-one says AG with a red circle with AN and 14 in it
-the other ones are bar codes, that i can post up too

thanks alot
 
Easy challenge would be an oxymoron. Hard challenge is redundant.

Having cleared that up, you're going to have to help us more here. Or just cut to the chase yourself. I can see an FCC logo at the rear top of the card. Go to the FCC website and you can use the FCC ID to find out what it is. I can also see an Asus logo, which leads me to believe it's more likely an nVidia-based card, possibly something in the MX2 class, since there's no fan on the heatsink.
 
Whats on the long white label, third picture? And you can always take the heatsink off and remount it with thermal paste. Put it in a machine as well?
 
at BEST a 9000 128mb, or the re-dubbed 8500 LE, or such maybe a 7000-7500.

To me with that ASUS logo, looks like a GeForce4 MX440 or such.

Looks like this except with more memory.

That's gotta be it then. All the capacitors are in the exact same spots. I now change my vote to something in the 9200 family.
 
My Friend has a card similar-looking and im thinking possible a 9250 or 9250se, i used to have an se before i sold it and got my X800 :D but i recognize the RAM.
 
Yea im pretty sure its a 9250 in some form or another.

well...now that i look at the picture above it looks like a regular 9200 but with the amount of RAM the 9250 has.
 
Looking at it all I'd have to say it's a non-se 9200, looking at the 9200se pic you can see that it has less ram modules but probably the same amount of ram. Thus you must conclude from former knowledge that that asus picture is a 9200se (64bit ram) but since the original pic has the regular amount of ram instead of half the ram modules like the 9200, then it must be a normal 9200 128bit version, probability is high.

Thanks Adam! if you need anything just say so, i work with computers solving hardware problems for 10 years now, that gives me a small "database" to help anyone who needs it.
i believe that sharing experience and helping people are close to the best things in life.

That is a DVI port, for monitors that use that type of connection (typically flat-panel LCDs and TFTs, but some CRTs use them too).
