Selling:

- Sapphire 5850 (looks like this one: https://www1.sapphiretech.com/us/gallery/img/559/11162-00-20_HD5850_1GBGDDR5_PCIE_C01.JPG )
- MSI 5850 TwinFrozr II dual fan, super silent card.
- 5850 Reference card (I think by powercolor, not 100% sure)
- 5870 Reference (XFX, fan replacement underway, see below brand new fan installed)
PCI-E 16x cables can be thrown in as well.

MSI and Powercolor 5850s clock ~900 Mhz stock voltage, sapphire  does ~875 .
The 5870 does ~950 Mhz stock voltage

Never overvolted, never ran above 70C.

The 5870 is waiting for a replacement fan which is on its way from Hong Kong. I ordered it 2 weeks ago, it could get here any moment, or  it could be a few more weeks before it gets here. You can bid for it without fan, or with brand new fan if you are willing to wait.
New fan installed.

Shipping across EU at your expense. I will look up rates when I receive acceptable offers.
Accepting BTC only, willing to do escrow.

Lets hear your bids

I'd be interested in all of them with the cables and the replacement fan. I'd offer 100 per 5850 and 120 for the 5870. I'll pay in btc or usd. I'm located in the US.

I wont lie, thats a generous bid, even if you are bidding dollars which I assume.
Id have to weigh them to be sure, but I think for ~1 btc I can ship them in one box which makes for almost exactly 10 BTC total. Shipping would take ~5 days.
As for the fan, it still hasnt arrived and I cant say if it will be a few more days or a few more weeks,  you would have it much quicker if I just a buy you a new fan on ebay thats shipped from the US. If you buy all my cards, id be glad to.

I am offering USD, sorry forgot you are a EU user. I am researching the cards more since I posted and I would like to resubmit my bid as $90usd per 5850 and $110 for the 5870's. I am not trying to lowball or go back on my offer, I just noticed that they are going for cheaper than I remembered now elsewhere.  1 btc for shipping in one box seems fair. Do you have any mobo's or risers or extension cables or anything as well?

You are going back on  your offer, but as I said, it was generous and this one still seems fair still.

As for riser cables; I have 4 PCIe 16x to 16x cables and  two 16x to 1x cables (to use in a pcie 1x slot)
If you buy the whole lot for the above price, I will add them for free on top of the new fan for the 5870. Or we deduct the price of the fan and you order it yourself.

As for motherboards, there is only one I can offer, a socket S775  asus  P5N32-E SLI which has 3 PCIe16 slots and 1 PCIe1 slot. It will come either with no cpu, or an old Pentium 4 3 GHz (which works fine, but I wouldnt recommend using it if you pay for electricity). There is 1.5 GB ram installed. This board is running now for 4 months without reboots with the three 5850s.

I have a Q6600 LGA775, are these the same sockets?

yeah same socket, and its supported by the mb according to this:
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5N32E_SLI/#support_CPU

edit: may need a bios update, not sure what version it has.

less of a power grab than the P4 you think?

The q6600 is in my daily use computer but I have been looking for an excuse to upgrade.

Under load they will be somewhat close, but the C2Q should idle considerably lower.
Anyway, thats your choice. Ill add the p4 so you have something that works, you can always replace it later. But id rather not send the cooler, because its massive copper beast.

The new fan for the 5870 has arrived and is installed. Applied some fresh MX4 and thermal pads and its hashing again like new. As it will keep doing until one of the window shoppers actually buys it :)

 2x 5850 and 700W OCZ PSU sold to Uuno.
Payment received; tracking number supplied.

Ill probably hang on to the rest of the cards.

Still selling the 5870 or no :)? UK buyer might be interested......

I live in Greece, and im interested in those cards, pm me a reasonable price

EDIT: (for both, including shipping, and for each, including shipping)
Agreed on using John(mod here) as escrow?

Malaka..... :D :D

I lived in Paros for 2 years, beautiful country & amazing people, many good friends there still.

Peace to you  ;)

lol nice, but still whats the price???

EDIT: Soz, i thought you were op (for some reason  :D)

No, Im going to keep the remaining cards for now.

 :D :D :D :D :D

And the package arrived today. Thank you.

Im sorry it took so long. Two weeks is completely unacceptable, I could ride there on my bicycle in less time. Will never use TNT again.
ANyway, enjoy the cards.
