Grapist i have an 8800GTS 320 i believe from BFG, there a dead company now so i couldn't collect my Warranty ;) maybe you could fix this once glorious card. pitch me an offer since its just laying atm, the problem is Vram, im sure because it brings a black streak down the screen but it will boot and work in games and grant good FPS, very odd. maybe good test for your skills? i do live in canada but shipping shouldn't be too much

Contact me via pm , as it goes to my phone.
