Sad to see it go, but I got a 6800GT to upgrade my 6800NU. My four year old doesn't like the fan on the 5800U, so he gets my 6800NU. Note: in 2d the fan doesn't run at all, so it's totally silent unless running 3d apps.

I've got the box, manual, but no driver disk. Will ship UPS ground insured the work day after I get your PayPal or money order, supply tracking.

I thought of keeping this as a collectable on the shelf, but I'm going to offer it up for someone to put to good use.

I've added a cpu fan to the back heatsink. Default 500/1000 clock speeds, supposedly can be modded to a FX2000:

Do not buy into this 6800 hype! The 5800U was nVidia's crowning achievement!

JK, but it is as good as a 9700Pro for gaming, so I figured it's worth $150 for that. The fact that it can double as a big bucks CAD/3d Modelling card ought to be worth another $20.

Save it from teh lozerz of FleaBay.

That is strange they do for me? Oh well, I can take some action shots of the card for anyone interested.

Perhaps with a yard gnome? Or near a hammer and my stomped OTES 5800?
;)

P.S. I went to a friend's house and they worked there as well. Perhaps you need to be in WI....

Yep, it's a sad deal for me. I just can't see letting it sit in a box on the shelf gathering dust next to my sli.
I've got a 6800GT in my computer, and a GF2, GF3, and 6800NU for my four year old's box, so this one is kind of unnecessary.
I'm pretty surprised a CAD or design person hasn't bought it for flash trick.
Oh well.

Gone to Fleabay. :(

If no one offers me my reserve there ($150) the Gods want me to keep it as a good luck charm.
