They literally just snatched a pic of Raiden for their artwork
Also this company was also caught peddling “brand new” AMD cards with used GPU chips during the chip shortage a few years ago.

Some places hold on to em for a) retro builds, yes people build 97, XP and Vista machines for the hell of it and b) some repair shops hang on to em for office machines, usually older work stations.
There’s other reasons but that’s mostly the two reasons the shops around here have them stocked.

That’s a nice product, Senator.

Why? To connect extra monitors where you couldn’t before. And the ability to watch HD videos, and to play Counter-Strike, for a computer of its era.

I know that this isn’t what the post is about, but I’m amazed you found somewhere that fixes printers. Everyone just buys a new one.

When average Windows 7 midrange pc could get 1 gb VRAM and 4 gb RAM. (I know, below xx50 segment is a low end)
While PS3/x360 were stuck around 500 mb total RAM

I worked for a B&M computer store in the early 2000’s with an actual showroom. We always had random old ass equipment out there. No one bought it and the owner kept it on display, just to have something on display. Occasionally it would get bought (heavily discounted) or end up in the bin.

Oh so you are that one client who swears “the geeks” will kindly do the printer repair “tuneup” for free lol

My first graphics cards for my senior project computer in highschool in 2005 were dual BFG Tech 6800 ultra’s in SLI. I remember thinking they were INSANE. lol. 512MB VRAM each!

If you play old school games using physx, that GPU is pretty valuable, nice find

Why? It’s likely left over stock the store held onto, one of my favorite electronics stores still had Socket 3 coolers well into the first half of the 00’s and nearly 2 years ago found 5 sealed ATi All-in-Wonder Radeon X1900 256MB being offloaded on eBay from a store that possibly held onto them for up to 17 years.
