Title: 5870, dead fan
Post by: notme on July 21, 2012, 12:26:32 PM
I've got a 5870 with blown fan bearings.  I was home at the time so it was shut down within 1 minute of when it started screaming.  I will update with more details later tonight (brand, etc), but it was happily chugging along at 380-400 MH/s when the fan died.  It should be fine once you replace the fan, but I will make no guarantees since you will be responsible for properly replacing it (make sure you have some thermal paste handy).  Anyway, bidding starts at 3 BTC and the price will include professional packaging and shipping to any US state except Alaska or Hawaii.  I will ship anywhere in the world, but pm me your address for the premium.

i might be interested, but it should still be able to run even w/ a dead fan.

i was running a gigabyte 5870 w/o a fan for a couple days @ 600/150 0.95v with just a floor fan blowing into the case.  If you don't want to remove the fan, you can just block it with a piece of paper or something so it doesn't spin up.

I'd rather just sell it than risk running it without a fan.  It's a diamond branded card, like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814103084 .

2 hours to go, miaviator currently winning with a bid of 10 BTC.  If you live in France, you will pay bid + 10 BTC.  Shipping over there is crazy expensive.

Tracking number shows it arrived safe and sound a few days after I shipped it.  I just wanted to check and make sure you got it alright.

Thanks for checking, yes after putting in a fan it has been happily hashing away with no problems.
