Pro/Forums - View Single Post - FS: Entire water cooled system + various parts

Well - after many different cooling projects, upgrades, etc., I've decided my next system is going to be air cooled again. And so, I'm going to sell off as much of the cooling gear as I can.

Lets start with my entire current gaming box, which I would like to sell intact as a unit. It still runs great, but it has a few little things about it that you should all know. 1. The pump has a dead-spot - sometimes when it stops it won't start again - shaking it out of the dead spot will get it going again. Been that way for over a year and I just leave it on, so it's not really an issue for me.
2. I pulled the northbridge mounting hooks out of the motherboard PCB (they were soldered down). The northbridge water-block is currently thermal-epoxied to the northbridge. This is the main reason I'd like to sell it intact instead of parting it out.

Specs:
P4 3.2Ghz Extreme Edition (obviously water-cooled, but currently not OC'd, no idea what its limit is)
Abit IC7-MAX3 (northbridge water-cooled, and original HSF mounts damaged/missing)
ATI Radeon 9700Pro All In Wonder (GPU water-cooled, memory heatsinks added)
2x Seagate 7200RPM SATA drives (currently RAID-0)
2x 512MB Corsair low-latency PC3200 DIMMs (1GB total RAM)
Audigy 2 ZS
LG 16X DVD+/-RW
LG 16X DVD-ROM
Antec PSU and case
I really don't remember what rad is in there, or what the specific block models are.

There are a few pictures of it at: http://www.baumstark.ca/gallery/Chip...oling-Problems they mostly focus on the chipset mounting damage, and are the only pictuers I have right now. I don't too much mind parting out the HD's, optical drives, sound-card - stuff that isn't intermixed/related to the cooling system. Or even just keeping that stuff to use in other systems around the house. Also - once I get confirmation that someone wants this thing, I have the excuse to buy the new system - so there will be a slight delay from when you say you want it till I can ship it.

I also have a box in my basement full of cooling parts from old projects. I've kept them as spares for when I have issues with my main system, but there's not much point in keeping any of it anymore. There's at least 1, maybe 2 older AMD CPU waterblocks. An original BlackIce rad with a custom-made shroud. I think there's a pump or two in there, and various bits of tubing (mostly Tygon) in various lenghts. I'm writing this from work, so I'm sorry I can't be much more specific. I'll update this and throw up pictures when I get home.

I'm thinking $1500 Canadian OBO for the system.
The rest of the parts - I don't really care, they just take up space in my storage room. Buy the system and I'll send 'em all with it. I'll confirm once I look in the box that there isn't something I can't think of, but somewhere between $20 and $50 for the entire box of various parts is probably fair.

Keep in mind I'm located in western Canada for shipping related issues.
