Woah welcome back from the dead my man. I was just chatting with @bogmali about how nobody had seen you in awhile.

its so rare you cant find another picture of this.. or can you?

That picture looks very... Doctored. Something about the super sharp lines paired with the blurry stretched/resized PCB and cooler images. It looks like an MSPaint hack-job honestly.

well because it is xD the original pic was slanted and needed to be transformed, this looked more accurate than the original pic this stemmed from in 2005

also the card was sun glared and not presentable for the database, its why i ask anyone who can find better

the more original one

see the sun glare at bottom of the fans? that's what the whole shroud was like

so not a fake pic just an edited one to help it look like it would

I got you man.

Pretty close, yeah? Should be usable.

Edit: Here's a neat close-up of the cooling system.

oh wow was there 2 different models?, different components on the pcb thats awesome

also check the gpu database updates thread, it shows ive been active adding cards

over 210 GTX 1060s alone

this image is too small

I think so. It looks like one is the demo card that they had running on the floor and the other is the photo-op card that they had in the booth. They really aren't that different but just enough to notice.

That's awesome man! You just weren't active on the forum so there was some question as to what had happened to ya. It's funny in our chat I had jokingly poked bogmali about whether there was a spot open for GPUDB curator since we hadn't seen you in awhile.

ahaha well there should be a spot open for cpudb im sick of it, gpus are my passion, cpus are boring

show me the original to the one i modified

and which one is booth and floor

Too true. It's all about the GPUs. I was mostly asking around since I notice most of the older cards are missing a lot of different models, like for example the 7800 GTX has no AIB vendor models listed, it's just the reference 7800. I've got lists upon lists of older cards that could be added.

yes but you realize i have to photoshop EVERY image right? clean background no shadows no slants resized, so far ive edited over 7000 pics xD

ill tell you what, give me the highest OCd version of your fave gpus and ill add them, i need a good pic too

edit: thats the size it has to be

Yeah and we appreciate all you do. Not trying to bust your balls over it, promise! I also have the benefit of owning a substantial number of the cards I've been hoping to add so I can get good clean photos that would require little modification.

So to remain on topic here I'll add a pic of my Fury X ENG Sample that's been my main card for the last two months. It came with no cooler so I had to make something work to get it running at first. I found an original XFX AIO a couple weeks later in a PC recycling shop and so it has a proper cooler, though missing the front cover and backplate still.

Obligatory 3DMark:

and yes all the Furies have same Dev ID even the Pro DUO, AMD is full of people in an office cubical throwing papers around in a frenzy

any of them with pics is all on TPU

Funny I just now came across this thread (cause someone tagged me ). I used to own this guy and the clocks on that thing can match a stock GTX-275. I will post pics if I find any laying around.

Yeah it makes sense though since they all are the same ASIC. Nothing is cut it's just disabled CUs. The difference on mine is that it's revision CB instead of C8. The UEFI date is also March, 2015 and it has a strange capability of clocking to 1210MHz on that UEFI, but doesn't actually perform that great. :/

Still stable at 1160/545 on a later ASUS UEFI and performs great.

imagine how crowded your case with a FX-9590 AiO and a FURY X

ATI/AMD Early stage FireGL Engineering sample. GPU-Z sees it as an HD 3850 256MB.

Has a FireGL V7700 core I think but clocked @ 669MHz core and only 256MB of GDDR3 memory @ 829MHz.

Seems to use a single slot HD 3870 cooler but the PCB is shorter and everything is set back towards the rear I/O more so the cooler was cut to fit on the card. From what I can tell it was designed that way because it matches the silkscreen outline for the cooler on the PCB.

can you try to get it so there isnt any glare? im going to add to db and just want this sample nice

post a gpuz shot so i can add the ID to DB that way when you check the lookup button your pic and specs are shown

the year on that sample says its a year older than the actual V7700

i think you might have an engineering sample to a HD 3830

but i would like to see a gpuz validation and screenshot

I dug deep and found evidence of the card receiving a certification through the Korean Communications Commission in 2009, and a board revision 102-B73802 at the same time. It wasn't certified until well after Cypress (HD 5000 series) launched so it's curious as to why this card was still being pushed by AMD so long after RV670 had been retired. You've got a one of a kind sample for sure.

the hd3830 is chinese market only, so if you have an engineering sample after april 2008, that means thats one of the first HD 3830 for US Retail, nice find!!

I hope these are adequate.

I'm lucky enough to own a boxed 3dfx Voodoo5 5500. Unfortunately, I no longer own a PC that can use it, but I don't plan on getting rid of it. Ever.

 

[DR4G00N]

Oh, and here's the bios from it too.

 

[T4C Fantasy]

Oh, and here's the bios from it too.

did you upload it using gpu-z?
gpu-z parses the info in it

your gpu has the id of a HD 3850 256MB since it has 256bit memory then 3830 has 128 bit, we need to find a real name for it

i believe you to have a unreleased FireGL version of that

until i get a name though i dont know what to put it under in DB

Yes, I saved it using gpu-z.

Not sure for a name on this either. Possibly "Unknown ATI FireGL Engineering Sample (RV670)"?
