    Price advice - 280GTX + WB - whassitworth?

    Well it seems i've bought me a 580 - so now i've got my 280GTX + full coverwaterblock coming up for sale - what's it worth? It's run flawlessly for ages and always on water (and so no heat damage). I've got the box, the stock cooler (which I could refit) and a full copper block.

    Think GTX 280s with stock coolers are going for about £70 these days, no idea about the block.

    Around £100 I would say. Seen someone on WCuk forums selling them for that much..

    yeah I'm seeing that as i look... The blocks seems to go for 35ish - might separate the two methinks.

    try floggin as a bundle then split if need be as you will be lucky to flog the block on its own.

    I'd put it in the region of £100 as well. Water cooling GPU's is still a niche market so you are not likely to get too much for the block.

    The card is worth a fair amount though so two combined £100. Pretty fair I would say.
