hi all,
I have 2x gigabyte HD 7950 graphics cards and want to sell them in order to buy a R9 390x (I have a little extra money if need be) and I'm looking to see how much I could sell them for.
 
I'd say 100 each at most.

Also an RX 480 is a much better buy than a 390X right now.

I would still get the 970 over the RX 480, its a little cheaper and a little faster. I would interested in seeing the price and performance of the 1060.

Ok this was the cheapest 480 I found:

For 11 dollars, Still would go for the 970.

I can get having brand favoritism (obviously), but I don't see why you would ever get a 970 over a 480 right now. They're slightly slower, more expensive, worse DX12 and Vulkan performance, and are older architecture. If you want to go Nvidia just wait for the 1060. Buying a 970 now is foolish IMO. Availability on the 480 kinda sucks right now, but not too bad and they'll be readily available in the next couple weeks I'd wager.

Using Ebay prices to backup a pricing argument doesn't make much sense when the new prices on both cards are clearly better for the 480, especially if you get the 4GB version (like the 970 is). People on Ebay are just gouging the lack of stock at the moment.

Well for me in the uk and spain, the 970 is always cheaper, assumed it was the same in the US:

Who cares where you buy it from as long as its a reputable vender, he can buy this card if he wanted and I would always recommend shopping around for the best price.

Ah ok I as looking at Direct x 11 primarily where the 970 is a little faster most of the time, seems the 480 is a little faster most of the time using Vulkan, so I would have to agree the 480 for a little more is worth it.

Also dude I am no fanboy of any company, AMD, Intel, NVidia, I will have them all.

Yeah like I said, I would be interested in seeing the price and performance of the 1060.
