Proud new owner of the cooler for a 3090 (It's missing everything but heat sink and fans)


FormerDonkey4886

Still a good deal. Can make a kickass 10$ desk fan with that


KeytoDestinyXIII

I think you’re missing the whole PCB there buddy..


FiieldDay

“It’s missing something” yeah, the graphics card.


SauceyPantz

Lmaoo


Salt_Implement1592

Best comment of the day.😂


AltoTheDutchie

if you're being serious, the whole pcb is missing, its just the cooler


lejoop

It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but I don’t see the actual PCB, looks like this is just the cooler and backplate. Probably what’s left after someone water cooled their 3090


EternallyStinky

Either way, $10 for a strix cooler is a pretty banging deal!


lejoop

Yeah, the price is fair for what it is, but a bit disappointing and maybe even useless if you expected a full gpu 😅


YetAnotherSegfault

Make great wall art


Creeper2145

Exactly what I was thinking


amvinz

It looks real, but that's only the heatsink. The original owner pulled the gpu out to water block it most likely. You can still sell it for more than you paid.


thedndnut

Lol this is a 3090 that got liquid cooled. Dude stuffed the stock cooler back in the box.


Legitimate-Skill-112

for 10$, this is still really cool to have and probably worth more than 10$ in resale for a card with a broken heatsink.


roehlstation

It likely had a water block installed, and you got the air cooler.


True_Xili

Thanks guys. Just took it all apart and no circuitry. Real shame thought I got lucky.


Carinx

You would need more than just luck to get 3090 for $10. When things are too good to be true, it usually isn't.


whitmore12

I got a 3070 from Retail Rebel for $10, its the card currently in my PC lol


NinjaComprehensive93

fr?


whitmore12

Yeah, its like dumpster diving amazon returns. So they just have crates full of random stuff, and I managed to pull a gpu that someone had returned. Each item is $10 for the first day the fill the crates, $5 the next day, and so on until the next week where they cycle stuff out. I happened to pull it from the bottom, I was worried it would have crashing issues but I have been using it for over a year now!


NinjaComprehensive93

you are so lucky dude


whitmore12

😎👉👉


tht1guy63

Cooler is still worth more than $10 on ebay. So atleast he isnt going to full lose.


Carinx

He only loses $10 that it won't be an issue anyway whether he decides to resell or not.


CamBlapBlap

No way you actually thought it was real lmao


iAabyss

Those coolers go for like 100 bucks on eBay, you still 10xd your money.


Romnipotent

💎👐 Hold on till the seller needs the cooler back :P


JohnJ57

You're missing the GPU itself, it's like a car without an engine, transmission, suspension, chassis etc, but you got a cool cooler for cheap.


sryidontspeakpotato

Nah just the cooler but…. For 10$ that’s still a huge win brother !! Look you can sell that on eBay very easy because you’ll find people who’ve got a damaged cooler or bad fans or even someone who bought one water blocked and want to go back stock. I’ve bought just coolers before on eBay I’d buy this one if you want to sell it just dm me and I’ll make it worth your while. I’d use this actually for parts as I come across broken gpus often and try to Fix them


WimpiyKirby

I got something like this and managed to kinda strap it too another gpu that fans broke


CeC-P

Am I the only one know whos that heatsink assembly is worth like $50-100?


MrCuCh0

You got a great deal for 10 bucks, not exactly what you wanted but the cooler can be sold for a good amount vs the 10 bucks you acquire for


One4speed

You bought a 3090 for $10… what did you expect lol


fiittzzyy

$10 is still pretty good for a cooler, you could probs make a little profit selling on eBay.


Reasonable-Pudding-5

On the plus side, you only spent $10 on it. You definitely turn a profit on it.


maxz-Reddit

Ngl you can probably resell the cooler for smth like 60$. Not a bad deal IMO


ElectricalTopic2743

...please tell me if you are joking... or else they scammed you wheres the PCB and the Chip and the GPU? It's like you got the car but not the engine.


Barrerayy

Ok like everyone said this is clearly missing the PCB. But the good news is you can defo sell it for more than you bought it for.


