I have a couple of these. 1 would be $425 shipped, both for $800 in BTC. Uber bios setting has been flashed with the PowerColor PCS bios which is a 1030 clock and it seems to run cooler (undervolted perhaps?). Great cards, just changing up my setup. Shipping from northeastern US to continental US only.  Thanks

are you willing to use escrow?  and what is the exact model number?

Hello. The model is PowerColor AXR9 290 4GBD5-MDHG/OC Radeon R9 290 4GB 512-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Video Card. On the "uber" bios setting I have the powercolor pcs+ bios which is 1040/1350 clocks. The most I've seen them hash at was 830 with a 20% powertune. I imagine they could do more but I didn't put much effort into tweaking. Any more questions, feel free.

I'm new to escrow so I would prefer not to use it but if there is a reliable service you trust I'll look into and definitely consider it. Thanks!

What is the warranty left and PowerColor policy? Transferable or serial based?

Newegg listed it as such:

    Warranty

    Limited Warranty period (parts): 2 years
    Limited Warranty period (labor): 2 year


As far as it being transferable, I will contact a newegg rep and ask. I'm guessing it's one of those YMMV situations but I'll let you know what I learn. Thanks

I spoke with a Newegg rep and she says that the warranty is not officially transferable for this or any second hand vga cards.  From my experience though, most manufacturers are pretty decent with helping people out if there is an issue. I have not had one problem with these cards with about a month of mining at 65-75 degrees.

Can you tell me what kind of temperatures you're able to maintain?
