The first card worked when I first bought it. It was mounted in an NTX Waterblock and worked fine. When the pump on the waterblock quit, I decided to remount it in the blower case that had also came with the card. When I took it apart, I saw that the previous owner had glued aluminum heatsinks to each individual capacitor, the memory cards, and anything else that looked to him like it needed one. I was unfortunately unable to take the heatsinks off without also removing about 12 of the capacitors, etc. As I foolishly hadn't kept track of what came from where, I was unable to reseat them.
The second card was purchased as is/for parts. It was the closest to exactly identical I could find. My plan was to take the good parts off of the for parts card and install them on the "good" card. However, time passed and I never go to it. I now have too many GPUs to go around and neither need nor want either card, so here they are.
They will come with 2 mining waterblocks that fit the cards. But there are no fittings for the waterblocks - you would have to figure out how to make one or find one somewhere. I have two because in desperation I bought a mining card that worked to install in the blower so I had at least one usable card. It works fine, but that is how I came to have two mining waterblocks. If you are interested, you can also have the dead pump, radiator and fan that was in the NZT set-up (make sure to tell me you want them also).
So that's the story. I see these things selling for about 100 bucks a piece, you can have both with the waterblocks for 100 bucks.
