I got a partially broken graphics card and I don't know if I should sell it at a much reduced price , (30% cheaper) Or if I should just sell it as a broken card and sell it for half the price , btw what I mean by partially broken is that when you plug it in it works normally but if it moves the smallest bit the display either goes black or it gets lines and shit
If it's a decent GPU remove the shroud and heatsink, check the PCB for cracks/broken traces and reflow it.

Do I use the oven method or what
Landon Perry
yes
Elijah Butler
I only have my oven though and I heard that it can release some nasty shit into the oven
Grayson Robinson
Don;'t do it to the same oven you use food in.
Brayden Hughes
Well shit then cause I don't have have a heat gun or anything...
Robert Collins
You can sell it as non working/parts then. Reflowing it is only a temp fix anyways, it will often just break again in an even more catostrophic way.
Justin Davis
No one will buy a broken graphics card though and I know I'm so close to fixing it.... FUCK
Cooper Wilson
They will. Put it on ebay, state the problem(s) with it in description. State it is broken and for parts.
They'll buy it and reflow it and jew someone with it who doesnt know it'll break again in under a year.
Aaron Sanchez
But im the one that wants to Jew someone out of their shekels
Jaxson Peterson
It does fucking work its just the card has to be at this specific fucking angle its like when your phone charger breaks and it has to be in the perfect spot for it to charge
Well that's too bad, user. Leave the jewing for the professionals. If some no name seller on ebay tries to sell a reflowed card as new some faggot is going to shut you down.
Jackson Jones
It's probably a bad contact with the pcie slot you dumb fuck
Hudson Barnes
If you really truely must jew people, you can get a used toaster oven.
Aiden Gray
How much should I sell it for then ? It does boot so IMO it's more valuable than a completely blow card , its a HD 7950 power colour btw
Explain how I'd fix that you dumb fuck and it can't be the motherboard cause it works perfectly with any other card
Bentley Rodriguez
?????? Answer?
Noah Clark
Like 30 bucks. I wouldnt try over 35-40.
Jew. I think user is wrong here, your card is just dead from too many heat cycles, I imagine. But you should try googling "How To clean contacts of pci/video cards"
BTW, if you end up selling it on ebay after reflowing it, I am telling you, the buyer is not going to be happy with the fact that you reflowed it. Because that card will be running on borrowed time. It's essentiallly dead, you should sell it as parts and move on. It's an old card and not worth being a jew over. Go get a 760 or something for 60 bucks, jesus christ.
Colton Turner
you can buy a cheap toaster oven
Aiden Roberts
mount your hd plz. you only need two screws
Cameron Williams
I'm selling it to get cash for a RX 480 30 bucks ? I bought this shit for 105 1 year ago
Luis Bell
The HDD undearbeath the card is there to allow it to work...
Nicholas Nguyen
760 for 60 ? I fucking wish here I'd get a 750 for 60
Isaiah Roberts
I wouldn't have paid over 80 dollars for a gpu like that, it's quite old
But if it's used and broken, then that is what I estimate its value to be at.
It was probably a few years old when you got it.
Hunter Hill
Fuck it and I'm selling it for 50 flat it boots so it can't be that fucked and I've seen completely dead 7950's go for more
