Title: [closed] [WTS] 13 ATI 5870s with fans and shrouds removed
Post by: rjk on July 03, 2012, 06:13:34 PM
ALL SOLD

I have 13 HD 5870s with the fan and the plastic shrouds removed. They are a huge pain in the ass to remove and put back on, so I can send you the parts and you can put them back together if you want to. All cards are guaranteed against DOA. Shipping is included.

They should be worth $160 assembled, easily, so I'll ask $145 each unassembled like this. Pay in BTC or Dwolla. Take all of them in a package for $1700.

Warning: If you plan to run these as they are with no plastic shroud or fan, you need to have a very good understanding of airflow, ducting, and how things work thermally in general. Otherwise, you will run into problems with hot spots and overheating.

Shrouds and blower fans will be included unless you don't want them.

ALL SOLD

Yeah... when the 7990 went *poof* and became nothing more than a dream, that took away the chances of this rig ever reaching 20+ Gh/s. Combine that with looming ASICs that will produce double that in a small space, and it makes video cards worthless.

Maybe I can still use it for something else, I dunno.

Shoot, that's a bit of a discount. I'll need to package them up too, so I can figure out the weight. I was hoping to make something closer to $1500 for the lot, does anyone else want to make an offer?

I'm curious how you cooled the cards with the fans off? any pics?

Agreed. $145 isn't very far off when it comes to a fair price especially since it takes a whopping 3 minutes to get the fan on and running again... which leads me to a question:

Do the shroud and fan assemblies come with all the screws?

$100 each is $1,300 ($1,250 after shipping) to offload unused equipment.  Or $1,250 to stick in an investment account at 2.5% - 7% weekly interest.

Check my sig for the rig they came from. I used Delta PFC1212DE fans.

I have the screws in a pile, and I'm just putting them into the shrouds to be sure they are all there.
The fans all have their screws.

All screws are present and correct, for the plastic bits. 2 cards pending sale for $125 each with shipping.

That is a radical price, 145, jaw dropping price. Should sell quick, I'd say.

I would like to buy at least one (if you would do just one), but I am waiting for Dwolla to transfer to an exchange, then I can buy in BTC.

I need to search for some more antistatic bags and packaging materials and boxes. Unfortunately, I seem to be short some of those.

Coins received, will ship today.

7 cards remaining, would rather sell as many as possible at once, will take $125 each firm including shipping. Might be a little extra shipping if any of you Canuckistanians want in. ;D

38BTC for two shipped? Should be right around your price target.  Would you be able to mail this weekend?

Sorry I forgot to update this. zvs is asking for 2 of them and Leezyist wants the other 5, but neither have paid yet. I won't be able to ship until Monday or Tuesday at the latest because I need to find some packaging and stuff.

No problem.  If the deal falls through PM me.  thanks!

I also would like in on these, if the other deals fall thru.

I can pay right now.

Are the remaining 5 up for grabs or are you waiting on Leezyist?

Leezyist says he is waiting on BTC-e, but also wishes to use an escrow, however he hasn't told me who the escrow is supposed to be, and only responds to messages once every 12 hours or so, so it it really slow going. At this point I just want to get rid of them but I don't want to be a shady seller by pulling the rug out from someone that has a deal going. What do you guys think?

Repetition is key.  $120 shipped.  I would give him time anything that isn't bit floor takes forever.

Post by: kibblesnbits on July 07, 2012, 08:48:48 PM
I have an interest in the outcome, so I won't comment or complain on the decision on seller.

I'll do 39BTC for two, I'll go first, and I can have the BTC in your wallet upon your "go".

OK, payment received from Leezyist - http://blockchain.info/tx-index/11536624/1f0bfe2b7cccd07e5d06b0ba3232ac0ab415a8253d7ca667f6bce5ffe0cb2d0d

Actually since the exchange rate has gone up, I'll be refunding 4 pretty soon.

rjk is an excellent guy and anyone doing business with him should have no worries of nothing else but a smooth transaction.

Sad that (supposed) ASICs killed this awesome rig (that I built a fan controller for).

Ahh well, +1 for rjk, he's a good guy.

I still have the fans and the controller, and they still work. I might be able to use them in a different project, maybe something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSllkFWVhJI
