Sold Voodoo 2 SLI 2x CT6670 Creative cards

[ratfink]

Tested today, working in Windows 98 in Athlon 700 system. With connecting ribbon for SLI and short v2-to-host card.

Tested as follows: 3DMark99 and glquake (allowed opening demo to run a short while) using an opengl32.dll at 640x480.

£200 plus postage. Paypal gift if I haven't traded with you before and/or you don't have plenty of trading feedback.

I'll have to put some Country of Origin on any customs declaration - haven't looked into this for these cards (ah - it's Singapore apparently). Needless to say if it gets confiscated and destroyed by customs, I won't be liable, nor for any taxes or duties.

Note: I had thought one of these would artefact as I had a recollection of that from some years back when I used this system. Today when testing other (non-Voodoo) cards I had some weird glitches so I reseated the RAM and then the ATX connector - and since then I have had no problems with the cards I was testing, nor have I had any problems with these voodoos. I am also testing with the case laying on its side whereas years back it was vertical, so possibly that could have eliminated some weird short between motherboard and case.

Are these 12mb cards each?

In the 4th picture there is 8MB video Memory and 8MB Texture memory, so they are 8MB if You ask me Both card have 4MB of both memory - together 8MB!

 

[cloverskull]

Interest withdrawn. (was previously declared here)

Ah shoot, sorry, gonna withdraw interest - didn't realize these were the 8mb version of the cards. I'm on the lookout for the 12mb ones in SLI. Sorry for the confusion, good luck with sale!

 

[ratfink]

Ok. For the record I didn't state what they were, but provided screenshots hoping it would be clear to those who know what they dealing with (as opposed to supposition). These cards do have the extra chips on the back, which I saw suggested 12mb here: Can a voodoo 2 8m or 12mb be identified physically. So honestly I'm still not sure myself.

For the record, these are 12 MB cards. 8 MB of texture memory is normal (4 MB for the frame buffer + 8 MB for textures).

 

[ratfink]

Thanks, and here's the 3dmax99 screen with SLI disabled... I infer I suppose that "video memory" means frame buffer, and when they are in SLI you get double the frame buffer (hence 8mb, because of what SLI is) but the textures are just replicated on each card (so remains 8mb).

 

[butjer1010]

Sorry, my mistake than?

 

[bloodem]

Sorry, my mistake than?

Definitely. Poor @cloverskull

PMs exchanged with HomeLate regarding postage costs.

Also ran some further tests of the fastvoodoo demos (donut and 3060) for some minutes each as suggested here https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=75076 and no problems observed.

 

[butjer1010]

Definitely. Poor @cloverskull

My apologies to both ratfink and cloverskull... I saw 8MB and automatically made a conclusion (wrong)... and on the pictures i didn't see the back side of the cards

 

[ratfink]

Well, we know for next time

 

[HomeLate]

PM sent and payment made.

Darn! I shouldn't have been so quick to decline interest in that case, I missed out on this one

 

[HomeLate]
