[FS] PCI-E Sapphire X850XT with VF-900Cu, FanMate, and Accessories...$75 Shipped

Well, some of you may have heard the rumor that I plan on selling my PCI Express X850XT, despite the possible collectors value it may hold . You guys heard right! For $75USD, you can have...

-One PCI-Express Sapphire X850XT

The stock clocks are 520MHz core, and 540MHz on the GDDR3 memory (1080MHz DDR). It fits in your standard PCI Express graphics slot. I have never seen it hotter than 67*C, and with the VF-900Cu installed and on silent mode, it generally runs at 60*C load. I think the highest I've ever been able to overclock it to (for benchmarking purposes, which it rarely did anyways) is 617MHz core/617MHz memory with VF-900Cu installed. The card is in full working order, pristine condition, and was recently dusted. Expect several more years of loyal, powerful life from this wonderful card .

-One Zalman VF-900Cu VGA fan

I never was a fan of high fan noise, so I replaced the stock cooler, sold it, and bought myself a Zalman VF-900Cu. When on silent mode, you really cannot hear it, unless of course your entire system (including PSU) is passively cooled. The cooler came lapped and had a mirror finished. I put it on the X850XT with Arctic Cooling MX1. The stock RAM heatsinks have never given me trouble heatwise, and have never fallen off. Aside from a little dust, the VF-900Cu runs just as well as it did the first day. Expect several more years of life from this fan .

-One Zalman Fan Mate 2

This controls the power flow to any PC accessory with a three-pin connector, including fans and lights. It is in full working order, but the cover has sustained a little bit of abuse. The cover damage is negligible, and does not affect the utility of the product. Expect this to live just as long as the X850XT and VF-900Cu.

-One DVI to D-SUB adapter, in case you have two D-SUB monitors.

-One long S-VIDEO cord, in case you are connecting to a standard definition television.

-One short S-VIDEO to component video cable, in case you are connecting to a high definition television.

-One 4-pin Molex connector to 6-pin PCI Express power connector, in case you have no 6-pin connectors on your power supply.

-Three (business) day shipping to your front door courtesy of USPS, assuming you live within the continental United States.


Pictures of the products (I can have larger/more detailed versions of the pictures, or of certain components, if you request):















Now, here's the fine print...
  • I ship after I get the cash, no exceptions.
  • I accept payment via Paypal (no credit/debit cards), cold hard cash mailed to my house, and personal check.
  • I ship to the continental United States for no additional charge. If you live anywhere else, you pay the shipping cost (minus what it would cost to ship it within America).
  • If you have any problem with the product within the first fifteen days of receiving it, contact me. Depending on the conditions of the problem, I will either refund your money and let you keep the product (DOA), ask you to talk to USPS (broke in transit), or laugh at your misfortune (I'll only do this if you do something truly stupid, such as remove the hard drive cover with a hammer and wonder why the hard drive doesn't work anymore). Other than that, there are no warranties, expressed or implied.
  • All shipping will be done through the United States Postal Service. If requested, I will be happy to insure the product, but you will pay extra money if insurance costs over $5. I will track the order if you pay for tracking.


Oh, yeah, and my heatware is here.

Thanks for looking .

I've been looking for a X850XT master card, so I could use it in CF mode with my current X850XT in my other machine. This is not a master card, is it?

By the way, your price is a little too high. X850XTs (PCIe versions) can be picked up for as low as $30-$40 on eBay nowadays. AGP ones go for more. Even newegg had a sale few months ago where they were selling recertified Sapphire X850XTs for like $50. (A family member of mine picked up two of em.) ATI cards have poor resale value. It's the curse of ATI. I sold my GeForce 6600GT last year to some guy in Ireland for $160(USD). Hell, I've pretty much written off selling my X850XT. Once I upgrade my machine, it’s probably going to serve out its life in my media box. (Unless I find that master card.)

NOTE: Although old, X850XT has some serious pixel pushing power: http://www.gpureview.com/show_cards.php?card1=55&card2=

16 ROPs, just like 2900XT/PRO.

Unless you want to go Dx10 route for the sake of Vista and/or latest games, I'd say you should keep it.

Sub: If this was a stock X850 and only came in the anti-static bag, I'd agree, I'd be selling this for $50 + shipping. However,

A: this comes with a lot of extra stuff, including an aftermarket fan worth $50 alone

B: You can't blame a guy for trying .

Price lowered to $110 shipped. Bump!

Do you still need a master on a x850 with the new CCC?I dont think you do.

Well, you will find that, in terms of computer business, I'm an awful lot like CompUSA.

You can buy something off me, it will get to you, and you can try it out. If for any reason you aren't satisfied, make sure it all gets back to me, and I'll give you your $110 back. Sound fair?

As in closing most of your stores and selling off everything?

Let me know if you sell it...

Can hat be rechristened "asshat" for his ignorance which was followed up by insolence? Even my old socket A Qbic with 1Gb of ram and a 9800 "xt" played Oblivion 4 fecks sake. BUMP for a super fast SM2 card which needs a new home
