No difference I can tell. Both mine have 6 pin connectors. Some claim the 1 GB models can actually OC higher. I leave mine pretty much stock and under volted to save power and heat. I believe LTC mining shows Kh/s.

maybe 2gb takes a few more watts?

That's the premise.

I'll keep my eyes open. I'm not ready to sell mine just yet, they do pretty well on LTC. Although they probably are not worth much more than you are offering, I would be pressed to find a replacement for them.

Are you building a LTC farm? Now I'm thinking about decommissioning a box.  Grin

I have both 6950's in one box. These do 391 Kh/s per card 800/900 reduced voltage. Let me think on it and I'll give you a decision tomorrow.

Hey 420, I have two XFX brand 6950's 1GB models I would be willing to sell you. Cards are in GOOD
condition and would come in orginal boxes. Shipping via USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation
US Domestic only. I can do $265shipped for both cards, or $145 shipped for one card.

PM your zip code and let me try calculating the shipping again. I was using the Large Flat Rate USPS
priority mail box with $250 insurance for a base. But, I will try a different way and see if it comes out
cheaper, right now it looks to be around $22 for shipping. As for the seeds, i'm good there, mostly
just looking for btc to usd. As for shipping first, I wont ship without payment. If you want we can
use escrow service. Last week John (johnthedog) Moderator acted as escrow for a gpu/card sale
I sold a 5830 to sal002 so we could go that route if you dont want to pay first.
