Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR Only problem I can see is that a 560 Ti isn't worth $250 new.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR Whatever. I'll auction it on eBay and people will buy it anyway.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR People go to Ebay for two reasons. Either to get rare stuff that's hard to find in person, or to get normal stuff cheaper than they would in stores.
I don't think your videocard falls under the first category.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR Check the completed listings on eBay. From the looks of it, you probably won't sell it, and if you do, it'll be for somewhere around $200.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR Which isn't that bad, mind you. And you can always cheat a bit and get the shipping costs a bit higher than they really need to be.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR True, but it looks like maybe one in ten actually sell at that price.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR I'd say keep the second card.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR If you keep your second card and your motherboard has 2 PCI-e slots, then you can dual SLI those suckers.  Just make sure beforehand that both can fit into your computer.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR I know that, and I do not plan to use SLI. From what I have heard it can be buggy and unreliable, and not even worth the effort. Furthermore, as far as I am aware, the motherboard I have selected is incompatible with SLI. As such, I won't be crossfiring my graphics cards.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR And you'd be ~200 dollars short.
