So a friend of mine has owed me $50 for a while now and offered me a 650 instead of the $50. Do you think I should get it and sell it for more than $50 or just get the money. I think the 650 is probably more than $50 still.

Sell it or use it has a PPU or a card to run extra monitors off of. I run a GT 610 in my system to lower the VRAM usage on my main card for the desktop.

2x 1080p 1x 1280x1024 uses 500mb of VRAM on the desktop for me.

They only go for about $40, maybe $50. And then you still have to pay for shipping. Take the cash instead.

 

 

 

 
 

It goes for $60-70 used on Ebay, so you will make en extra $10/20 if you get it sold.

 

I personally would go for the money. I honestly don't have any use for a 650 (and you don't either) and there's the possible chance of it not getting sold...don't want to go through that. Get the cash and don't think twice. 

 

I was thinking of trying to sell it locally so I would not lose money in shipping, ebay stuff. Do you think I might be able to squeeze $70 out of it?

I don't think you will, people try their damnedest to not pay more than what they want.
