since the last 2 months have been real bad to me cash wise. and now i am short for my property tax for this yr. i need to sell this great card which i was going to sell then when my 285 went bad it showed me it wasnt ready to leave me. but now i have no choice in the natter i need to sell it. and i am thinking of adding my back up key board a merc stealth which is still brand new in the box and has never been removed from it either.

i know i for got my name tag in the pictures but that is my big claw and my big xxxxl corepad mouse pad im not to sure how many people would buy those. even though i want to buy another 1 right now mine worn out lol. but back to topic. the gfx cards will come as shown with the after market cooler installed and i will not separate them either. to much of a hassle in doing so. beside that cooler is the best around! i want one for my 285 when they come out in the US and if i can pay for it after i get my property taxes paid that is.

im going to post it in craigs list and start out at $200 maybe $225 +ship and see how the 1st wk goes. but i really don't want to go no lower then $200 since im short more then that over all. but im working on more stuff to add to sell yet. got other things to do yet beside this , dam insurance!! i hate dealing with them :evil:

Crhis if you need me to post pic with my name tag in them i will , just hold my topic till i get them upload then.

WOW Scavy!!

That's a Killer card and a Great deal, I have my 8800GTS640 too, I keep for a back up card. All I need.

Funny I love those Core-pads too, but I've had my 14" X18" X Track Ripper for like 4 years now, and it's still going strong.

Best Mouse Pad I ever Bought. HJ I think has a Core Pad as well. They seem SWEET too!! Mine goes to the Edge of my Desk

and I have Blue painters tape hold the Edge Down so I don't tear it up, works great, Man that's a SWEET 8800GTX768

had I not got my GTX260, I'd be interested. I bet you Hate to Sell it!! I know how much time you took Tricking it out!! ;)

I'm waiting for the Next Kick A$$ NV Cards to come, wish I owned a Home, I just rent. Been here for ten years now, I should own

the place!! But you can't take a House with you, and my place has a Garage and Washer and Dryer room etc. It's more like a Condo

really, I love the place!! Old as Hell, build like a TANK!! :mrgreen: The walls are like Concrete OMG!!

Man I ended up paying 437 bucks for my 8800GTS640, but it's a Great card. Always has worked perfect, like my GTX260.

Or maybe I'll wait for you to sell your GTX285, LOL!! Shouldn't be long. He, Heeeeee!! But then again you've had your 8800GTX

for a long time huh? I don'y know, I'm happy with my GTX260 like Chris. I'm into games more than cards. I guess. :eek:

No, I just can't afford to BUY these new cards all the time. I should do it like HJ does, on E-Bay, he does it right, knows when to sell and

buy etc. Smart Cookie. :grin: Wish I was good with E-Bay too, I just don't like E-Bay for some odd reason? Stupid I know. I like Amazon!!

New Egg. Fry's.

Blue

Long post huh, well I'm getting used to Firefox, learning more and more every day!! Love it!! :clapping:

ah just now using FF uh? Ive been a long time user for many yrs now. IE only for windblows update. but i love the spell checker in FF best thing that happen for me :9: i even got the advance weather plug for it as well, so i can tell whats going on with my weather all the time. no need to open a new tab or anything. i just pan down or put the pointer over the radar box and poof i can see what the Doppler is doing . and it is accue weather and not weather channel garbage.

back to topic, yeah i really don't want to get rid of it at all its been tried and true for these yrs now. and with this cooler on it it stays cold no matter what the temp is in my room. i paid around $650 for mine when i got mine since thats when they 1st came out lol. but yeah i would like to keep it around for a spare in case anything happens like it did just last wk.since when the tech guys goes well could you try this or this, ill go well i stuck my old card in and it works with no problem but your card it does nothing but black screen.

so when this sell i wont be able to do that. or if i happen to find a cheap 939 AMD mobo with ddr400 ram type i wouldn't be able to build it into my new back up rig either. since that was going to be just that. since that 8800GTX was ran so dam well and has played so many games i could do that but after all of this. i now have no choice but to sell it.

well i have the stock cooler is all clean up, the fan blades i went threw them all. and then i went threw the fan blade on the cooler on the gfx card it self to. clean all the fine dust off of it to so it looks nice clean. it only took a few minute to do that any ways since i do that every month as it is.

well i ecowoker just had me install it in there system today. they had 2 fxf 9600 cso 768mb in sli. and he has had but nothing but trouble since he got it. he has been messing with ever since he got it to. and i have been trying to help him from time to time to. but last night i told him that i was selling the 8800gtx. so i get a call today. well after cleaning up his rig. which need it bad and since he put this together him self.

he had 1 fan on backwards to boot. which point at the cpu which is why it ran so warm/hot . well he also told me that after getting his system to work in sli for once for the 1st time in over the last few months. it stopped working again. so he came over after cleaning the cables up and shoe horning it in.

got it all working for him and rivatuner working and the tweak auto fan setting going for him as well. and before that the gfx card sat at 42C with stock auto setting and went up to 54C whne i ran furmark on it with it set to the over clock i use on it. 648 core/1516shader/1003memory his q6600 is still stock yet no OC yet. i dont know 680i and from what i saw in it from disabling the C1E function and turning off the realtech HD audio off. no wonder he had troubles with it since he has a sound card as well.

well it sure runs good now for him i even set up some over clock in riva for him as well. and save them for him to. sold for what i was asking as well. wish i didnt though but oh well property taxs need it more then i do..

How much did you get for it Scavy? If you got $200, you did extremely well, even with the Accelero installed. Right now a brand new XFX GTX 260 Core 216 is going for only $170 with free shipping, game, and lifetime warranty.

or the just launched EVGA GTX 275 for only $249 ...
