Anybody need a 780

[AMD Lover]

You've probably seen my Classified but I just wanted to ask and promote if $400 is a good price for a barely used GTX 780 SC

[TheNinjaNextDor]

It's a really good price.

[AMD Lover]

It's a really good deal but advertising you classifieds on the normal forums is a no-no. What happened to that $430 780 lightning from earlier?

What the one I was talking about

What's even funnier is the GTX 780 would be about 2/3's of my budget for a PC...

An abacus, tin foil, 2 popsicle sticks, a virual boy, a cardboard box, 2 hamsters, broken class, brawndo, more cardboard, jerry, and 2 cans of spaghetti O's would cost $265-ish?

Wait you are selling a 780 for $400... So you can buy one for... $425? 

 

Are you high or am I missing something? (it's 1:22am for me atm and I didn't sleep last night so I could very well be missing something)

Hey, those hamsters cost a lot! Also, Virtual Boy's aren't exactly common these days and that abaci was used by Persian merchant way back when, man. I had to scrounge, boy. Scrounge!  :lol:

Oh damn. And are those pop-sickle sticks from the worlds first batch of pop-sickles? 

[AMD Lover]

Oh.... Why?

They look bad ass, I dont have $800 for a full custom loop and the LIGHTNING has a better cooler on it and its cheaper than getting a G10 and H75, my motherboard is MSI and im OCD about matching brands and well again, it looks bad ass, lol

Hell yeah, brother, and that Brawndo was specially mixed by Albert Einstein.

Huh... I get consistently better temps than my friend with a lightning, even when in the same room with my ACX FTW... Maybe I got lucky? I prefer the look of the ACX, but that's just me

[AMD Lover]

Did the pop sickles melt when you plugged them into the RAM slots or would they just not fit with your Brawndo installed. I hear they are quite large

Yeah the look isnt bad, I plan on Plastidiping parts of the shroud. I dont know how you get better temps the cooler on the LIGHTNING is like 2x bigger. He might just have bad thermal paste, me and TheNinja were talking about this and MSI has a tendency to put way to much TIM on the core, his R9 290 had paste overflowing off the die and my old 660TI PE was the same. When I PlastiDip I'll put some ICDiamond on it (ie. when i replaced the TIM on my 660TI PE it dropped the temps by 15°C because they had applied it so badly. It was a brand new card too.

Ah that might be it, I'll mention it to him and ask if he wants me to replace. I got some MX-4 laying around here somewhere.
