Title: Free shipping: Sapphire 4870 - $75, Corsair vx550w - $60, USB thermometer - $8
Post by: Chris Acheson on May 31, 2011, 09:16:59 PM
My room is not big enough for the both of us.  The noise made me consider selling.  The heat finally convinced me.

I'm selling off my mining rig's parts and turning it back into the mild-mannered computer that it once was.  Prices are listed in USD, but will be settled in BTC.  I'm willing to use Clearcoin or Paypal/Dwolla if you can provide good trade references.  Please post questions and offers in this thread.

Here's what I've got left:

Sapphire 4870 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102849) - $75
Not an amazing mining card, but not too shabby either.  Includes box and all accessories.  About 95 mh/s when overclocked to stock limits.  Free standard shipping within the US.

Corsair VX550W (http://www.corsair.com/power-supplies/non-modular-psus/enthusiast-series-1/vx550w.html) - $60
High-quality single rail power supply.  Free priority shipping within the US.

They're about a month old and I bought them new from TigerDirect, so presumably.  I haven't looked into the details of the warranty.

sapphire warren ties are non-transferable. They'll become suspicious when the address on the invoice does not match your return address.

I've sent out the 5970 and the 5850s.  The Diamond 5870 and the OCZ power supply are spoken for.  I've also decided to keep one of the x1 PCIe extenders, the rest are still available.

Lowered the price on the 4870 from $75 to $65.  Selling the the 6/6+2-pin connectors and the pin extractor as a package deal with free shipping.  Free shipping on the USB thermometer now too.

Can I PLEASE have some more pictures of your rig? I want to see how those cards are suspended and such.

Unfortunately that's the only picture I have, and it's not set up that way any more.

I got a 100-pack of 12" zip ties from harbor freight.  Each card is suspended with two pairs of ties, each pair daisy-chained together.  The Diamond 5870 was on top, suspended from the fan grill on top of the case.  The next set of ties held the 5970, looping around the Diamond and through another set of holes at the top of the case.  The next three sets of ties looped through the set above, and held the other three cards roughly parallel to the ground, so that their riser cables could reach.
