[FS] ATI X800 video card

I've bought a new video card (Nvidia 7900GTO). Is anyone interested in buying my ATI X800? It still is one of the fastest AGP-based videocards around, so for people with older PCs (ie. not made in 2006), it's the best option.

I'm interested.
How much are you looking for?

It's an Asus X800 256Mb, with the TV/video in/out options.
It's labelled as a Pro, but this was the Asus model that was actually an underclocked XT PE with the same core and memory.
So full 16 pipes (normal Pros had 12), and runs fine at 500 MHz GPU, 1GHz RAM.
You can overclock it to full PE speed, but I run it at the normal speeds.

Looking for 75 pounds. Comes with assorted adaptors and cables for the VI/VO and DVI. Originally cost over £400.

I gather you had a hectic weekend, so its probably slipped your mind. However, I just wondered if you were interested in the card at that price, or not?

You're welcome to make an offer, too. I just thought I'd check where you were at before I put it up on ebay.

They are new(ish) on EBay for 75 + 15P&P, so 75 without P&P from a trusted source looks like a good price to me.
I can give you the money now if you like, but could be defer delivery until after I have moved?
I'm going to be hectic until then anyway :*(

Sure, I'd always rather avoid ebay if I can help it. I'll hang onto the card - just let me know when you're ready, and we can do the trade then.

cheers
