Question: Binning GPU's

[Turbosheild]

Hey, one question regarding binning of GPU's.

I have 4 R9 270X cards that currently reside in my altcoin mining rig.  However, due to absurd energy prices in SoCal, mining may soon be irrelevant, and so I am planning on converting the mining rig into a gaming rig for myself.

So, my question, is it possible to personally bin/check which GPU is the better binned of the 4, as I can only run 2 of them in Crossfire, and would like to use the best 2 of the 4 cards in my personal rig.

Any and all help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Really the only way to check is by overclocking them and see which two over clock the best.

I would just sell all of them and get a 780 ti.

When you say, "and see which two over clock the best." you just mean to see which two are the  most stable at a high overclock?

 

I have only dabbled in OC'ing for gaming, and am not the most experienced in this subject. (only mildly overclocked my brothers 760)

Like he said. It's better to have One card than to have two in most cases (pun intended).

I don't think the bin really matters when selling it. Won't make much of a big price difference.

Yeah, it would be best to get rid of them all and get a 780/780Ti if you can afford it.
