Hey guys,


I'm sure many people on here have bought stuff from other users from other websites as well as ebay. If you weren't careful, you might have dealt with a smoker, just like I did.


I bought my 560Ti for $120 on ebay, not knowing the seller was a smoker.


When the package arrived, this disgusting smell was coming from the box. Nevertheless, I plugged it in the PC and it worked fine. However, the fan was blowing the smell all over the room.


I decided to get rid of the smell by taking apart the cooler and washed it with soap, then let dry outside.


Then I took a small tea bag that smells nice, and stuck it in the card, also leaving it outside.


The smell was gone in about 4-5 hours and it makes the room smell nicer, too!
