About Me:
I have been trading BTC for a month now and just recently decided to immerse myself in the community.  Last week, when I saw newegg get a new shipment of 5830s, I was lucky enough to nab 2 of them.  Now, I'm a trader only -- I don't mine.  I bought these specifically for re-sell.  I realize that I'm new to the community, and therefore, an unknown quantity, but I expect to be around for a while.  Therefore, I'm offering these 5830s at low price so I can build up my reputation and (hopefully) build up some goodwill around these parts.  If all goes well, I will continue to sell more items.

What You Are Getting:
I am offering 2 brand new 5830s.  I am selling them as a lot, so I won't split them out individually (this helps me with shipping costs). I received them last week from newegg.  Like I said, I'm not a miner, so these are completely brand new -- they have never been installed.  I opened the boxes to take pictures with my user name for verification purposes only.  

What I Am Asking:
I want to sell these cards for bitcoins.  I will sell at the BTC market equivalent of $255 ($14/BTC, so 18.2142857 BTC) which includes free shipping.  

Why So Low?  
Like I said, I am new here, and I want to be a part of this community.  I plan to be around here for a long time.  I realize that I am newer and have not yet built up a reputation, so this is my chance to do so.

whoops, so there has been some confusion on my initial post about the BTC exchange rate.  To clarify, I set the value @ 14 USD / BTC, (which was the approximate value at time of post yesterday).

I am interested, but my money is tied up in a "return" to an online merchant. 

Can you post a link to the newegg listing? (or just answer me this: what kind of PCIe cables does it need?  two 6's, two 8's, or 1 of each?)  K thanks bye.

5830's are two 6-pins. BTW they are awesome on heat. Mine are blasting away at 60 crammed together fairly tightly.

Nah, I have a ASUS 5830 with an 8-pin and 6-pin need.  Silly.  The card came with a molex-to-6pin but not a molex-to-8pin converter.

Here is the exact product that I bought:  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102878&cm_re=5830-_-14-102-878-_-Product


Now, I'm not sure I understand your PCI-E question.  Are you talking about extenders?  Power cables?  Or does the newegg listing/previous post answer your question?

Yeah, that link gave me what I wanted to know.



This one needs TWO 6-pin PCIe power cables.

Bad news, everyone.

At the urging of my techie friend, he suggested that I first test the cards before sending them off.  Well, lo and behold, both are dead.  Unbelievable.  I don't know if it's just bad luck, or I did something to them when I took them out of the anti-static bags.  At any rate, they are no good to anyone, and as such, this thread is closed.  And newegg doesn't have any replacements in stock.  Looks like I'll just be sending these puppies back in for a refund.  Sorry to all who were inquiring... sorry to waste your time.  And yes, I do feel like a gigantic ass.
