PNY GeForce 9600GSO 768MB PCIe video card

I just upgraded to a new GTX460, so I can pass this on for someone who wants a decent video card, but doesn't need the latest and greatest card.

Asking $25+ actual shipping.


This is a DX10 card with a 96 cores, 192bit memory bandwidth and 768MB of DDR3. It is basically a slightly crippled 9800GT. This is the OC version running 550 on the core and 1600 on the memory. Dual DVI outputs on the card.

Here is the actual product page:

It runs most games really well at 1280x1024, even Crysis.

I have replaced the stock heatsink with a quiet Arctic Cooling Accelero L2 unit. I have not experimented with clocking the unit any higher. I made the switch because the original fan started making a loud whining noise. I just swapped the sink rather than having to send it off for warranty repair/exchange.

I have the original box/packing and the original heatsink (which is noisy). The card was originally a single slot card, but the Acellero heatsink will take up at least one additional slot space.

The card also requires one PCIe 6-pin power connector. You should probably have at least a 400w power supply to run this card as well.

The card is still under warranty for a year or so I believe.

I can upload some photos later tonight.

Here are some photos. The box and original heat sink are up in the attic and I can't get to them tonight. I have DVI>VGA adapters and Molex>PCIe 6pin adapters as well. There is also some sort of dongle that fits in that DIN socket as well. I think that gives you component output.

The Accellero cooler alone cost me $22. Just trying to recoup some of that cost.

Ok, this is sold now. Thanks Ben. I will ship it out tomorrow.
