-Monster 3D PCI 4MB (gives picture, shows up in device manager, drivers install without any problems, when trying to play 3Dfx demo programs or games computer hangs - no video output)
-Monster 3D PCI 4MB (gives picture, shows up in device manager, drivers install without any problems, plays 3Dfx demo programs with artefacts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3a0habo4Uk&list=TLPQMjYwMjIwMjDjXLew5JPJXw&index=1)

I am not responsible, if the card behaves differently on your machine or doesn't get recognized at all. Selling these as NOT WORKING, DEFECTIVE and FAULTY so no returns accepted.

Selling as a lot or separately.

Price: -35 17 EUR (lot) + 20 10 EUR tracked shipping to EU.
-7 EUR + 8 EUR tracked shipping to EU

User EMPEROR has expressed interest in Monster 3D II PCI 12MB. I've agreed to sell it seperately so I have crossed it out it from the list. I have also updated the price for the remaining three cards.

Well user EMPEROR has broken the forum Rules twice, i.e silent bidding and asking for a split
 
Monster 3D with artifacts is sometimes curable when heat sinks are applied to 3dfx chips. Proper size cut heat sinks are available on other bay quite cheaply. Good luck.

I have in the same situation. Any help?? Replace DAC?
 
This is not a bidding, so I don't see how I did silent bidding. I first asked if he is willing to sell separately. When the seller told me he is willing to do so, I asked if I should write in this thread or he should edit the thread. I am sorry that I did asked and didn't write here directly. Apologies for that.

Here is my first PM:

"Hello,
Any chance of selling this one alone:
-Monster 3D II PCI 12MB
If yes, how much would you want for it shipped to Germany?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards!"

And my second PM:

"
I am sorry for the late reply. I agree on your offer.
Should I write in your thread or will you remove the V2 from your ad?
Also need your PayPal.
Kind regards!"

As I said I wanted to see if he is willing to sell separately at all. Sorry for braking the rules though. Note taken.

quotes from the forum rules

Sending a PM before posting in the thread:
Sending a private message before declaring interest is considered "silent bidding". You will lose your place in line to someone who has declared interest in the thread and may receive infraction points for doing so.


Asking for splits:
Sellers are not to be asked to split a lot.
 
Okey... since my actions were against the rules I retract my offer. Apologies to the forum administration.
 
I would also like to appologize. My post showed that I was not being sneaky or anthing like that just didn't read the rules very carefully. We learn something new every day I guess. Since EMPEROR retracted his offer I have restored the original post and added a line that items can be sold separately.
