Title: Open box 7950 on eBay- 197.99 + Shipping
Post by: Internetlad on Mon, 28 January 2013, 15:25:43

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Powercolor-Radeon-HD-7950-800MHZ-3GB-5-0GBPS-GDDR5-PCI-E-Video-Card-67619-/150987503526?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item23278e77a6

Found this while looking for a good deal on a 7950. The two things that put me off is that it's 25 bucks priority shipping to the states and it's powercolour's single fan cooler. If you were looking to watercool, this would be your boy.

Seriously, if it was any other brand i'd be on it, but I really don't like the taste of powercolour.

Shipping is only $18 for me, but I don't like powercolor either. They taste okay, but the best part about them is their PCB color, which I call "'power' red", and this has a black PCB.

So I guess you could say I just don't like the color of their power.

Racist.

I'm still on the fence about getting this. Honestly it's still a 7950, and even after shipping it's still almost 30% off the price of a regular 7950 (at ~300 bucks)

EDIT: nvm already sold. I'll be keeping my eye on newegg's outlet store from hereonout though.
