This is a thread about your dead hardware, mainly after gfx cards..
please include the Brand, model, and any relevant specs (as they were your precious's before they died)
and then tell us a story about how they died, what led to the death, and in what manner they are dead, for example, my story.
BFG Geforce 6800 Ultra OC AGP
- BIOS for 450mhz core, 1200 mem, and Arctic cooling NV5 VGA Silencer.
this card gamed well for 18+ months until it was superceeded by an AGP x1950Pro, months later when i wanted to give her another go-round, when i boot there are mass visual artifacts.... and i can't get anything from her apart from that.... the thing is ahrdware like that (even working) is worthless now, however i paid like 600 USD for it at the time, so to me its still worth that, thus i keep it on my desk as a constant reminder of the good old days.
very very sad, and still considering an RMA from BFG...
oh and this is my first story of many to come, lots of dead hardware with interesting stories![Big Grin :D :D](https://tpucdn.com/forums/data/assets/smilies/biggrin-v1.gif)
i look forward to reading many compelling stories of our fallen comrades, i tip my hat to thee.
i will endeavor to make this thread as awesome as i can, so any suggestions are welcome, and i can even compile all the stories into post #1 if you all like.
