Free waterblocked 4870

britboy4321 · 24 Dec 2009 at 13:11

Don't get too excited just yet!

I am 99.5% certain that my 4870 (1gb) has blown up. Dead as a doughnut. But I might be wrong.

It has a waterblock attached to it (and no fan). The waterblock is attached correctly and this wasn't the reason for it stopping working. You could maybe rip it off the card and ebay it (??) or somehow save the card as well? dunno. Annoyed me and I've gone and bought a 5 series ..

no packaging or anything.

If you want it, it's yours. I'll want just 3 quid or something to pay for postage (Mods, this is NOT a sale -- this is a gift). Basically I either give it to you or lob it in the bin .. fancy it?

If there's an inundation of replies I'll pick someone at random later on -- otherwise (less than 5 replies) I'll just 'first come, first served' it. Remember I'll be asking for a whopping £3 before I send the thing .. and don't expect it to arrive for a while yet because of Christmas ..

lol nope the original conditions stay -- buy your girl a cuzza with your tenner!

Not saying you won't get it -- but still saying I'm gonna choose completely at random (roll of dice if less than 6 interested)

I'll choose at 3pm, but won't be sending until about 28th ...

I'll take it please, got a stock cooler for a 4870 here

Well, our boss is letting us go soon so the grand winner is being decided now.

And by pure luck -- well done BLAINEOLIVER

Send us your details (privately) most important = delivery address (don't worry about the 3 quid we'll sort it later) and I'll pop the thing in the post on or around the 28th ..

And let me know (just for my curiosity) if you get any life out of the beast ..

Can't check to see if I have your email until I get back to work (Tuesday).

As soon as I get it, consider it in the post ... (if any problems I'll write after 28th/29th/whatever Tuesday is!)
