All of these cards were used for mining for a few months in late 2013/early 2014. but have been sitting in a box since. I've tested them and each has different levels of functionality. i basically just checked that drivers would install, that it displayed video, and that it would run furmark.
1. MSI 7870 Hawk 2GB - $100 shipped
specs: https://www.msi.com/Graphics-card/R7870_Hawk.html
fully functioning.
didn't notice anything wrong with it. a little dirty. all the fans work well. and it ran furmark no problem.
1. XFX 7950 DD 3GB - $50 shipped
specs: http://products.xfxforce.com/en-us/Graphics_Cards/AMD_Radeon%E2%84%A2_HD_7950/FX-795A-TDFC
semi-functional.
displays video fine, and runs a desktop.
the rear-most fan does not spin and feels pretty gummy when moved by hand.
the fan issue doesn't seem to impact temps, still keeps OK temps with a single fan.
running furmark i'm seeing some strange behavior on the core clocks. it toggles between 900 and 500 MHz. it doesnt appear to be thermal throttling so I'm not sure if something is off with the GPU core or if it's something else. afterburner pics can be seen in the album linked below. 1. ATi HD5970 2GB with Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme heatsink/fan - $50 shippedspecs:
https://www.amd.com/en-us/products/graphics/desktop/5000/5970#card is non-functional. fans and heatsink work fine though.
card displays no video when used as the primary video adapter. from what i remember when mining on this card previously, it acted this way back then also, but it worked OK for mining when used as a second card. but now it seems it is not recognized at all, doesnt show up in windows device manager at all.
also it seems that one GPU core may not be working at all. there is only one LED lit around one GPU core.
I actually received this card in a non-functional state initially, but revived it with the oven trick. it may be able to be revived again, but no promises.
the price is really mainly for the heatsink at this point lol. I'll throw in the stock HSF if you want it.
all pics can be seen here.
