This is a bit weird - I have an EVGA 580 that I bought NIB from a seller getting his RMA back, it linked to his account and for all extents and purposes, he's unreachable.

I slapped an Accellero Extreme on it and everything was good for a year or so. At one point I started getting odd driver crashes that would go away once I reseated the card, I also baked it after the first time thinking something got loose during my install. I got fed up and bout a new card without fully identifying the problem.

Knowing that the card may have some issues but comes with the stock cooler and the AXP - what do you think its worth?

What about the cooler by itself?

Thanks

I'm not sure on the gtx580, I wouldn't want to touch that thing, but the cooler should be worth around$45-50.

He baked it so the only thing I would say thats worth anything now would be the Accellero Extreme and I would agree on the 45 to 50 shipped..

I would try folding on it, if it still folds well somebody around here will probably want it for the PPD.

The original AXP bends the card from tightening the screws too much and kills the card after a while. I know this from experience. What is happening is what happens when you put a piece of paper over a bowl then press in the center of it.
