I saw one once where they had a bid for a casing of an HD5970, no card just the plastic for a few grand. I think it went up to a million or maybe not.

a lot of fake bidders ;)) (i've read that it's already been paid for too :D Title: Re: 90 000$ for a 7990Malta GPU on ebay ..sold :D Post by: MysteryMiner on April 25, 2013, 11:03:42 PM Engineering Samples have additional collectible value but honestly... For such money I can only imagine Apple fan buying prerelease sample of best and latest device just weeks before they are launched in stores.
There already are custom-made dual HD7970 cards that cost orders of magnitude less and are basically the same or even better performance. Title: Re: 90 000$ for a 7990Malta GPU on ebay ..sold :D Post by: bit777 on April 26, 2013, 02:10:57 AM That is literally INSANE!!!
