  1. Hey guys, I need to have a clear-out of my benching cards; personal reasons which I would rather not disclose but serious enough for me to warranty selling my GPU cache!

     

    More to be added adhoc!

    1. MSI GTX 580 Lightning

     

    Bought with the intention of getting some epic sub-zero globals, it hasn't been cold in fact I haven't really benched it bar a quick run on 3DMark Fire Strike

     

    Given the lineage/rarity of these cards for globals, I'm looking to recoup exactly what I paid!

     

    Looking for £100+ postage of your choice

     

    2. 2 x Sapphire Ref AMD 5870's

     

    Bought from a forum with the idea of also benching these on sub-zero for epic global points, once again not got round to benching them or sub-zeroing at all! These are "apparently" one of the best though in terms of 5870's so I have been told; Topdog has a pro score with one!

     

    One issue, one of the cards has a noisy fan which is like a ball baring has gone but it doesn't affect the cards performance/running in anyway whatsoever, based on that I have made it cheaper! Would pref to sell these as a pair but open to offers on single ones (again re-couping what I paid)

     

    Looking for £80+ postage for both

     

    3. BGF 8800GTX

     

    De-ja vu? Bought to bench but not had the chance and now need the funds more than anything! never been overclocked so no idea on potential, only put in a machine to test and works perfectly etc.

     

    Looking for £20 + postage

     

     

    More to come soon, will do a bundle deal on multiple cards; or a huge bargain for all my benching cards! These include a 7800GT (volt modded), 7900GT, NVIDIA 7950x2 etc

     

     

    Thanks for looking!

     

    I really want the lightning. Do you know how much to USA. GLWS.

  2. I tried Precision, Afterburner, Nvinspector and Gigabyte OC Guru II, none can set my mem any higher than 5010 lol... this sux bananas... Maybe I could try flashing your VGA bios ?

     

    Ya I can upload mine here. Is yours this one

    I'm so sorry man, after I went to get the product link for you I realized it's rev. 2. I remembered seeing rev. and thought it was the same. maybe my bios can still help you though.

  3. mm I bought a Gigabyte GT 730 rev 1.0 card, I can't seem to adjust the memory clock. It always jumps back to default in Win7 and 8, no matter the Nvidia driver or OC tool I use... anyone else having this?

     

    man I can't believe I completely maxed out my score and I'm out of top 10 already. The 5960x has a big disadvantage. It's nice to see a cheaper cpu competitive though. There isn't much more I could do at 4001mhz core, 3300mhz mem and 4.5 cache, my cache wont go any higher. It would be funny to use ln2 for this round just to get cache higher.

     

     

    I believe I have the same card. Which oc program are you using?

     

    The newest precision x is working great with my card, memory oc's nice and got core to 1371mhz on stock cooler. K-Boost even works.

     

    I would try px if you haven't already. Mine is working fine in both win7/8.1

     

    Do you plan on trying to mod your card. I would love to try but dont know where to start. Trying to at least mod the bios now for 1187mv, 1162mv is max in precision right now.

  4. Lol, they're easily found if you search for them, but free range to share would be nice.

     

    well if it's that easy than it would be nice if someone could help me out. I want to pull the trigger on a 580 lightning and 7970 lightning on ebay but I'm worried if I buy them first without abx I will be disapointed. If someone could help me that would be amazing. Even if it was just the 580 lightning. I don't want to send pm's to pepinorang since I don't have the cards yet.

     

    I was also thinking since it seems this thread was made for the purpose of getting abx for newer cards and the thread was just updated. There must be a 980 ti lightning and 390x lightning on the way. Oh man, I can't wait.

     

    Things like making abx more accessible would actually make me most likely go with a 980 ti lightning. It really would sway my decision a lot. A lot of the reasons why I have stuck with the recent classys is because of the software overvoltage and evbot.

  5. I asked this question a while ago, but it would be pretty nice if we could just share the afterburners for the EOL cards.

     

    Warranty doesn't matter anymore anyway ...

     

    man that would be amazing. Even if it was just a card like the 580 lightning, I want to try one so bad but haven't had luck getting abx for it.

  6. Thanks for the kind words Michal!

    If you don't have S/N sticker, then RMA would be rejected anyway, so no problem ;)

     

    EDIT: If you don't meet the requirements, no need to send me PM. There won't be any exception. :)

     

    this is really awesome. At least there are some more clear guidelines to meet and at least we know they are thinking about it. Thanks for the news

  7. Any chance you guys could get some EVBots in stock so people can buy the EPowers and use them properly?? :P

     

    it sucks, they have been discontinued, hopefully they are working on an evbot 2.0 or something. I want to buy an epower so bad for my titan but I just don't have the skill or the money to replace my card, it's so tempting.
