5970 - $300-$350
6990 - $450-$550
yah, $300-$350 is what i was thinking for 5970's as well.

but i was told by someone else that nobody on these forums would buy them at those prices, and im inclined to agree

esp after failing to sell 5830 for $75 and 5870 for $135 (both including priority shipping charges), when they go for about 25-40% more than that on ebay or amazon, which makes it more profitable to sell there, even after fees are deducted AND including risks associated from chargebacks

The market here is a bit weird and it fluxuates based on what's available and mining news. You can also sell on the tech. Site forums, there is usually a lot of activity there (hardocp/anandtech/others).

Have a 6990 mining less then 2 months running stock clock but with memory dropped to 550

pulling 800mhs temps around 75c

2 x 5970's with danger den water blocks running 4-5 months
clocks at 810mhz mem 550
doing 700 mhs at around 45c

5970 stock air running 2-3 months
clocks at 790 mhz mem 250
doing 680mhs at around 70c

What would you pay in btc each?

thanks

i would take off the water blocks, put back on the other stuff, sell the waterblocks and 5970 on ebay, the last 48 hrs they've had an avg sell value of a bit over $400.  about $350 after fees if you dont have a shop.  still more than you'd get from anyone on here, i think.

for the 6990, you could possibly get a competitive price for it on this forum
