Offer $210 shipped to Aus. Only have paypal though... Thoughts?

They're pretty damn difficult to repair, yeah, but I like a challenge. When it's just something like the VRMS, they don't appear TOO hard to detach with a heat gun and the right solder tip.

Fixed a 5770 two years ago by reflowing it in the oven and replacing capacitor. Have a 290 at the moment that I bought for $40 with a blown VRM, just waiting on a few VRMs being sent from DigiKey in the US to try and replace it *fingers crossed*

Hey all,  I'm looking for dead 280x, 290 or 290x, preferably just blown caps but will consider other issues.

Not planning on using for mining, just tinkering and building up a dual/tri/quad crossfire rig.

Located in Brisbane, Australia.

Let me know what you have and preferably a picture of the damaged area and a price / postage.

Cheers,
Scott

Hi guys, I'm new here but given how many people do mining with 290/290x I thought it would be a worthwhile place to ask. I'm looking for dead 290 or 290x, preferably just blown caps but will consider other issues.
