ASUS 5850 Direct CU with Zalman VF3000N cooler and fan controller

I payed 208.99 for this card new a week or two ago. I added a 60.00+ cooler because I didn't like the temps I was getting with the orginal cooler and I'm kinda nutty about fan noise. This Zalman cooler allows this chip to run in the 63c to 73c (depending on the overclock), during heavy gaming, with the fan controller set to 2500 Rpms, in my solid sided moderate air flow case. The fan is very quiet and has a cool blue LED. Here are a few examples of the stable 24/7 overclocking you can expect with this card, 950 /1250 or effective 5000 memory at 1.25 v occt stable , 925/ 1250 at 1.8v and 850 /1250 at default voltage making it match or exceed a 5870/6870 performance. It is a great card but I'm selling because I bought a gtx 480 for next to nothing. This card was used to play Dirt 2 at 1920/1080p on a 24 inch monitor and it was hitting near 100 frames at 4x/x16 Ultra/ High settings in DX11. It is a great card!!! I will ship it with everything it originally came with ,install cd and cords etc... with the exception of the main big box, the card won't fit in it with the Zalman cooler. Here are some pics of the card and I'm asking 195.99 shipped to the lower 48 states. So basically your paying about 45.00 less than you can get it online and I'm throwing in a 60.00+ cooler. Saving you a total of about 105.00 and getting a vastly improved video card. I take paypal thanks for looking and get it quick because my next step is ebay. No trades at this time please. P.S this card looks even better in person and is in mint condition.
