Intel i7 4790k
Asus Strix GTX 1080
MSI Xpower z97
Xpower 1100w PSU

Total price paid $742 Delivered after ebay $75 off code..

Seller then messaged me after the auction saying theres an EK waterblock on the CPU and he'll chuck in 4 sticks of gskill memory for the inconvenience.

    Ahh… depends if it works…

    the wifi module works but the antennas are broken
    the xpower psu is modular, but i dont have all the cables.

    So, mainboard potentially damaged
    PSU useless without cables, good luck finding them second hand.

    Let's hope they haven't overclocked and overheated the CPU and GPU :O

    Make sure you've thoroughly tested everything before your refund duration expires.

      Sounds like just the screw-on antennas are busted. I managed to bust one of mine lifting the computer before.

    yea good deal, the free rams prolly worth $150 least

    i think he meant the mod PSU doesn't come with 'all' cables but still have cables for mobo/gpu - better check.

    EK block is good. Not sure why that's an inconvenience. It's a chip that runs hot when overvolted and water-cooling is an effective solution for it.

    • AdosHouse on 22/02/2019 - 22:25

      Well as long as it comes with the rest of the watercooling setup, otherwise it's not much use.

    That's a great deal. I paid double for the same item about 12 months ago. You should be very happy with it. Enjoy!
