I won a GTX 295 on ebay last night. Zotac GTX295 with water block fitted. Card is reportedly functional so we'll see what happens when it arrives.

The price may not please you guys trying to sell their 295's

Well what did you pay? How old is it?

xb8browney · 4 Apr 2010 at 18:20

£100-£150?

andicole0 · 4 Apr 2010 at 18:24

It's probably an early model, £170.01.

If it works, pretty good price imo

buttkinz · 4 Apr 2010 at 18:27

nice

good alternative to the 5850 if your not overclocking

andicole0 · 4 Apr 2010 at 18:28

Agreed, IF it works

At least it was listed as working.

I was looking at upgrading from twin 8800's but really want to stay water cooled so something where I wasn't wasting money on warranty was essential. I won't be overclocking water is for noise reduction.

Might be looking for a second card shortly :cool:

Oops, I thought that was some one else.

Tbh about what its worth, hope it comes through good for you. Got a great deal on my ssd recently on ebay

rounddodger · 4 Apr 2010 at 19:12

Very good price tbh, I would be happy with that.

Pooh · 4 Apr 2010 at 19:17

£170 is a cracking price. I'm looking at getting a 285 and they're usually going for that sort of money

Kharbyne · 4 Apr 2010 at 19:21

If it works properly thats a bargain!

Troezar · 4 Apr 2010 at 19:27

Always wary of buying OC'd broken stuff off you know where, still if it works good buy

kylew · 4 Apr 2010 at 19:29

If the card works, you could probably make quite a nice profit on it as well really considering it's got a waterblock on it.

Shakeel · 5 Apr 2010 at 00:15

let us know how it goes. when are you expecting it to arrive?

AMG · 5 Apr 2010 at 00:16

If it works it would be a great pick up

Kharbyne · 5 Apr 2010 at 00:24

Watercooled versions usually go for less becoz most people cant use them

AMG · 5 Apr 2010 at 00:29

they can just replace the waterblock
