I understand. Shipping across the ocean is a pain.

How much do you charge to fix video cards? I have a 5970 (not one you gave me) that will sometimes have a red light come up underneath the board by the PCI-E power connectors after some time of mining (maybe a minute, maybe an hour, maybe a week), and it freezes the entire computer, need to hard power off the entire computer before its detected again.
Just kinda fishing to see if its worth sending it out for a real reflow instead of baking in my oven (I still dont know if 8 minutes at 400F is working for me or not).
Edit without bumping: Hopefully, I may have jumped the gun about the gpu's actually going bad. I found one of my PCI-E power splitters taking on a brown tinge. I examined it closer and 2 of the 12v wires were darkened significantly. The middle wire was flawless, so power was probably only being supplied through 2 hot wires compared to 3 cool wires. Good thing I have lots of spares and also redid the wiring on that miner so all the 8 pin power plugs come directly from the power supply and the remaining 2 PCI-E power plugs get split into 4 and plug into the 6-pin power receptacles. Hopefully that works out better.

Been asked several times about repairs so I thought I'd throw it out here for everone to see:
I will try and repair any card someone wants to send to me.
If there is no major damage to it... I.E. scorch marks or tons of missing capacitors I charge $20 to look at it and I charge an extra $20 if I can fix it.
The buyer pays shipping both ways.
Things I repair:
Artifacting graphics cards
Cards that won't cut on
Missing Capacitors
Blown capacitors
Broken fans... etc.
Some repairs may be more but I will allways tell you before you ship it to me
I use a hot air gun, heat pencil/mini heatgun, and a calibrated oven to do reflows depending on what is required.
*** Please understand that all repair solutions are not created equal and that the likelyhood of my repairs working depends greatly on the problem with the card***
The chance of my fixes working also greatly increase with the ammount of information about the card I recieve beforehand. High resolution pictures of any damage are also a necessity.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Given a description of the problems and pictures of any damage I can usually give you a rough estimate of the likelyhood of my being able to repair it.
I also make no guarantee on how long repairs work. It is impossible for me to warranty a video card that is several years old. I do however guarantee the card arriving back to you as I described it (whether repaired or not). Pictures are allways great ideas for both ends of a transaction.
Thanks guys, Andrew

I have a 9800 GT with artifacts. I can still see enough to boot go through the BIOS, but windows won't load. PM with your pricing and I'll be able to get pictures to you tonight.
Located on the East Coat, USA.

I got a Asus 6870 DirectCU that broke on me last summer. Computer wouldn't boot, sometime it would post and show graphics but with a lot of artifacts then just to reboot after 1 minute. Not sure if totally broken.
I also got a Nvidia Geforce 8600GTS or something like that, dunno if it works, dropped it on concrete floor once.
Interested in any of those? I think shipping would be about 3.2BTC at todays rate if you are outside of Sweden.

Are you still buying?
I have an AMD 5870. The fan stopped working and I replaced it with an Accelero X Treme artic cooling fan, which works fine.
However, my electricity is too expensive, so I have no further use for the card. I can provide pictures etc if required.
Are you interested?
What sort or price would you offer. I will be shipping from UK.
Please PM me if interested.
