All Sold. This thread will remain open till all the buyers have received their items

My EK GTX 470 waterblock is nickel plated but unfortunately due to EK cheaping out it has peeling nickel near the centre and near the top right corner of the block. The fins are not peeling. Pictures are attached. Unfortunately my warranty has been denied by EK for the most absurd IMHO reasons which is TLDR to explain in this thread. Details can be found here (http://www.overclock.net/t/1258482/rant-avoid-ek-shoddy-business-practices-and-bad-after-sales/0_30)

Water block: Asking for $65 shipped $55shipped $45 shipped

\I will offer a discount to verified folders and will also offer discounted combo prices if you're buying 2 items or more. Please ask away or PM me,

I will throw in the 2x EK SLI bridge connectors (to connect the block to the bridge) for free if you buy the block.

sold items:

My MSI Twin Frozer GTX 470 that I ran flawlessly for the past year or so~ until one of the fans broke/stopped spinning for no reason. I haven't been able to fix it so I swapped one of my GTX 580's into my rig. This card was working 100% at stock the last time I put it into my rig. Unfortunately I will not be able to do some testing before I sell this as my rig is *kahpoot after my board and CPU died...

GTX470: Asking for $105 shipped (to US and UK. Other places may need to +$5 as shipping is more expensive. Please ask me for price)

I also found my other Asus Reference 470. The cards dead/dying as it works but once it boots into windows and you fire up a 3D program or let it idle for about 30mins it'll suddenly not be detected and a reboot and a reset of the card is required. Its still covered under CONUS warranty so I'm pretty sure whoever buys it can RMA it with Asus without much hassle since I believe Asus uses a serial based warranty.

Half broken 470: $140 shipped
the Asus 470 can be RMA'ed with Asus for US/Canada based customers only. I'm going to price it accordingly but since it still has to be RMA'ed first any user that has over 2 or more market feedback here or on heatware you can pay 1/2 then the second 1/2 after the RMA has been completed as a sign on good faith on my part. If you are a new user or with low market feedback unfortunately I cannot do as above and will require 100% payment.

I also have a EK dual serial SLI bridge when I thought of getting another EK GPU block for my cards but that plans fallen out now since I'm no longer going to be doing business with them. I also have the two EK SLI adapters that connects the block to the card for GTX 4xx cards from what I believe from the product description.
I bought these for around $50 USD but I'll let them go for half price if you're going to buy the block+GPU.
If you're just going to buy them I'll sell it for $40USD. These are BNIB and never been opened

Good price for a 470, too bad one of the fans doesn't work

I guess it could be use-able with only 1 fan but i'd advise you keep an eye on temperatures. I can't comment on it under load with only 1 fan as I pulled it out of my rig after the fan stopped working after a reboot. Maybe you can go Mcgyver and take off the broken fan and strap another fan or position a fan to blow on it....

it certainly is usable...

Edit 1: the Asus 470 can be RMA'ed with Asus for US/Canada based customers only. I'm going to price it accordingly but since it still has to be RMA'ed first any user that has over 2 or more market feedback here or on heatware you can pay 1/2 then the second 1/2 after the RMA has been completed as a sign on good faith on my part.

Are you absolutely sure that the MSI TF2 GTX470 still works 100% aside from that fan? Does it have artefacts or does it freeze or such kind of problems? I am only asking cause i am interested and it would be a shame to buy it and to find out that it has problems, others than that fan. Also what accessories are included? And finally do you accept paypal?

1. I'm sure that it works 100% (other than that 1 fan of course). But if you'll like me to be 110% sure I'll see if I can arrange to test the card in my friend's rig tomorrow.
2. No accessories. Just the bare card.
3. Yes I take paypal.
