Title: Value question for 5770
Post by: tonto on January 04, 2012, 05:10:54 PM
Hey y'all, quick question... if/when I get the new 7970 that's coming out, I'll sell my 2 5770s to my coworker.  I'd like to ask a fair value w/out screwing him since we have to work together.  He's going to use them for gaming.  My initial thought is $150 for the pair plus I'll throw in the Crossfire Cable.
 
Is this too high, too low, or just about right?
 
If he doesn't buy them, I'll just put them in a spare machine for more mining.

IMHO right now the 7970s suck at mining. Only negligible performance improvements and sucks a ton of power compared to a 5870. Stick to the good old stuff :)

My primary use is gaming, not mining.  Mining is just something to do when I'm at work or asleep, or otherwise not gaming ;)

$150 is reasonable, even if perhaps at the upper side of reasonable.

I wonder how much these gpus are worth in GBP and BTC?
