[WTB] 5870s & 5970s

[mc_lovin]

Hey i'm looking to purchase several 5870s and 5970s, only from a proven trustworthy seller, and a new or refurb card as long as it's not like battle-worn and haggard, and even then, if it mines, that's all that matters..  PM or post here with your offering.  I have purchased 3 cards in the past couple weeks and am looking for about 4-6 more total.

Actually, I need a lot more than 6..  Someone is investing a lot of money with me to purchase hardware and I need an unmentionable amount of cards.

Hey i'm looking to purchase a 5970 for around 70 BTC, only from a proven trustworthy seller, and a new or refurb card as long as it's not like battle-worn and haggard.  PM or post here with your offering.  I have purchased 2 cards in the past couple weeks and am looking for about 4 more total.

Are you interested in my 6990? Make me an offer. PM me.

bump! need cards!

I may have a couple 5970's for you.....what is your offer? 

[JWU42]

I have 3 x 5970 (all Sapphire and two with brand new fans) and 4 x 5870 (all ref design about 3 months old).

Lemme know...

I replied to your pm with my price for 2 fairly new cards.

5970's are falling off a cliff as far as value goes.  5870's are a much wiser purchase.   

Should wait another month or so on the 5970's.

All about density brother and a 5970 is hard to beat...

If OP doesn't want your cards, I may consider them.

for me, it's all about what will retain its value the longest.  i guess once you spend $400 on some graphics card, everything you make after that is profit, huh?  except, a month later, that 5970 will be worth $350.

5970's aren't so bad anymore, though... hell, one sold for $265 on eBay a couple weeks ago, and $210 last week.

5870's are still the best buy, right now (** err, maybe not, seeing what 5970's are selling for now on ebay)

$210!  /drool.  3200 shader processors for 2 bills is a lotta power.

umm, he says he's selling two of them in the description.     that's the $210 one... or, uh, the $105 each..

then there's:

$300

after that, you have one at ~$330, and then a veritable feast around $375

if i saw any listed by someone with at least a  little feedback, i'd go for $350 or less

Yeah deals can be found but it is hit or miss.  I got 3 5970s for $285, $330, and $400 (including a $100 waterblock).  Sadly one of three was bad. .  For the next two weeks I didn't get a single one which wasn't over my limit ($330).

Luck and timing plays a role.

Yeah, I've bought two 5870's from there.  The first one was perfect from the get-go.  The second one I noticed idled at over 45oC, probably why the guy sold it. Luckily it just needed a better thermal paste job...  i'd be hard pressed to recall a time where i'd seen so much thermal paste caking all over the place

(and my price point on 5870's is $165 now, many sold in the $160-$165 range on ebay)
