I think the msq is judging my playstyle q-q

I logged on for the free weekend and kinda forgot how much time I put into crafting vs the actual msq. Seeing that I left off on "A Little Slow, a Little Late" made me chuckle a little. Anyone else have a WoL who decided to craft instead of dealing with eorzea??

Doing a full homelab clearout before college. (aka my parents told me to get this shit out of the house) Local pickup welcome in Phoenix, AZ 85048, local cash gets ~5-10% off most items. Otherwise PayPal G&S, prices include shipping for the most part unless its incredibly expensive to your location for some reason. Please Comment before PM. Open to negotiating / discounting if bundling.

If any of the prices are wildly off please feel free to let me know, thanks all.


GPUs - both 3090s have disclosed faults, please read carefully

RTX 3090 EVGA FTW3 Ultra -$550- FOR REPAIR / PARTS AS IS

front | backplate | with timestamp | video

Tested with a PyTorch full-VRAM cell sweep. Stuck-bit cells found in the upper memory region (~14 GB+ into the 24 GB pool), with ~60,000 cells failing with deterministic same-address failures every run. Current working theory is that one specific GDDR6X chip has a stuck-high top byte on its data lines, and I don't have a spare GDDR6X chip or a hot air gun so its going up for sale.

Practical impact:

  • Works cleanly for anything fitting in ≤13-14 GB VRAM. Qwen3-14B inference verified, gpu-burn 1hr @ 200W passes clean, 1080p/1440p gaming fine.

  • Silently corrupts loads above ~14 GB: 4K texture-heavy AAA, large LLMs at FP16, big 3D renders. Do not buy expecting full 24 GB use. (like I kinda did)

Reflow or memory chip replacement candidate for a tinkerer. Otherwise cosmetically clean, was used power-capped in a workstation, never mined on. Happy to share full test logs and dmesg traces, I have them documented.

RTX 3090 Zotac Trinity OC -$425- FOR REPAIR / PARTS AS IS

front + box | backplate | side / heatsink | video

Card boots and enumerates fine, runs idle clean, but gpu-burn fails at ~80 s under sustained load with CUBLAS_STATUS_EXECUTION_FAILED and drops to ERR! state in nvidia-smi. Failure is electrical, not thermal (65 °C at failure, 200 W cap, well under TDP). Current theory is cracked BGA ball since it sometimes works better depending on the orientation of the card.

Recently repadded by yours truly. Failure logs available, likely just needs a reflow but I dont feel like getting yelled at for sticking this thing in the oven.

RTX 3070 Founders Edition - $250

front | back | side / power

Drove my desktop ~1 year, no issues, no cosmetic flaws. Only getting rid a friend gave me a deal on their old 4060ti.
