I am seeing all the other GTX460s need 2x PCIe 6 pin and a double slot cooler, so I guess the card I saw must have been more on the 210/8400 side. The 210/8400 is hard to distinguish often also, seems like the GPU chip must either be pin compatible or 210s are just basically a BIOS softmod of 8400 or something.

IIRC the GT210 was a refresh of one of the 9000 series cards

8400GS. The GT218S chipset used in the G210 was basically a die-shrink of the G98 based 8400GS "Rev.2", which in turn was based off the 9300 I think.

Yeah nVidia refreshes back then were a mess.

unfortunately I could find almost no information whatsoever about this monitor ... but it has a composite and SCART rgb input, apparently supports both 50&60Hz according to the controls and seems to have a green text mode, I guess it's from the mid-eighties?
edit: that particular style sanyo logo was used up until 1987 apparently... so sometime before that ^^
edit2: it seems to be very similar to the Sanyo CD3195C that has a bit more info online but is lacking RGB input and the 50/60Hz selector.

I just really like the industrial design, which is the main reason I got it.

I wish I could find a manual how to remove the front glass holders, cause the top right one seems to be mounted upside down, and I don't want to break anything ^^
edit2: ah it's in the CD3195C manual ...fixed 😀

Hi! Bought the same Snayo but without the front glass. Can you tell me if it is a glass or plastic? What is the thickness of the glass? Thanks

Got some stuff today. The most interesting though, is these screens and video cards/interface cards.

From some kind of "industrial" PC, like a casino game? Very interesting video card. It uses the SCSI output to the monitor input. Luckily the box had three screens and three cards. I tested the first one and it has video output! Pretty neat! Hope it can run DOOM, 🤣 It can barely run the BIOS, 🤣
