Title: Bricked GPU's - what's the possibilities? Post by: coin123123 on July 06, 2017, 10:55:48 PM I got 4 bricked 280x GPU's which I cant RMA so what can I do with them?
only thing I thought of is taking fans from them if my working GPU's fans fail Title: Re: Bricked GPU's - what's the possibilities? Post by: Juggar on July 06, 2017, 11:38:17 PM Sell them AS-IS untested on ebay listed as "For parts or not working"
