hi there!

just a few questions!!

well i know you said it wont boot, is this due to the fan failure or is there something more serious wrong with it?

what i am thinking of is i have one gtx 295 coming (single pcb) and im wanting to drop a second in for quad sli and they would be both watercooled so the fan isnt a problem!

is there any chance you can put another fan on the header and see if it boots up with a working fan?

if it does work then ill buy it

thanx
ken

and his reply

LOL OK THAT WORKS IM KEEPING IT

why do i feel like i missed out and solved someones problem?

dam it i feel so stupid :(
 
What a bummer. How much was he selling it for? If it was cheap enough, I would have took the chance and if it didn't work then you wouldn't be out much money.
 
LOL I wonder if this could go to the Fail Thread? Guess asking detailed questions doesn't always help you :P
 
well, look at it this way: you helped him out and saved him some money, you definitely scored some karma points. :):good:
 
As much as i would like to funky i think ill give it a miss. hey do you have time to advise me on something im selling on ebay it broke and i want to sell it unless you can fix it for me :P
 
the only thing you have is BO and 3 nipples!!

GO PUT YOUR BOTTOM LIP OVER YOUR FOREHEAD AND SWALLOW YOURSELF ;)
