I know it's ivy bridge. Do you happen to have the retail box? If so, could I have a picture of the main label that has the numbers and barcodes? That will have the batch number in it.

What batch is that 3570k? I might be interested!

Oooh, what kind?

I'm currently working on a deal for a 7970. I'd rather not have multiple transactions for expensive cards going at once. If that card doesn't sell, we can work out a deal after I finish this transaction.

Not so much. My main focus is on 7970's. The other cards don't have nearly the performance of a good 7970 on liquid nitrogen.

You don't know very much about computer circuitry, do you?

I can't tell you exactly what it was, but memory clock is probably the culprit. Resistors don't just burn. If they do, then the circuit would no longer be complete, and your hardware would be unquestionably dead.

Pm incoming.

Thank you.

Bump!

Well I suppose a picture is better than none. When you say scratched, do you mean damaged components, or cut traces (damage to the actual circuit board)?

Could I have a good picture of the back? Good meaning not from a camera phone.

Yes, thank you.

Any way you could get 20k ohm trimmers as well?

Bump!

$250-$275 for reference 7970's
$275-$325 for nice 7970's
$400-$475 for Nice 680's
$225-$250 for Nice 580's

Show me the offers!

I must say, once you put custom firmware on these things, they are not bad little gaming machines for trips and such. I've got a PSP-2001 with M33 firmware and I love playing games on it. Great open source development behind these machines. Not a bad price either!

I started out using dry ice. There are various containers which you can buy for either graphics cards or processors which hold whatever your frozen medium is. In the case of dry ice, you add acetone (or 90%+ isopropyl alcohol to aid the transfer of heat energy). I just recently purchased a 150L liquid nitrogen dewar though, because in the world of sub-zero cooling, colder is better. In some rare cases, people use liquid helium, but that presents a few more issues than controlling condensation.

Dry ice runs ~$1/lb and is at ~-80*C.
Liquid Nitrogen runs ~$1.50/L and is at -196*C
Liquid Helium runs anywhere from hundreds to thousands for a single session, but it's the coldest liquid used at -269*C (4*C from absolute zero).

Ah, dang! I was getting excited. LOL Thanks for the information though. I looked them up and they are very nice stations.

Bumparoo!

PM sent.

What kind of tips do you have, what condition is the unit in (has it been taken care of, or has it just been collecting dust in the open?), and what are you looking to get for it?
