I found a complete computer system in the trash. Upon some poking around, it turns out the vid card dont work. Its a BFG FX5500 256mb AGP card. I already have a RMA number, but it will cost about $10 to ship. It appears from Ebay that they sell for about 15 plus shipping.

I just sold a X700pro AGP card on Craigslist for $40..... But not sure I can get the same money.

I have no need for the card.. should I just trash it and save myself the trouble?

anybody want it??

I would RMA it.

Odds are that you will get a much newer one in return.
Unlikely they have anything that old lying around.
