Check it out! They are offering two different packages, both with XFX 7970's. Just another sign that Bitcoin is going full on mainstream!!

If Newegg knew anything about mining then they would know that a XFX 7970 hash rate is terrible.

They hash fairly well... I don't like dual GPUs, but 7950s are long since sold out everywhere...

Newegg sucks.

They used to be good, now they aren't.

Trying to sell 7970s for ~$400 when the same thing can be had (R9 280X) for $300... I'm not impressed.

XFX cards are terrible all around.  I've never had a single XFX card that didn't eventually have problems that I had to RMA.

I mine at Kano's Pool because it pays the best and is completely transparent!  Come join me!

I couldn't imagine buying computer hardware anywhere but NewEgg.

Since Amazon is in WA state I get charged sales tax.  Newegg is CA so no tax (for me).  Newegg all day long...

Looks like this might not be too far off!
