how much in $

[ssateneth]

There are 2240 VLIW5 shaders on each card in case anyone is wondering. For comparison's sake, a 5830 has 1120, 5850 has 1440, 5870 @ 1600, and 5970 @ 3200. Bid accordingly . That is unless you want to game on it instead. Gamers may find it more valuable.

How much $?

[ssateneth]

This isn't a real offer, but I think $175-$200 would be fair from a miner's perspective. I see 5830's on the forums for about $85-$95, and a 6870 is just a slightly revamped 5830, uses the same VLIW5 architecture and 1120 shaders per GPU. This card has 2, so double the price, plus a premium for being 1 PCI-E slot and a "newer" generation. It has a degree of resale value. Gamers might into it for $210-240 I'm guessing though.

In reality though, I -could- be far from the mark. I've only seen a handful of 6870x2, so certain people may hold value in it's rarity. Looking on ebay and google shopping, the lowest price is around $350, and I can buy Radeon 5970's for $250, which are MUCH more powerful cards.

Newegg were selling these brand new for $160 a while back, if I was US-based I'd have bought a dozen 
But yeah, on ebay and the like you can get $300 or equivalent without too much difficulty. Certainly wouldn't expect it to go below $250.

I had one for a little while and it ran at ~585Mhash/s, but with much poorer efficiency than a 7970 doing the same job

Wish I'd paid $160, I paid $599 each.  Solid cards.

Without an idea of what you are looking for, I doubt you'll get many serious offers.  And of course the longer you wait, the lower the price you'll get will go.  At this point, GenTarkin's offer looks over the top. Not sure you'd be able to get $150 for these right now.  Only 2.5 months or less left to block reward halving.

They're worth closer to $350 than $150 on ebay

Well, I'm assuming there's a reason he's not selling them on eBay.  No offense to you, but it gets tiring when someone mentions that "I can get higher on eBay".  And of course my response is, "Well why don't you just sell them on eBay?"

100 per card / 500 for all the cards. closer to asic less money can be made with gpu.

I have no idea, I would if they were mine

I was hoping to get a good offer here, most have been around $150.  I paid $500 for each, the $150 offer makes me want to cry. 

They are wicked little double-card miners.

I guess I'll just keep mining with them until the halving and then sell them ebay ;-)
