Would it be worth it to purchase two EBAY (US) R9 290X'S?

Would it be worth it to do this and use it for a rig? I would most likely put some G10'S and stuff on them if they were reference, but what I could do is somehow  kill the card and have the warrenty on it and get a non mined one? Because If I did that, It'd be quite a steal and really nice. Killing suggestions welcome.

hmm, people shouldn't be so open about criminal acts such as fraud...

Kill it under warrenty of course. Not some random fake thing, because they are already pretty much dead from mining.

Do you plan on crytpocurrency mining or using it for 4k gaming? Otherwise I wouldn't bother getting two. 

 

EDIT:

 

You could buy them, get them fraudulently replaced, then sell one of them?

Assuming he has a 120Hz monitor. Personally, I'm perfectly fine with gaming at 60+ FPS. ;o

Warranty only covers the card when you braking it in normal usage scenario. If you are deliberately trying to break the card then that is not a normal usage scenario.

It is fraud.
