Anyone who would like a more modestly priced piece of history should PM me :roll:.

Sweet I got 1 anyone want to pay me $500 for it?...lol Figured Id go a little cheaper as mine is a Sapphire w/ zalman 700CU on it, maybe I can beat the rush of purchasers to that deal!


Hey Zek ...that aughta make urs a sweet attractive deal!!!!

I have a still running flawlessly ATI x850pro AGP that I modded to a full 16 pipe, full speed XT PE (Bios Flashed of course), slapped an AC cooler on it (silencer 5 rv.2 I believe). It only cost me $115 or $120 from that ATI Clearance a year ago! And $20 for the cooler. LoL!

That card is still probably my favorite for just how much tuning, tweaking and OC-ing it would allow. I'm looking forward to replacing my current x1950pro with a 2900pro (I knew they'd release it, just not as soon as I had hoped).

sneekypeetHey Zek ...that aughta make urs a sweet attractive deal!!!!

It had sure better, I might get the $125 out of it that I wanted in the first place :).

At those egg prices you should just try to trade up to an 8800Ultra...lol

i wouldn't pay that much for something like that history doesn't mean that much to me. If i was going to pay $600 for a video card i would get a 8800GTX and get a C2D.

You are a true "journalist" Zek.

Got a question tho...whats the yellow clip near the AUX power plug...my Sapphire didn't come with that on it?

Mine has it too..I don't remember exactly, I want to say something for their Avivo, I know if the card has Vivo or whatever it'd also have that yellow plug on it...but I don't quite remember...

that does explain it a bit as I know mine has no VIVO chip on it!

Id rather have an 8800 Ultra and $100 spare, thanks.

Never bought an ATI card in my life :p

sneekypeetthat does explain it a bit as I know mine has no VIVO chip on it!

The reason I bought the card was due to the craze a year ago with the Clearance sale and the possibility of flashing a 12 pipe 850pro to a 16 pipe 850xtpe, I couldn't pass it up. One of the requirements for a successful flash was to have the Vivo chip and yellow plug (or rage theater chip...can't really recall anymore). I lucked out with getting the vivo version and having one that wasn't laser cut on-die! Woot!

That card is in my G/F's PC and she uses it for gaming regularly. It still does a great job! :toast:

THE EGG IS OF ITS ROCKER

my x800gto2 is still up for sale for 80$ or whatever, and i haven't gotten any offers

wtf!! lol

goooooood luck newegg.....

It have one in the drawer I will take 300 hundred for it anyone, anyone thats less than half price. What a great card and it will still play just about anything out.

and when i complained about the egg everyone bashed me ...

Godly...

I bought mine this past December, it's just an X800gto. Was hoping for a 16 pipe, but I ended up with an x800Pro core. If any of you with an AGP version want to pawn yours off on me, I might pay a fair price for one, since I'm upgrading to an Am2-AGP mobo here in a couple of days.

i bought a refurbished sapphire x850xt pe card for $50 from newegg about 8 months ago. i would love to know what the idiot that eventually (if) buys that card is thinking. lol.

I've seen this in the uk a few times, not quite as extreme as that though, but who would buy either of these radeons:

mmm i wonder if X1950PRO's will get the same recognition :)

i wonder if x800s will be collector items [=
