EVGA GeForce 7800GT
$250 shipped O.B.O. US only. A solid ~$50 under newegg.
card only, though I will include DVI->VGA adapters
oh, you also get Call of Duty 2 if I can find it... I think i have it here somewhere.
edit: oops, heatware ID is Pillage&Burn
AND I DON'T USE CRAPPY "3 DAY" SHIPPING WITH UPS, I use Fedex 2 day or Saver, usually.... so it gets to you faster.
Do you know which card it is? What are it's stock clocks?

forgot exactly what is stock clock.... but i believe it's the '517' or '518' version.... it's the CO copper heatsink variant.
I am pretty sure the memory runs at either 1100 or 1200mhz, not sure about core though - i'll have to look it up. But the core is clocked over "normal" speeds afaik; however, I'm just not sure by what amount.
edit: card is clocked at 470 core / 1100 mem.

okay, the reason the card is $250 shipped is because:
a) I realize that it is (slightly) used
b) It's missing a SINGLE cable (which i probably have, just too lazy to find it) that came with it.
Shipping will be about $10, so you will actually be getting the card for more like $240.
A solid $50-60 off of what Newegg charges. And if you do an apples to apples comparison (EVGA 517 series) ... you save $70.
You're getting a good deal :)
edit: oh, and the card has been registered... that can be changed though.

Uhh, doesn't eVGA have that rule that once you register the card under a name you cannot change ownership? Otherwise the lifetime warranty is void.

So is a sale pending or is the card still on the market?

card is still available - i've been busy so it gets hard to follow up on this sorta thing.
$250 shipped it IS the CO version.

EVGA will provide a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser of each retail product that the product will not suffer, in material or workmanship, from any defect that adversely affects the performance of the product.
Under you, the original purchaser.
As Long As The Product Is Not Registered Under Him. The Warranty Is Valid!!!

"It has been registered, but I can give you that information if you'd like (change it over, that is)."
Not valid anymore? :confused:
Indeed. you cant not change over the warranty

not backing down any time soon. With or without warranty (in this case, with) it's still a bangup deal.
Slightly OT - What are the differences between all the 51X versions and the AX or no AX on EVGA cards?

Pm
I can tell you first hand that the registration/warranty can not be tranfered over once registered. I've been trying to get my card registered to my name from the original owners with no dice. I've called and he's called. I guess if something did happen to the card, you could always send it in, but it will be shipped back to the original owner, then he would have to ship it to you, but I'm not sure that would even work without shipping it from the original registered address, which in that case you would ship it to the original owner and he would have to ship it to eVGA. Big mess by them not allowing this. I'm still trying, but I won't hold my breath.

Sorry for the thread hijack, but if a card hasnt been registered through the manufacturer already, do you think it can be sold to someone who can register it and get the warranty? For example, if I sold my BFG OC card (lifetime warranty) on ebay, without ever registering it, could the buyer register it and get the warranty? Maybe if I sent it with the original reciept or something. Im not sure how it works.

I don't see any reason why you should not be able to...

You dont need proof of purchase with bfg. If i recall correctly, the way bfg does it is if u dont have proof of purchase.. you have to send the card in first. If u do.. u get an immediate replacement while they wait for ur card. I bought my bfg 6800 gt off of ebay and got an rma no problem. Oh but never send the card in with the box. I made that mistake and received only a card back with no box.

Yeah, if the card isn't registered, you should be able to get the warranty, maybe, if not, at least the new owner can get tech help by registering, whereas he/she wouldn't be able to without registering. The whole warranty thing...that I'm not sure of as far as the receipt goes. I know with AMD you don't have to have the receipt, just the corresponding parts. You might get ahold of OWA, he's registered an eVGA card before and you might ask him if he had to do proof of purchase at all for warranty. Maybe just a date of purchase and what store or something like that.

thats no where near as bad as what happend to me (although im lucky) i got a 6800 Ultra PCi express on ebay, manufactured by Gigabyte. Well the 6800 ultra didnt work due to some dead pixel pipes, so i mailed Gigabyte and was told they cannot do anything for me (of course this is the American center) so i phoned the one up in the UK and well the woman said "your not supposed to call this building for this sort of thing" but with my charm ;) i managed to get her to get me a RMA for the card despite me not having the original heatsink, she was really helpful all the way and loan be hold i got a replacement card (for free may i add due to getting a refund from Ebay seller). However when i sent the card back it had a Artic silencer on it and when i got the new card back it had the original heatsink on it.
Ah well cant complain really, id just like to point out how despite terms and conditions it is still very possible to put a warrenty to use.
