I have a few nice(er) AGP cards that have finally given up the ghost and starting to show artifacts\etc...

Not sure if they are memory or processing issues, I just know that other than some basic motherboard cap replacement and trace jumping I have no interest in dealing with repair\replacement required of these cards.

Any contacts of folks that still do these sort of repairs?

I'm willing to pay within reason to keep these things alive as the value continues to rise on these things....

I either fix it or break it permanently... there is no try.

I can't help you directly, but putting your loaction in your profile will at least help people know where you are/if they can help.

I second this. There are many people in this forum who have the skills and knowledge to perform repairs on such cards, for which I'd include myself as well. However without knowing where the cards are located, it's a tough to help out. See VGA Repair report collection for reference.

Hard to get around by bike for me 😉 But I'm sure we have some fellow citizens from your country that can help out as well. If no-one wants/can - I'm still here 😁
