Why would you let other people know about this erek? Isn't this something you want?

 

[kirbyrj]

I think I'd have a hard time buying anything for a collection from a eBay user named "Cheese Omelet"

 

[dexvx]

Lets guess how high this will go. $2000?

I do, but also previously managed to get the Holy Grail of FX 5800 Ultras... the Review Sample with Translucent Green shroud... that's the real prize

compared to some of the prices i got a good deal considering the value of the card... only paid 650 or so USD instead of over 2000+

I've heard stories of non-genuine shrouds making it out into the wild. Hmmm.

this sold for 810 USD

Doom 3!

Remember when Ultra settings recommended 512MB of VRAM and no such card with that much memory existed yet? I remember getting my pair of 8800GTX with 768MB of VRAM in 2006 and the first game I played was Doom 3 with all the settings cranked on my 55" DLP TV at 1920x1080. Good times.

Well this only sold for $800, a little disappointing. Then again it's a MSI card.

the MSI packaging is far superior to the BFG Asylum, think it came with 10 games

anyways... even being MSI... with it being the reference FX Flow design... I purchased this auction myself

Good get. The collection grows.

I was high bidder on the card until about $300. I knew I wouldn't win it since it had 30+ watchers. No need to win it since I'm content with the LNIB BFG 5800 Ultra I already have but it would have been nice to get my hands on another. I love that there is enthusiasm out there for this sort of useless junk.

useless junk?

 

[lavaheadache]

useless junk?

I was being sarcastic as I too am a retro video card junkie but in all seriousness, are you implying that a 5800 ultra is in fact useful junk?

useless perhaps somewhat, but not junk

It didn't come with 10 games. The 5800 ultra NBOX that I received when I modded @ MSI forum. Did come with a shit ton of games. Was a $700 card though.

I posted a new video

Tested fine:

 

[NKD]

damn 810 bucks for that. I guess I am happy with my 2080ti that I got for less then 1k now rofl.

Congrats on the new addition to the collection!
