I've looked all over but can't seem to figure out exactly what card I have. It's an old one, and I can't remember. Based upon the ramsinks I think it's either an nvidia or pny card. Any help is appreciated otherwise i'll just have to put it in my machine to see.

    Looks like a Jaton TI4200 to me.

    It looks older than that, I don't think the TI4200's had the extra connectors on board.

    I dunno, I had a Jaton Ti4200 in a workbench PC at the tech support job I was at and it looked just like that as far as I can remember. Been a while though.

    Looks like a GeForce 3 Ti200 to me since it has the option header and the same style of sinks as on my Ti500 but a different reference layout. You could always just plug it into a computer and read the BIOS string or see what Windows XP detects it as.

    Ah ha! It is Geforce 3 series Card.

    Visiontek - "Board Stuffing", that's what the industry affectionately calls what the folks at Visiontek do as their core business unit. Otherwise known as "Contract Manufacturing", in a nut shell, Visiontek will take a customer's "Bill of Materials" also known as a BOM (lots of new lingo here eh?), procure the raw parts (chips and circuit boards) and then assemble the product. At that point they may even box it up and ship it to their customer's end customer. This way, companies like Elsa or Hercules for example, can concentrate on designing and marketing next generation products and leave the manufacturing process to a company that is focused on that one aspect and most likely better equipped for it.

    They only deal with ATI now....

    Here is info on your Card:

    Name: Visiontek GeForce3
    Driver series: XX.XX Detonator drivers "11.01 should do"
    Core: 200Mhz
    Memory: 500Mhz

    This card was around when Quake 3 was out... if you have any other questions feel free to ask :)

    Comparing the two I see quite a few differences in the SMC components and a few of the caps.

    Edit: Ah, A GF2 Ultra2, that explains the differences...

    I have found 14 versions of this one card "VisionTek GeForce2 Ultra" thus far. It looks like this card had a few revisions