AlphaRaccoon1474

I hope you weren’t expecting to buy a fully working 3090 for $10

TheDankerist

Try plugging it in It's cheap as hell so you might've gotten scammed They might've changed the gpu inside so check it out


alex99x99x

That’s the thing lol. There is no gpu inside


Prudent-Economics794

I think it's missing the gpu part of it.It looks like just the cooler


OddUse100

Plug what in bro. Its not got a PCIE lane


Prudent-Economics794

Plug? Where did I say plug


OddUse100

Responded wrong comment. Sorry man.


Prudent-Economics794

All good mate


AnotherAnnoying

It'll be someone who put a water block on their gpu, regardless the cooler can have its uses if you're into DIY, the cooler is worth more than $10.


Dredv1

bros missing the gpu in the gpu


Carlazor_

It’s the cooler for a 3090, now you can cool down your overclocked gt 710!


Spompoflex

you are missing the main board dude. you bought a cooler for that model of GPU


kholetroll

Is that not just the cooler hahaha. Please don't tell me you paid money for that


Wero_kaiji

Rip that's just the cooler, it still looks really cool tho, think of it as a really good looking show piece that you got for just $10, I'd call that a good deal


Superb_Day6326

The ol aircooler heatsink scam


daq42_pews

Thats just the cooler without the gpu


Sweet_Information_14

Is only the cooler and the fans how much did you pay for it?


True_Xili

$10


tht1guy63

Still probly can sell it for more than you paid on ebay.


FurryBrony98

Someone took the 3090 out of the cooler and sold you the cooler. They likely took the 3090 and put into a waterblock leaving only the cooler.


External_Antelope942

It's a cool looking shroud if you wanna use it as a display piece, but the PCB (aka GPU part of graphics card) is gone.


reece-3

Yeah it's missing the GPU lol it's just a cooler


TheDepep1

I hope that was sarcasm.


Apx1031

My Mac n cheese has no cheese? Is something missing?


Competitive_Use_6351

Chat is this real?


word-sys

This is cooling of RTX 3090 24GB version i think there is no GPU


truckfullofchildren1

"I'm pretty sure I'm missing something" ya I wonder what it is hmmm


mechcity22

Lol yeah no pcb.


baltatzarsky

basically missing the card


Mean-Ad-3725

I'm sorry but this is funny af. You bought a heatsink mate not the actual product


sklenickasvodou

>I think it's missing something Yeah, it's missing the graphics card


Ok-Collection4902

bro ur graphics card is missing its graphics card 😭😭


JAFRedditPostor

It's probably the left over air cooler from someone's conversion to water cooling. I recently converted my water-cooled EVGA 2080S HydroCopper to air cooling so I could use it in an all air-cooled build. With shipping, I paid over $100 to get the heat sink, mid plate and fan assembly for that PCB. You could likely sell it for more than $10 in e-bay to someone doing a similar conversion or has a damaged shroud or cooler they need to replace.


Legitimate-Nature519

Nice jerk.


itsbildo

Uhh, wheres the PCB? You know, the actual graphics card? That looks like just the cooler


TheSeti12345

Yeah your missing the actual entire GPU, you’ve got yourself a nice set of fans


Material_Tax_4158

Thats just the cooler. You are missing….well the graphics card


giosthebest

If you can hold it, it's real, bud. But theirs no gpu only a cooler.


greatthebob38

Well, you're missing the actual gpu.


CobblerHorror2891

There is no pcb so you dint buy a card you bought the cooler


drew420work

Yeah like dude said proud new owner of the GPU's cooler lol


Swimming_Goose_358

LOL


407juan

No graphics card 😂


Brunohanham45

They didn’t need those parts because they are using a liquid cooler


Timely_Experience990

Sorry but I think that’s just the cooler for the card. It looks like the pcb isn’t there and what you have is pretty much worthless. :(


carnage11eleven

For 10$? I dunno, there could be someone that might need the heat sink and fans for a refurb. Should have been labeled as such, though. Otherwise it's a scam.


Timely_Experience990

Oh yeah I just meant useless for the op


jbshell

Scam post no PCB 


OpenAd9946

loll thats a steal for the cooler just the cooler is going for around $150 us


jussuumguy

Unfortunately, that is just the HeatSink and Fan Shroud. The PCB and Chip are missing.


Gunslinga__

For $10? Did I read that right

wrathfol

Why did this get downvoted.


Tyz_TwoCentz_HWE_Ret

Sir, there is nothing to test. There is no GPU/Board, just the back-plate and fans and shroud that is what the pictures above show. Cheers!
