirks and bugs that those cards have. Plus additional than can come up with added features, like digital out.
Anthony is one guy, he isnt nVidia.
Feel free to make improvements to the hardware or software side of things. As people are doing.
