Shot in the dark - WTS a Radeon 3870

[Akucaen]

First off, Heatware here. I'm paypal verified as well, and that's the medium in which I'll accept payment.

I'm selling a GECUBE Radeon 3870 512MB, as available on Newegg here.

It was pulled in working order from the system to for an upgrade to my GTX260.
I have the original crossfire cable that came with it, as well as the DVI-HDMI, and other assorted converter cables as well. I do not, however, have the original box.

And pictures of the card here.

I'm asking for $60 (shipped), OBO. If anyone has any questions, feel free to post in thread or PM.

My cousin needs this card but only has PCI-E 16x Woulda bought it for him!

[Akucaen]

This is a PCI-Express 16x card.

2.0 though, he has an Emachine from 05 it won't run this card.

[Akucaen]

Unless the motherboard specifically freaks out on 2.0 cards, it will run fine. I'm using a Intel P35 chipset that only supports 1.0, my 2.0 GTX260 is working fine as well, as did this 3870. 2.0 cards are backwards compatible with 1.0 motherboards.

[Alishe]

Interesting, I had heard otherwise before, if this is the case I'll most likely take it.

[Alishe]

Sorry, he doesn't want to spend the money now. Just yesterday he was looking for this exact card, maybe he'll change his mind.

[Akucaen]

Any takers for $60?

How does one of these stand up to an 8800 GTS? I always end up getting out of the loop on graphics stuff and it's hard to find comparison details for stuff that isn't current tech.

[Akucaen]

The 3870 was basicly 90% of the 8800 speed for 70% of the price. That's why I bought it originally.
