Title: [SOLD] Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 7970, and thermal compound
Post by: CrazyGuy on October 20, 2012, 03:49:54 AM
Selling a barely used Accellero Xtreme 7970 and 3 tubes of thermal compound that have been kept in the fridge.
Take it all for http://btcticker.appspot.com/mtgox/45usd.png

Some of the memory heatsinks are missing from the 7970 cooler as they were firmly attached to a 7970 PCB I sold a while back, so you may need to purchase some new ones.

I'm interested, but I can't make an offer without knowing how much the missing heatsinks would cost.  Which one are they in this picture and how many?

Also, I presume I can use my own Arctic Silver-5 correct? Is half of one tube enough for all the applications?

I would recommend a ceramic based grease for the memory and other components. If you are applying to a 7970, some of the surfaces are extremely small and you may risk shorting some of the leads surrounding them(like I did...) Silver is fine for the GPU.

Here's what is left in the kit:

6 different heatsink types in your image. I'll number them 1-6 going left to right top to bottom.

Missing-
2 of number 2
4 of number 3
1 of number 4
11 of number 5
3 of number 6

Here's a guy selling pretty much all of the heatsinks in the kit on ebay for $12.19

Here's a pic of the missing heatsinks applied to the 7970 PCB I sold:

The ebay heatsink post is $11 + $5 shipping ($16).

Your cooler + thermal paste is $60.

Altogether that is $76.

If I were to buy this new from mwave, it would be $70 + $9.29 shipping so say $80 http://www.mwave.com/mwave/SKUSearch.asp?px=FO&scriteria=AA82255

I don't really need this item you're selling, but I'll offer you (for the whole thing) $35 shipped.

I've updated with a guy selling the same heatsinks for 12.19 with free ship. He also includes the stock thermal paste. I am also selling sans thermal paste for $50. So you are talking $62.19 vs $80. Plus, mwave doesn't accept bitcoins ;D

If you can wait till the morning for me to send payment, (access to wallet and confirmation from partner to purchase with our joint business funds which is basically a technicallity, we are looking to actually order one of these from Newegg this week!) I would take this off your hands at the $45 @ Mt Gox price.  LMK! :)

Sure, just let me know when you're ready.

Sounds good.  :)

I'm 99.9999% sure he will be fine with it, but since its not technically all my money - I like to be sure we both say yes before spending any of it.  We were going to order one from Newegg this week so when we find a deal on another 7970 we're all set.   Then I stumbled on your ad!

I'll probably talk to him by 10:00 am CST.  So I should have the btc to you roughly 9 hours from now or less.

Thanks!

So it just dawned on me that I forgot to follow up with a message in this thread to let everyone know CrazyBlane is a great guy to deal with!  I wouldn't even hesitate about sending funds to him first when purchasing from him!  Great guy, great communication, and even when he has a human moment and forgets to shoot you part of your order - he immediately follows up with options to get you exactly what you wanted!

I hope I get the pleasure of doing business with him again!
