How many from the lot are remaining? I'm interested in anywhere from 8-12 depending on price but I'm trying to figure out if I'll be charged duty at the border or what sort of hassle I'll have to go through for import. I'm located in Ontario, Canada (if you can give a shipping estimate).

How much for 4?  Shipped to Canada?

Send me a private message with your general location in Canada and I can get a quote .. I'll do $210 each for 4 cards ... the savings should basically cover shipping costs.

Not quite the right price point for mining (I sold off some 330Mhash 5830's for $120 while they were still hot), but a good deal for the gamer.


I did say I would entertain offers Wink

I figure that if I sell my used cards they will be cheaper than these which are unopened and new in the box.

Pic made me think of this:

We should have a gentleman's agreement to postpone the GPU arms race as long as we can for the good of the network.  It's much easer to get new users up to speed if they don't have to worry about GPU drivers and compatibility.  It's nice how anyone with just a CPU can compete fairly equally right now.

I will perhaps be selling my used cards as well. But for now I'm only interested in selling the new unused cards.

If I do sell my used cards, there will be plenty for sale. I currently have 89 in service.

I for sure want to get one of these at least.  It will take me a week or so to get to 40 BTC.  I just sold out.

Photo + where do you ship from? Escrow? Might be interested as I need to add on to my rigs too.

Present your idea of an escrow service. I'm not totally comfortable with escrow, but I can be persuaded.

BTW: I posted a pic in the original post.

I'm located in the Pacific Northwest region of the US. So shipping will be from that zone. I've found that I can very cost effectively ship lots of 5-15 cards for about $50 in my shipping zone ... I'll of course have to double check depending on where it goes to. I can most easily ship USPS or UPS.

I built a big cluster with the idea of putting 6 gpu's per machine. That didn't work out ... I ordered over 100 cards and have these remaining, still unopened in the box. These cards are the latest revision of the PCB which runs cooler than my previous rev cards.

The card features a dual bios which flashes easily and screw ups are easily remedied by flicking to the alternate bios. Unlocking these cards has worked about 60% of the time for me and I can provide a proper bios with the unlock, but I will not unlock the card before shipping. Flashing the bios is your own deal, your own risk.

Stock clocks of these cards is 800 mhz, I've bumped them up to typically 900 mhz and some even higher. I typically can get about 360+ mhash/sec from a shader locked card and just under 400 mhash/sec from an unlocked card.

The card features a large heatsink and dual fans. In my setup I'm running 20 machines each with 4 cards with no risers. Cards are very close together only using a plastic DVI dust cap to space the cards from each other. I've ran this setup for 9 months with no fan failures. I've now survived an entire summer (up to 95F ambient) and a winter running outdoors (down to 25F ambient).

I'll accept 40 btc (exchange rate dependent) or $220 MTGOX USD cash redeem code per card. I'll do PayPal also, but you pay the fees. Shipping costs depend on where the card is going. I will of course combine shipping for purchase of multiple cards. I will also entertain discounted offers for multiple cards.

I will provide a receipt that should provide full warranty (unopened, new in box, etc) of 2 years. I can only assure warranty from the data of my purchase in August. But in short you can rest assured as even in a pinch I would be willing to file RMA via proxy if it was needed.

Here is the output for cgminer running on a system with 4 of these current revision cards; The second card is shader locked. The other 3 are unlocked. Mind you the temperatures and fan load are at 55F ambient.

This is a legit, no scam offer. Catch me in irc on FreeNode in #ozcoin. My handle is sunbreak or sunbreak2.

Here is a pic of the new cards next to my cluster. Sorry, not the best pic, but evidence none the less.
