A craigslist post? Is the seller high? No one in their right mind would sell that rig for half the price it's worth. But isn't weed illegal in Virginia?  :P

 

I'm not going to come to conclusions about the truthfulness of your claims, but I find the price tag of $1000 hard to believe. 760 SLI? Z87-Pro?? HX1200??? $1000????

 

If this is true, then I nominate this for the Best Deal of 2014. I would also nominate this seller for Retarded Seller of The Year.

I was even trying to low bowl that guy, I was asking for $800.00... but settled for $1000.00

 

the back story is, He had buyer earlier that morning contacted him to buy that rig... for $1150.00

 

They planned to meet at local Walmart,  When Steven (the seller) arrived at walmart the so called "buyer" pulled a gun at him... But Steven has a good knowledge abt guns him self, he looked at the barrel and realized its BB gun :blink:

 

Steven tried woop his as* and that kid run away... 

 

yup.... true...

 

then I called with an offer... :)

It's not hard to believe, Some people are just stupid. I bought my Corsair K60, Steelseries sensei, Steelseries 9HD and Razer vespula all for $30 from the same guy, Got my 1920x1080 Benq monitor for $40 and my 7970 new from craigslist when bitcoins were $1000 each for $240. For the most part craigslist is filled with terrible deals but occasionally people need money and sell things cheap (or they are stolen).

 

Edit: Oh yea i bought my old Gigabyte 7950 for $160 along with a Rosewill lightning 1300W for $50 from craigslist as well.

All the components are brand new, abt 2 months old, the owner had to go overseas even before he had the chance to work on it,

 

And the ventilation and air flow is simply amazing in this AZZA Hurricane 2000R case, just google it. I didn't even know abt AZZA case until now  

 

the h100i is in push pull configuration by the way  :)

 

there is a slim 120mm fan behind the motherboard to keep the Motherboard cool !!!

 

2 huge 240 mm fan on the side panel blowing on the GPU and Motherboaed

 

2 120mm front intake fans

 

1 120mm back exaust

 

And I added another 120mm fan as intake at bottom  :)

 

every fan has filter and led's

There's not really any point to the fan behind the motherboard because that's not where the power delivery and chipset is, but if it's included, why not?

I wouldn't put anything from Azza on my wishlist but this sounds nice. Nice side fans to cool that SLI setup, EVGA ACX isn't the best idea for low temps and low noise.

 

And good luck to that seller going overseas.
