I doubt many (if any) people here are going to have engineering samples lol. At best, Chris Angelini would but I can't say I've seen him post anywhere but on his article comments. Would be cool though to see more!

 

[yjfy]

Chris Angelini?

 

[wolfram23]

He runs Tom's Hardware

Hmmm, indeed.

I think I have an engineer's sample GTX 460. It has no stickers on it and just says NVIDIA, and it's the only GTX 460 1GB I have ever seen that only has one 6 pin PCI-E power connector.

I have some really old Voodoo,tridents,MX440 type stuff laying around
I dont know why I dont throw them away
I actually had ISA soundcards until recently when I scrapped them LOL

Now my city has E-Waste collections where you have to call the sanitation
dept to come pick up hds,mobos etc

I used to give them to the scrappers driving around
but I dont trust them to rip out what they want and throw the rest in the park


It is nice to see somebody that has a cool collection like that

I cant get rid of my 2gb Quantum Fireball HD
It just makes me smile

The cards fell flat on the audience,Nobody likes it.

Please show your engineering sample of Graphic card.

how should i know if my graphic card it´s a engineering sample?

i bought one asus hd 7870 dcII and in windows 7 in gpu-z the information was "AMD Radeon 7800 series (engineering Sample)", but now i´m using windows 8( the preview version) and that information has disappear with the new drivers. is there another way to know if it is a engineering sample?

NO
