My gaming rig is dead, got a spare graphics card?

[at0m]

I'm sick of my gaming rig sitting in a corner. Its GeForce 6800 overheats and it has a bad HDD. It's been sitting in a corner for over a year because I can't afford a new graphics card for it, although I did manage to score a terabyte hdd about 6 months ago. I had the money set aside for it then my car broke down, $1200 in repairs. I'm bitter because I can't even play old games at decent res/quality, let alone anything new like Borderlands which everyone is fapping about. Caff suggested asking the forums, which I'm loathe to do but here goes: Anyone have a spare PCI-X graphics card they'd be willing to let go for cheap?

well I dunno I might. I have an 8800gt sitting in my room which may or not work but it is covered under a lifetime warranty and it hasn't been registered yet.

I've got a Creative Labs 32 meg Banshee Voodoo II AGP up on the shelf ;P

What's wrong with it?

I've got a GeForce Ti4200, but it's also 8x AGP. I need a PCI-X card :/

dunno if it works. Last time It was in a comp nothing displayed at all not even the bios when I got it working it had the one that's in there now. It could work it might not.

[at0m]

Worth a shot. Dropped you a PM.

seems relevant to this topic , i get this in my mailbox this morning.


I looked at all the 6pin connectors these cards needed and i could hear my PSU's penis inverting.

I'm actually in the middle of rebuilding the rig into an Antec 300 case, the Sonata I was using is part of the reason I've been having overheat problems.

Mine's still broken :<
