Title: [WTS] R9 290, R9 280X, 7970, 7950
Post by: Prelude on February 06, 2015, 05:52:27 PM
Finally getting around to selling some of my GPUs. Shipping from Montreal, Canada. Local pickup not a problem. Escrow is fine, buyer pays escrow fees.

Here's what's available with prices in USD:

7950:

1x Sapphire Reference $125
3x Gigabyte Windforce 3 $135

7970:

15x MSI/Gigabyte/Diamond/Sapphire Reference $150
6x Sapphire Dual-X $150
1x Powercolor (no fans) $120
6x Asus DC2 (tripple slot monsters) $170
1x Asus Matrix Platinum $200

280x:

1x Sapphire Dual-X (good fans) $150 (Only 1 left!)
6x Sapphire Dual-X (bad fans) $120
1x Asus DC2 (Dual slot version) $170

290:

16x Sapphire Reference $200
1x MSI Gaming Edition $220

These have all been tested working 100% by running 3 hours of benchmarks / games on them. Each test consists of 1h Unigine Valley, 1 hour 3DMark, and 1 hour BF4.

A few reference 290 and some 7970 cards have had their back plates modified to allow better cooling and reduced noise:

I will take all of your R9 290 for $170 each shipped. Can you re-attached the backplate and shroud and bring it back as close to retail condition as you can? please email me with details to macbeth@gmail.com as I do not check this forum very often.

Yes you can, games will run perfectly but the 290x will be run as a 290 while crossfired.

If you're planning on actually using the cards, the mod is a good thing. Temps are a few degrees lower, and the fan noise when pushed is much less irritating. I'm pretty sure the brackets could be found for very cheap either way. Only 6 of the cards have the cut bracket.

I will buy your uncut r9 290 for $190 each in that case. Didn't notice. Please email macbeth@gmail.com

Hmm, maybe 6 290s left. Would have to check tomorrow. Mostly epilda, with maybe 1 or 2 hynix left. Not plugging them in to check, though. The msi 290 is hynix.
