"Quite Sexy" auf hochDeutsch wird wir sagen "Ziemlich sexy" nah klar, sexy auf english ist sexy auf deutsch

well the brand Geil is hilarious for German speaking peoples ... and it's not even a German manufacturer GeIL is the correct acronyme pattern : "Golden emperor International Limited" (hilarious for a Taiwanese brand ... )

i had some DDR3 stick from them with the red LED eyed dragons on it
yep ... that one, the dragons were a bit less marked than the DDR2 preceding it hehe.

For how long have prototype Radeons not used red PCBs?
IIRC, Fury already had a black PCB.

Ruru · May 6, 2020

I'd love to have even one prototype PC part, never had even an ES processor..

25 USD shipping from me to you. I would send you a few at no extra cost if you'd like.
You can message me if you're interested.
Can't do anything about the shipping. Wish you were closer.

Damn it sucks how much shipping around the globe costs. Do the Chinese ebay sellers have some kind of a contract with their postal services since they can sell cheap crap with no postage...

I'm broke atm but I'll keep that in mind, thanks already! :toast:

Well let's hope that my phone cover doesn't take half eternity to arrive (covid19 etc), usually stuff from China takes 2-3 weeks.. weird how my PS1 games from UK haven't arrived, usually when I buy games (UK or Australia almost always) they arrive in a ~week... maybe the pandemic slows down..

Mr.Scott · May 6, 2020

Takes me about a week from AU also.

Yeah the Vitesta is very good memory for overclocking, and specially this as is only 256MB modules, i know from OC champion that best modules for OC are the 256MB ones. So some day if i want to get some good FSB on a 462 system, this memory will be the best for that.

Sadly the DFI LanParty Ultra-D seems did go the green PCB field of the dead computer parts, probably the fucking nVIDIA chipset did die, they run hot and LanParty is known for not being very reliable too...

Ruru · May 6, 2020

NForce 4 does indeed run hella hot, nF3 was cool and could run passively without problems with a reasonable heatsink.

That card BITD was the drool worthy shizznit of gaming cards. Oh yes, whoever buys that card is going to have the envy of anyone old enough to remember it! Bragging rights for days...
Just in case the Ebay page disappears;

Ruru · May 8, 2020

Now I understand how some use 2600K still as their daily driver, paired with 980 Ti this still packs quite a punch, not bad for a 9+ years old CPU.. both RE2 & RE3 runs hella great and I'll be testing more games later on.

Gonna stick with this for a while, probably waiting for B550.

Radical Vision · May 8, 2020

Lmao 800$ the prices of the rare stuff are out of the roof.....
Not to mention parts like GEforce FX5800 Ultra, that are not even that good...

Actually, $800 is a bargain. That card is ULTRA rare.

Radical Vision · May 9, 2020

I know Quantum 3D are no where to be found, but my point is that prices are insane, on parts that should normally cost like 100-200$ max not 1000-2000$ instead...
