Testing a graphics card

Right, got a second gtx 280 (this one works) and just taken the cooler off it and put it on the £60 card.

It powers up, fans spins and LED is green but no output at all (motherboard has successfully posted)

Put it in as a secondary card (my 9800gtx as primary) thinking to see if it is recognised in windows (i.e, as physx card) but nothing showing up at all.

Guessing the card it knackered then?
 
So you got another 260, tested it, and it all works fine?
took the cooler off to put on your first 260, and its not working?

^^
can only leave one assumption. Its knackered.
