looking for a pair of voodoo2 video cards. these are rather old and not very useful now a days but putting together a retro build and thought these would be cool to top it off with. Let me know what you got and price. _________________ Pentium Pro Junkie! |

i got about 10 various vodoo cacrds. need to check if any voodoo 2 in there...
as far as i remeber there was a variation with memory size on board... do you recall ?
- just checked i have about 7 various voodoo 2 cards and 4 cables for them i also have 5 various voodoo 3 cards and 2 voodoo3500 with tv/fm tuner cards with 2 big cables for them.
ALL CARDS ARE TESTED AND ARE WORKING.
p.s. if you will ever need to identify voodoo cards refer to this page, i find it most useful:

p.p.s. i sold my 2 voodoo 5 cards for 100$ each about a year ago, very sad now... |

Im not interested in the voodoo 5 (to new). I want two voodoo2 12MB units (also came in 8MB versions) with cable. I know there pretty crappy now a days but thought I would save a couple from the land fill for a retro build im doing. Let me know. _________________ Pentium Pro Junkie! |

the cards shouldn't be an issue, but the cable will be the harder find _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

To rich for me on my vintage build. I had no idea people were paying that much for a set of cards that old. I'm gonna pass and go with a TNT I can't justify the cost on that. _________________ Pentium Pro Junkie! |

| dan87951, would a Voodoo 3 (/Banshee 1000), with 8MB, single vga output, and regular AGP do you good? I found that they`re great for convincing a motherboard to run Ubuntu 8.04, 9.10, and 10.10 graphically on only 256 MB of RAM. Both low- Ram and 32 MB of RAM VGAs cause a prompt and text installation. I gave one away in a computer doing this and still have one card left. PM me if it`s right for you. |
