Default Review Units FS. BFG GTX 260 OCX MAXCORE


THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR CONTRIBUTING. ON JAN 8th A LUMP SUM-CHEQUE HAS BEEN SENT TO THE CHSF FOR AN AMOUNT OF $2120 PLUS MY OWN DONATION. THE MONEY COUNTER WILL NOW BE SET TO $0 AND BEGUN AGAIN FOR THIS YEAR!!!


ALL PROCEEDS FROM THESE SALES WILL GO TO THE CANADIAN HEART AND STROKE FOUNDATION.
Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada - Heart Disease, Stroke and Healthy Living

As some of you have seen (and hopefully read) I am doing reviews for this site on a regular basis. As such, I get components to review on a regular basis; some of which have to be returned to the manufacturer. Some of the ones I get to keep eventually do nothing other than sit around collecting dust so I have decided to begin selling them and turning the profits over to the above-mentioned charity.

All money will be collected into an account I have set up for this purpose and in January 2009, a lump-sum cheque will be sent to the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation.

MONEY COLLECTED SO FAR: $1380

This thread will be updated regularly with new units as they become available.

ALL ON THIS ITEMS ARE IN LIKE-NEW CONDITION.
PSUs have been tested to be working after the tests but have their warranty stickers removed.

All products unless otherwise specified DO NOT have warranties associated with them. HOWEVER, I will be giving you a 60 day guarantee covering any malfunction which may happen.

This gives you guys a GREAT opportunity to buy like-new components for great prices.

Payment Methods:
EMT (Preferred)
Paypal (Add 4% to price)
Cash in Person

Shipping:
All packages are shipped insured through Canada Post Exedited Parcels or Expresspost.

Not sure what video card yet- probably an 8800GTS 320- overclocked e4300, Asus Commando, one HD- I know that the 600 is plenty for this.

Wow!!!!

Anybody coming into the forums asking about a new build should seriously consider picking this up!!!!!! ($30 + tax & shipping probably comes to at least $40..... $40 strategically redirected can make a big difference to at least one choice of hardware!)
