[closed] [WTS] 13 ATI 5870s with fans and shrouds removed

[rjk]

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.


Cards with plastic removed


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?

100 is like 5850 prices...

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

100 is like 5850 prices...

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.

Pending deal for 6 Cards.

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.
