I bought this card a week ago and have decided that it just eats up too much space in my case to justify having it. It comes with a Scythe Musashi aftermarket air cooler already installed, with the aluminum ramsinks supplied with it. (See my review on it here (http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19146).)

Here's all that comes with it:

Everything that came with it a week ago. :) Card, driver disc, manual, all the various cords and connectors, etc etc. The original heat sink is also included, though I honestly can't say if it works or not, as I replaced it before I even put it in my machine. I see no reason why it wouldn't.

Buyer, be advised that I have removed the dual speed control from the cooler. The fans run at only 100%, which is still quiet for this thing. The controller is included, and can be easily reattached with a little solder.

Price is $150 USD, shipping is included within the continental US. I'll ship it anywhere, but outside that area will cost more.

<crickets chirping>

Hmmmmm......

Ok, how about $125 shipped and I'll solder the fan controls back on and test it?

I think that's what's killing this mate - you'll probably get more interest if you were selling a "100% working but surplus to requirements" ....

You've probably got a point. But at this price, if no one wants it I'll just keep it and get a bigger case. :)

I think he was saying, correct me if I am wrong, that he doesn't know if the original heatsink works as he has never used it; the card itself works beautifully. Well that is what I got out of it.

Who has ever bought a gpu and not had the fan on the stock heatsink work? Plus it comes with a Musashi, so either way you get a perfectly good card.

Bump for the cause: I'd consider it, but between the GTX280 in one rig, and the 8800GTS pumping away on the other (15" screen so an upgrade wouldn't help much at all) I don't need another high end card.

Well, actually I may soon, but not that high end. I want to grab an SG05/9300itx wifi, but I wouldn't want to shove more than a 4770/4850 in there.

It does come with the Musashi, so I suppose that would increase the price a bit. But it may be tough for some to justify, when you can grab the Sapphire 1GB for 5$ more on newegg with fs, or get the powercolor 512 for 117 ar with STALKER.

That's correct, the card and the Musashi cooler work perfectly, I just don't have the room for them.

Ok, one more time. Still the above hardware for sale, but *now* I'm thowing in a Switftech MCW60 water block and a set of Enzotech forged copper ramsinks. The block was purchased during Xoxide's recent fire sale and has never been used. All the barbs and clamps come with it in the original packaging.

Also included are the stock air cooler and the Scythe Musashi mentioned above. It can be yours for the low low price of $150 USD plus shipping.

(To be clear, the above pic shows two cards, this sale is for one, the pic is to show the block and ramsinks.)


COMBO DEAL!! Get this hardware and this brand new 600-watt modular PSU (http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20568) for $200 total.
