I'll probably watercool it so the cooler doesn't matter.

I can't decide which one to get.

I would say if you can get a 55nm for 170 then get that one. New over used. |
I think you should get the used

I'm trying to avoid MIR because I don't know when they come back. I think I will get the used one. I'm trying to spend no more than $200 for a GTX 260 and a waterblock.

Usually its 1-2 months for MIRs. Theyre always a nice surprise in the mail

The guy I'm buying from said he will give me his EVGA account that he registered the card in so I can RMA it when needed.
