I already put the drivers for the Netvision 2000i, Tasmania 3D, Neon 250 and Glint300sx on vongonsdrivers. The rest is easily available in other places.

Okay, no worries 😀

If it feels right for you, go for it.
Me, I'd take the cash, buy a big bike and go cruising on the highways.

Er, NitroX, do you happen to have the original box of Diamond Monster 3D? The version with the line Add 'Killer-3D' To Your PC! in large fonts? 😁
There was one on ebay last year but I missed it. I've been wanting to digitize the artwork to make a replica and enlargements for display.

That and the Creative 3D Blaster Voodoo2 box are the only 3Dfx Voodoo memorabilia that I really really want, well along with the actual cards of course. 😀 And I've already got the plain version of the Creative V2 12MB box (I lost my original Creative Banshee AGP box unfortunately, haven't seen the exact same version ever since).

Here's some tiny pics of the Diamond box in question:

Also I agree with the suggestions from others to keep the ones that you like the most. 😀

If you are really selling your collection i might be in for a 4500 card.

I don`t care about boxed, sealed etc. so just a normal working card is fine for me. If you have one for the right price that would be great, just let me know.

Not selling your stuff would be even better, but it is your choice.....

BTW: did you ever complete the benchmarks you were planning some time ago? You were collecting all kinds of cpu`s for it i remember.

Unfortunately, though I had great plans for my collections (my 3dfx and non-3dfx collections), I must admit that after years of procrastination, it just isn't going to happen.

This made me curious. What were you planning to do with the collection?

I think that the topic starter have made the right choice.. I can imagine that its nice to have a collection like that.. But if he doesnt use these cards on systems, then its just a waste on space and money..
For 10.000 euro you could do other nice things with, like buying a new car or so.

~ At least it can do black and white~

Missed my question about a 4500 Nitrox? Or are you not selling yet.

That is a shame... boxed will be too expensive for me and it will be used anyway.

Looking for one for a long time. I know it`s not a great card anyway but i need it to complete my little collection 🤣

How much would one have to throw at you to snag your collection? 😉

This is one of the reasons why I keep my computer hardware and software collection small; sooner or later the law of diminishing returns will hit you, and a decision has to be made: do I keep going in the same direction, spending more and more time, money and effort on something that no longer gives me much enjoyment? Or do I just forget about it, sell it off and try something new instead?

A good idea is to only collect thing that you will use, or realistically might well use one day. I collect first person shooters (my favourite genre) on the PC and various consoles, and it's fantastic (to me) as I love them so much. And thanks to Steam and Good Old Games, I've been able to get almost every PC game I've ever wanted.

Still looking for a voodoo4 if you have one at a reasonable price... boxed or not, agp or pci, don't really care. Has to be in working condition.

I'm dutch too so i could maybe even pick it up...

Good luck with your auction!
