    whats a water cooled 8800gtx worth ?

    my mobo blew last week and took out one of my water cooled 800GTX's with it

    it a xfx stock card with a EK full cover block on it, been clocked for benchmarking purposes but ran at stock as the gains not enough to warrant straining the card.
    what would it be worth at a rough guess ?

    being as though i cant find where i brought the dead one from im considering the jump to the BFG H20 280 card so would like to know how much i can offset the £450 cost :s

    also have a spare full cover block but i assume thats worth about 35 including postage ?

    I am fairly sure they don't. At least a full-cover block anyway.

    The smaller "die only" blocks are normally compatible across a wide array of cards though but also need RAM sinks and VRM coolers fitted in addition to the block.
