Hey everyone,

For sale is my current graphics card and PSU as I have bought a new one. I bought the graphics card at the end of 2007 for $253, and the the PSU aswell. The max power output for the PSU is 500 watts.

The graphics card is in an excellent condition even though some dust is stuck on its fan over the time, oh well (I just took it out today). It was one of the fastest cards when it came out. I was able to play Crysis on medium settings with average FPS of 28-35. It can still play many games easily, but now I have a 23'' monitor and play at a higher resolution, therefore I needed another alternative.

You won't be disappointed. This is the ideal for anyone wanting to have a cheap card to do most of today's work.

Some detail specs of the card:

GPU NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS Graphics Bus PCI Express Memory size 256MB GDDR3 GPU/Memory clock 675/1000MHz Memory data rate 2000MHz Output Dual Dual-Link DVI, HDTV Memory Interface 128-bit Data bandwidth( GB/sec.) 32.0 Fill Rate(billion texels/sec) 10.8 Stream processor 32 RAMDACs (MHz) 40

It comes with 2 games which I havent even opened and they have their own CD key. Other discs include the drivers one and some third party software such as PowerDVD, again which I haven't used.

I'm seeking $90, which is negotiable. As for the PSU im seeking $30, it is in full working condition, just turned it off a few minutes ago.

Pickup from Sydney west(Blacktown area).

Thanks for looking. :/

The gpu is way overpriced. cut it in half and you might find a buyer. for $90 i can get a brand new ati 4670 or a 9600gt which will outperform your card :)

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
