dling Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I'm not ready to buy a new MB and cpu. I just built the rig I have last year. I doesn't look like the 8700k can be used with my current MB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braegnok Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Found a new listing on eBay this morning,.. used Nvidia GTX 1080Ti FE,.. missing a back plate screw for $699,00 Free Shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nvidia-GEFORCE-GTX-1080-Ti-Founders-Edition-Direct/253221694358?_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D41376%26meid%3D4c480802d3524d7fa9e3eb8927ac785d%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26sd%3D292302853161&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dling Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 I followed the link and it took me to a card thats already sold . BTW how important is the back plate ? Does it act as a heatsink ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braegnok Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Yea,.. it sold a few hours after I posted,.. you could have removed another and went to hardware store and most likely got a replacement screw. I guess those cards have a two piece back plate,.. seller's listing said he removed plate to run SLI and lost one screw ?,.. and yes it's sort of a heatsink but not a big deal running with it removed, I would have just bought a screw and replaced it.

I'm not looking for new. Not ready to pay that much for another card. The one I have was 699.00. Hoping to save some money by buying used.
